the .gifhaven minecraft server

Mostly rule-less* near-vanilla survival server. – No warps, and only one teleport, which is an item that you have to craft, that brings you to spawn. – A player-driven supply and demand economy. – No claims, no factions. Feel free to team up however you want, and feel free to raid wherever you want. – A rank-up system that doesn’t ruin the progress of the game. – Rise to the top with McMMO! – Create legendary items with a plugin that allows you to enchant beyond the level cap! – No pay-to-win donations!

*Rule-less as in, you can do anything you want outside of the spawn as long as you’re not cheating or harming the server.
