TheVille SMP is a public whitelist survival server that started as a private world with friends and now more people can join.
It is focused on PvP and PvE and dungeoneering. The world generation is really unique and there are new structures to find. You can also run into custom bosses and custom items plus a custom story mode. It still tries to feel like vanilla and not like a total overhaul.
Exploring matters a lot because the farther you go from spawn the more dangerous it gets. You can play it safe near spawn or take the risk and push outward.
The staff seems really accommodating and the owner says they listen a lot and will add new things or change features to keep it interesting. The goal is to build a fun community and make new friends.

It has some simple quality of life like /tpa and homes that are vote based. The server is hosted on a dedicated machine in Germany and it stays stable around 20 TPS most of the time.
