World Of Apollo

We are running a very active Vanilla 1.5.1 server and are looking for mature players. There are some plugins installed to combat x-ray and stealing. All blocks must be acquired by mining, buying, selling and trading. Creative Mode is not allowed and will not be used by admins. Admins will not give blocks either.

The world currently has a border at 7,000 blocks and the border will be expanded with future Minecraft updates that include new biomes and ores that will only generate in new chunks.
