Enigma Servers Minecraft Server is a Factions PVP based experience, basically anything goes.
Griefing is allowed, stealing is definitely encouraged.
Please note, this is not exactly a child friendly server. Children are more than welcome to play, but please keep in mind that the community is ran by adults from various locations around the world, and in result, this server is not intended to be something where they have to watch what they say.

[size=5]Server Rules[/size]
These rules are for staff convenience..
[spoiler]
Rules:[list=1]
[*]PVP, Griefing and Stealing are allowed and encouraged.
[*]No spamming, advertising or general chat shenanighans with the purpose of irritating other players.
[*]Swearing is allowed.
[*]Complaining about people that arent breaking these general rules is not allowed.
Actually, complaining to staff for any reason is mute-worthy, stop being a kid.
[*]Asking for any sort of staff rank or asking about any sort of staff rank will be met with a mute, just dont do it.
[*]Hacking is quite obviously not allowed.
[/list]
[/spoiler]
[size=5]Faction Rules[/size]
In order to keep gameplay entertaining, there are a few rules for factions raiding. These are merely for player experience but will be enforced either way.
[spoiler]
[size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Prerequisite[/font][/size]
[size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Raiding is the act of playe[/font][/size]rs from your faction attacking another factions base for what ever reason you deem necessary. This is the only instance where the term “raiding” is valid. Attacking unclaimed land is just considered griefing, which is allowed either way.
Rules:[list=1]
[*]In order to raid a faction, you must first be enemies with them.
This is solely for player experience. Youre allowed to go full barbarian on the server and raid everyone you see, but dont expect to get a reputation where people want to play with you. Reasoning behind raids can forge great alliances and even greater wars.
[*]In order for a raid to be deemed valid, you must have at least 3 members of your faction participating.
2-1. Raiding alongside another faction is encouraged, but each faction MUST have 3 players each.
This encourages players to forge alliances and keep raids interesting in the long run.
[*]This is not exactly a rule, just a gameplay preference..
Joining a faction in order to spy is allowed, but dont be childish about it.
If youre going to become 007 of the faction world, at least be creative and persistent about it. Dont just join and yell “hurrr duurrr, faction coords.”. Earn players trust, become a member of said faction, then destroy the lives of those who once trusted you.

![★HOMETOWN★ Survival and Minigames - [Anti Grief] [No PvP] [Minigames] [Mature Community]](https://minecraft-servers-listing.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/★HOMETOWN★-Survival-and-Minigames-Anti-Grief-No-PvP-Minigames.gif)
Come on, make yourself at home.
Here in Hometown, we are a simple, but very well made server with a community unlike any other. The spawn is unique, but also simple and easy to navigate. We believe Multiplayer is for playing with others and with your friends, so we try our best for every player to connect with others by allowing players to have the ability to teleport to others. Here in hometown we try our best to keep you and your things safe. With our anti grief plugins, any grief will be undone; chests will be protected,PvP will be disabled, and horses will have locks. We also offer the user a variety of minigames to play. With all that, there’s also a community controlled economy with user made shops in our widely unique marketplace. What are you waiting for? Make yourself at home!
In Hometown, we try to add some progression and authority to the server with a wide variety of ranks that are not overpowered or ruin the survival gameplay experience.
Here are some of the ranks which you can read more on after you join the server.
Guest, Player, AdvPlayer, Trusted, Guardian.
We can guarantee that every Hometown staff member is handpicked and are very mature and friendly with vast knowledge of the commands and plugins we have to create the best experience possible. You can ask any staff member for help anytime. We don’t have abusive admins or kids as staff. In fact, every staff member plays legitimate survival like everyone else with no spawned items. We don’t do drop parties when the server is full, we don’t beg for members, we don’t spawn out diamonds if you vote for us. All 100% survival and fun.

Are you seeking a tight-knit, engaging Minecraft server with an emphasis on quality over quantity? Look no further! Our server is opening soon, and we're offering spots for dedicated players who are eager to contribute and dive into a rich Minecraft world.
We've been running since 2018, granted we have had our downtimes but through the years we have picked up many players that have formed close friendships (some have even met irl!). We'd all love for you to have a chance to join us!
Why Join Us?
Selective Player Base: We're not aiming for a massive crowd; we're looking for elite players who are serious about gameplay and committed to creating a vibrant community. Expect a strict application process as we build a team of like-minded enthusiasts.
Community-Driven Rules: Our server rules are designed with input from our community, ensuring a fair and enjoyable environment. We prioritize respect and collaboration, and every member has a say in how our world evolves.
Collaborative Island Build: For the first month, we're launching a unique challenge where everyone builds together on a single amplified island The goal is to foster a more communal gaming experience, where players engage in collaborative efforts instead of spreading out and rushing to dominate resources. Picture a world where diverse building styles converge, and everything is communal, adding an extra layer of intrigue and creativity.
Exciting World Seed: We’ve handpicked an amazing seed for the server that you’re going to love. Details will be shared a couple of days before launch to keep things fair—no early claims here, so get ready for a fresh start!
No Land Claims Needed: We operate on a trust-based system backed by CoreProtect, meaning no cumbersome land claims. We foster a trustworthy community where disputes are swiftly handled.
We’re launching next Saturday – exact time to be decided based on everyone's availability.

Exodus Returns is a tiny community server based around a group of players who have travelled across the multiverse of vanilla servers to eventually get our own place! We were once a clan of sorts, but these days we are friends and looking to add to that! We are cooperative builders, a lot of us are older players from UK, USA, Germany, Indonesia… all over! Exo itself has been going since 2021, though the server is a new thing.
The server runs on fabric, we have about 25 in the discord and about 5 are currently active on the server building stuff right now. Just a couple of mods for performance, as well as heads and dynamap. We built a spawn area and have a few settlements within 4k of spawn, but its a big and unexplored map with the most up to date game version.
Player base is a good mix of highly experienced folk and newbies', mainly looking for people who want to get into the game or people who just want somewhere stable and free from agro to build stuff. Redstone welcome, mega-builds welcome.

Hello everyone!

We're just starting out and trying to build our community and playerbase, so if you want a fun and chill environment, and small community this is the place for you!
If you are interested just join my discord server at the link below and it'll explain the details on how to join!

We reset last week for our new 1.21 season 🙂
I started Elysia several years ago, and I've since had the privilege of watching it grow and flourish into such an incredible community. There're players who've been here since day 1, and players I've become close friends with.
Server hosting was a hobby I picked up in 2013 as a kid hoping to just find a few people to play Minecraft with, and between then and now I've ran several servers big and small but none have stuck in my heart quite like Elysia has. This server will stay running until there's nobody left playing this game.
While marked as semi-vanilla, the actual experience is identically vanilla. We just use a few plugins to prevent grief, hook into discord, have a web map, etc.
Elysia is a whitelisted serverwhich is an important filter in making sure everyone you'll meet is friendly, accepting and an overall pleasant addition.
LGBTQ+ Friendly is a core belief of ours, and inclusivity is something we won't compromise on.
16+ Dedicated Players. While in the past we've had some friendly <16s, as the original community grows older and as we've shifted directions (with features like voicechat) a higher age requirement just made sense. It's also provided a much more relaxed vibe and allowed us to host events like a several hour long Minecraft DND night (which we did a few times last season).
With that said though, we have an array of activity and skill levels ranging from casual players to people that clearly must have longer days than I given how incredible some of their projects are.
Here's a video I made 3 years ago playing a game built by a long-term Elysia player
Keep inventory, different modes than survival, plugins that change the vanilla experience, plugin/money based economy, donator perks with advantages
If Elysia sounds right for you, apply for our whitelist here, then join the Discord waiting room server where you'll open a ticket to be reviewed within 24 hours (almost always sooner!)
