UneasyVanilla Semi Anarchy Survival

Active StaffAnarchy Styleanti cheat focusCasual SurvivalCommunity ProjectsGriefed Spawnhardcore explorerslawless gameplaylong-term worldno pay towinplayer made worldpvp allowedRelaxed playerssemi anarchysurvival buildingSurvival ChallengeTight-Knit Communityunexpected encountersVanilla ExperienceVanilla Survival

UneasyVanilla is a Minecraft server that mixes semi anarchy with normal survival so it feels wild but not totally crazy.

The world has been running for over 4 years so everything feels really lived in. Spawn is totally wrecked and covered in lavacasts so your first challenge is just escaping the chaos. Once you get out you can travel far away build bases and explore like a normal survival world.

The server tries to stay close to the original Minecraft vision so it feels very vanilla. There are rules but they are simple and mostly there to keep the server running well and to keep cheaters out. Staff are active and ban hackers fast so fights and raids feel more fair.

The community is pretty tight and relaxed. You can run into random players start alliances or get into surprise battles while exploring. Some people team up for big building projects and others just wander and survive on their own.

If you want a long term vanilla world with a rough spawn and a bit of lawless energy UneasyVanilla is a cool place to try.

CobbleCove SMP is a relaxed community driven Minecraft realm. It is made for people who just want to play survival with others and chill. There are no cheats so everyone plays fair and earns their stuff.

Spawn is also the official shopping district. Players build their own shops and trade with each other. The whole marketplace grows over time and sits right in the center of the world. It feels like a little town that everyone helps build.

The server has a long term world so your base and projects are meant to last. People work on community projects and big builds together. The whole vibe is friendly respectful and calm.

They are looking for all kinds of players. Builders explorers redstone players and casual players who just love Minecraft. If you want a survival realm with a player run economy and a chill community CobbleCove Season One is all about that.

FrostboundSMP 18+ Cozy Semi Vanilla

Adult-onlycasual gameplaychill survivalcommunity-drivenevent focusedfriendly vibesinclusive spacelaid backlightweight pluginslong-term worldLow DramaNew serverplayer friendshipsrelaxed rulesSemi VanillaSmall CommunityStaff FriendlySurvival Focusweekly eventswholesome chat

FrostboundSMP is a small semi vanilla server that is still pretty new. It is meant for players who are 18 or older and it is only for non binary players and people who identify as female. The vibe feels calm and welcoming and it is not super sweaty or hardcore.

From what I have seen most of the server is simple survival with a light semi vanilla style. They host weekly events so there is always something to look forward to and it helps people get to know each other better. The server is not crowded and the most people online at once so far was about eight but there are around thirty people in the community already.

If you want a place that feels more like a small friend group instead of a giant public server this one fits that pretty well. It is nice for players who just want to chill and build and hang out with other older players in a space made for non binary and women players.

This is a chill Java SMP that uses a vanilla plus style modpack. It feels like regular Minecraft but with a few extra things to make it more fun.

There is a claim system so your builds are safe and protected. PVP is allowed but only outside of claims so you do not lose your stuff in your own base. The server owner says the world will never reset so you can work on long term builds without worrying.

There are about ten active players right now and around twenty members total. It feels like a small and relaxed community where people just play and hang out together.

Ballistic SMP Factions With Custom Lore Weapons

Admin Eventsanti cheatbalanced PvPcompetitive survivalcustom weaponsEvent BasedFair Gameplayfantasy combatfresh startLore Focusedlore friendlymap warfareno paywallplayer armiesSemi Vanillasemi-factionsSmall CommunitySurvival Factionsteam warfareunique armor

Ballistic SMP is a semi faction style Minecraft server that is built around combat and lore. The whole idea is that there are four special weapons and each one has its own abilities and its own story. There is also a unique armor set that is connected to those weapons and to the lore.

The server is trying really hard to be fair. They say there is no pay to win and they want a cheater free environment. It is meant to be a well run server that feels unique and not like every other copy paste SMP.

Right now the world is a 3k by 3k map and that might change later. There will be admin run events so players have stuff to do besides just grinding. Because the server is not open yet everyone who joins at the start will be on the same level and nobody will be super stacked already.

There is no set way you have to play. You can follow the lore and get into the story of the weapons and armor or you can just build the biggest army you can and try to rule the map. They are looking for about ten more players to start the SMP so it should feel like a tight small community.
