The Pen is a classic prison server that is trying to feel like the older days. It is barebones and grindy and you do not start out rich. You begin with basic tools and leather armor and you work your way up.
The main loop is mining then smelting your ores then moving through PVP zones to sell at the Commissary. It is not an instasell kind of place and you are expected to fight for your progress sometimes.
There are ranks from A through H then Parolee then Citizen. Once you hit the top you can prestige for special rewards. You can also do quests for extra cash or special items.
Guards are a real part of the server. They help protect new players and enforce contraband. Swords and potions are illegal and guards will PVP you if they catch you with them. If you act up you can even end up in solitary confinement.
Making money is not just mining. There is custom fishing and you can rent a cell or a plot to store stuff build and run a shop. There are special custom plants that are illegal in the prison and you can grow them for profit if you do not get caught. You can also use the auction house sell to other players and put bounties on enemies. There are parkour challenges around the prison too.

Custom Plugins and Datapacks Dev For Hire
I found a developer who is for hire and also looking for friends. They say they have 12 years of experience and they show some past work.
They can make custom plugins and datapacks for basically any gamemode like survival, skyblock, lifesteal, prison, smp, or minigames. They also build Discord bots with whatever features and integrations you need. Pricing is negotiable and depends on how big and complex your project is.
They also say they respond and communicate during the whole process. Revisions are okay and they seem chill to work with.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPAXSAR NETWORK SPM Survival Economy Wars

The economy is meant to be balanced and fair. There is a claim system so you can protect your place. They also run events a lot and you can get special rewards.
The staff is active and pays attention. The server says it has strong infrastructure and low lag. They are in a new opening phase so early players can take the advantage and help shape the market.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPGoblin SMP Straightforward Vanilla Survival
I found Goblin SMP and it is a simple survival server that is made for long term play. It feels like a place where people actually build and stick around.
The world is huge with a 500000 by 500000 border and it expands every month so new land keeps showing up over time. That makes exploring feel worth it and you can still claim a good spot early.
The gameplay stays clean and focused. It is player driven survival with building exploration and community stuff.
They are strict about playing fair. No xray or esp or hacked clients and no exploiting or trying to lag the server. You are supposed to respect other players and not ruin the experience.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPThe Grove Cozy Forever World
The Grove is a small group server with around 20 chill people who like cozy Minecraft. They mostly build together and just hang out while they play.
It is an 18 plus server so it is made for people who do not play every single day. The world is meant to be a forever world that everyone keeps working on over time.
There are big community projects and lots of megabuilds happening. There is a shopping district at spawn and the server uses gravestones so dying is less annoying.
It is lightly modded with stuff like Farmers Delight Mr Crayfish furniture Travelers Backpack and Bloomcraft with mooblooms. The community is LGBTQ friendly and expects you to be the same. It runs on 1.21.11 and started in March 2025.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPChill No Reset Towny SMP
GamerHub Towny is a new Towny server that started as a streaming project and now it is trying to grow into a bigger place.
The world has no resets and the vibe is meant to be chill. Griefing and stealing are not allowed so you can build without feeling stressed.
It has an ingame ranking system that uses ingame money. You can use dynmap to look around and there are player warps plus player shops. The server also has a sell only server shop. Jobs and MCMMO are there too.
