Best Longterm Minecraft Servers

Townscraft is a whitelisted semi-vanilla SMP server with a towny twist that launched in April 2020. As the name implies, the server has an emphasis on towns. Each town contains houses, shops, and farms. You can join an already existing town, create new towns with three or more members, or choose to be a nomad, but it’s strongly advised to live in a town to get the best experience.
  
  The server does not use the towny plugin, it runs purely on a vanilla player-made system. This is to give it a more organic feel and not have to deal with the hassle of landclaims.

  All types of players are welcome, as long as you don’t plan on breaking the rules. We don’t care if you are a builder, redstoner, veteran, or noob, there will always be a town that accepts you.

  There are no major gameplay altering plugins like /warp or /tpa. The four exceptions are one person sleep, the ender dragon being unable to destroy blocks, fire spread being off, and the ability to see a horse’s stats
.
  The server has Coreprotect, so if something is stolen or griefed, the culprit can be identified and the action can be rolled back in just a few minutes.

  The server is over 2 years old so you can be sure it’s here to stay, and that it has a long history, which goes all the way back to 2016.

  Resets are spaced very far apart. Our first season ran for 20 months, with our second season starting with the launch of 1.18 and all its changes to the world generation. So you can rest assured that your projects won’t be wiped every few months by constant resets.
