SmartieSMP is a server that really sticks to vanilla survival. There are no gameplay changing plugins and no homes or teleport commands. You do everything the way Mojang made it so nothing is handed to you and you have to earn all your stuff.
The server has no pay to win and no crazy commands that break immersion. Player skill actually matters so things like farming redstone pvp and base defense are important. The world is shaped by the players so builds conflicts alliances and legacies all come from the community.
Staff are active and fair and they only enforce the essential rules. There is just one small quality of life tweak which is a simple combat log system to keep pvp fair.
The Ender Dragon fight is already planned as a big milestone that will happen on a Saturday at 18 00 German time with other time zones listed too. Players are encouraged to join early gear up and be part of that moment.
The server runs on Java Edition 1.21.x and uses a whitelist that you join through discord. They are looking for active players who enjoy a pure vanilla feel and also people who want to help grow the project. If you are tired of plugin heavy pay to win servers this place is all about real survival and community.
Syndicate SMP Community Events Daily
I found a server called SyndicateSMP and it is all about playing survival with a friendly community.
They run events every day and you can win fun prizes. It feels like a place where people actually hang out and do stuff together.
You can start building right away if you want or you can grind for your items. Either way you can play how you like.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPSolarion SMP 18+ Semi Vanilla Survival
Solarion SMP is a whitelisted Java survival server for 18+ players who want a long term world and a real community. It is semi vanilla and inspired by Hermitcraft so people build big stuff and work together and also do their own thing.
Season 7 starts with a fresh world reset on 01/09/2026 so it is a clean slate for new bases and big projects. Seasons usually run about 6 to 8 months so you have time to actually finish builds and farms.
There are community districts and player made games like minigames parkour and puzzles plus shared builds and server events. The vibe is chill and hands off with admins and it is more about natural moments than forced lore.
It runs on Java 1.21.x and has extras like optional proximity voice chat a live 3D map grief rollback with CoreProtect graves for death item recovery armor stand tools player sleep head drops ImageFrame GSit custom music discs and performance stuff for world gen and lag.

RedLine Season 2 is a semi anarchy survival server that just reopened with a full reset. It runs on 1.21.11 and it is built for people who like real risk and real fights.
The world border is 12k by 12k. Griefing stealing killing and prisoning are allowed. Hacking duping and exploiting are not allowed to a point and they explain more in the server.
There are no easy commands like sethome ah or claim so you have to travel and protect your stuff the hard way. There is no pay to win but you can buy cosmetic tiers.
The server has a RedLine System where you can collect special weapons like maces swords and axes with names and skins if you use their custom resource pack. Each set has one of each weapon so people race to craft them.
Ender chests are nerfed to one row so you cannot hide everything. Netherite is unbanned and there are new kits like a Netherite SMP kit and a Trident Spear kit. The nether opens a few days after launch.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPPermanent Vanilla SMP With Chill Events
I found a vanilla Minecraft SMP that started a few days ago and it already has a solid playerbase. The world is meant to be permanent so you can build big stuff and keep it there.
Most people are in their 20s and everyone seems pretty chill. The staff also wants to run small events like civilization and some modded and unmodded events besides the main vanilla world.
They want more people so it can feel mid sized and so there can be more builds going up all the time.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPJoin Our Semi Vanilla SMP Test
I found a small semi vanilla SMP that is in testing right now.
They plan to fully start in about a week so it feels like a good time to hop in early and help check things out.
It is survival multiplayer with that mostly normal vanilla feel.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
