The results from our poll are in, and weve listened loud and clear. Our community is split between players who love OP mechanics and those who prefer a pure vanilla experience. Many long-time players enjoy transferring items with /GV and keeping what they worked hard to earn across servers. Equally, many of you feel that cross-server transfers dilute the early-game progression and can spoil the launch experience of a fresh world.

With that in mind, were launching a brand-new Vanilla SMP designed for players who want classic gameplay - no OP items, minimal restrictions, and a focus on exploration, survival, and community. Weve lifted most crafting restrictions and trimmed back extras so the experience feels fresh for new and veteran players alike.

What to Expect
Balanced survival, clean economy, and fair progression - without OP shortcuts.

Server Features:

• Redesigned Rank Kits: Every rank has refreshed, balanced kits - including a new Dirt kit with full starter armor and tools for a smoother beginning.


• Mob Spawners Behave Naturally: Spawners place mobs on top; farm their drops and EXP the classic way.


• Claim Blocks via Voting: Bonus claim blocks come from vote rewards and vote party crates - not the shop - keeping land protection fair.


• Trade Your Extras: Convert unused bonus claim blocks into a tradable /voucher to share or sell.


• Mob Tokens (Vote Party Reward): Turn a full mob stack (currently 500) into a single living mob with AI for targeted farming or display.


• Player Bounties: Create bounties on player heads to spice up late-game challenges.


• Thoughtful PvP Options: Global PvP with keep inventory for anyone using /pvptoggle, plus a dedicated warp PVP arena (no keep inventory) for high-stakes combat.


• Fractals (Mystery Item): A light-touch, fun collectible that doesnt break progression.
