Best Mulitplayer Minecraft Servers
Authentic Vanilla
- Launch Day: Thursday. July 18th at 5:00PM PCT, if you can't make the launch don't worry, the world will be here to stay, so there is as much time as you need to catch up.
- Authentic Vanilla is Java Edition Minecraft in its purest form. It is a "Vanilla Anarchy" server, meaning pretty much anything aside from hacking or exploits are allowed. The world, which will never be reset, is whatever you want it to be. Anything you can do in Mojang's intended vanilla is fair game, you need not be bogged down by landclaims or building requirements or suffocating world borders. But be ware, the freedom to create also comes with the freedom to destroy, so keep what you make safe.
- To keep the server as authentically vanilla as possible, the server will be running Fabric rather than the more widely used, but much more invasive PaperMC. This means that farms that are known to not be multiplayer compatible due to PaperMC's intrusive optimizations should work here, without it being at the expense of server performance.
- The server will always be running the latest version as soon as possible, and will be launching on 1.21
- There are only 4 simple rules as follows:
- No hacked clients or other mods that give an unfair advantage
- No use of glitches or exploits to gain an unfair advantage
- Do not harm the server's integrity through DDOS attacks or lag machines
- What happens in the block game stays in the block game, do not threaten people's real life well being
- IP: 185.73.243.72:25579 – Currently running a temporary world to test functionality of the server, feel free to join and meet some people early!

RSMC: Vanilla+
Welcome to arcaneSMP
arcaneSMP is a server where you can chill, and play Minecraft with newly found friends, or even old friends if you want to invite them. arcaneSMP is a Whitelisted Minecraft Community. arcaneSMP is a vanilla based server with some quality of life plugins/data-packs.

We have put a whitelist application in place to ensure maturity, and responsibility from our members. arcaneSMP is welcoming to everyone, and we promise you WILL fit in here with us! So if you're looking to chill, and play Minecraft with friends you've come to the right place.
Our staff team has many years of experience, and previously ran a SMP server of nearly 4 years. We are a growing, vibrant community that has many checks in place to ensure a fun, and respectable experience. Thank you for your interest in arcaneSMP!
Quick Access Links:
Shopping District & Community
Our shopping district is a big aspect of our server. We currently have shops sprouting up left and right, and we hope that you decide to make a shop in our district. The community part of our server is of great importance, and the Shopping District is how you can ensure you are part of that.

How does whitelisting work?
Once you join the Discord Server you will be sent to our how-to-join channel, this channel will give you the brief run down and then you can find the apply button in said channel. At the end of every season *ALL* whitelists are removed BUT you will be granted a previously whitelisted role. It is as simple as requesting to be re-whitelisted for the new season to get your whitelist back. We do this to try and manage activity and ensure people aren't just sitting in the Discord with the server muted.
BudderCraft
We're an in-development/beta server dedicated to 3 main points:
- Provide a variety of feature-rich modes
- Strict prevention of all forms of cheating, no matter the caliber
- A community that is friendly no matter the skill level. a.k.a no toxic behavior.
We try to provide a variety of content, however given how small the development team is (at the moment, only 3 builders and 1 plugin developer), updates and changes will take a long time. Basically every mode is being re-imagined (Our first of these will be Tower Defense coming out this month!). Given this nature, features, playerdata, and basically everything else isn't perfectly stable, and may change in a flash. Now is the perfect time to come playtest and not only help grow our community, but to help find issues and propose new ideas.
BudderCraft is extremely strict on preventing cheating of any kind. Due to this, no mods (except those listed towards the end) are allowed, and this will never change (except potentially for Fabric, Forge and Lunar in the far future when we can limit their functionality). No bedrock modding will ever be allowed mostly due to console users having no legal way of obtaining them. Any intentional ways to get around this will result in a permanent, unpardonable ban. However mods aren't the only way to cheat. Any other forms, weather with ways of automation (hacks, mods, resource packs, we don't allow them atm, but a whitelist feature will be added someday) or not (game exploits, alt accounts, "win-trading" – where people in competitive modes play for a specific result rather than trying to win individually, and many more), all cheating rule breaks will almost certainly result in an unpardonable ban. Any form of piracy will also be given the same treatment. Since Minecraft isn't considered abandonware (meaning its no longer sold anymore), you cannot pirate/steal it, and there is no excuse that can be made to justify it.
A central point to a fun online game is to only allow fun and friendly people to play it. Anyone being rude for no reason, whether in a competitive environment or not, will not be tolerated whatsoever, especially if it involves personal attacks against specific traits of the person (race, sexuality, gender, etc.). While there is a way to breach this unpunished, not only does everyone who can see the content have to have explicitly said they're ok with it, but mods and admins can disallow it for any reason (mostly to prevent people from harassing others behind their back). Further info about this exception can be found under Non-ruling terms in /warp Rules
Other small points:
- 1.9+ style PvP. 1.8 pvp is over a decade old at this point, if you haven't gotten used to it yet, skill issue. Some changes to the combat system do exist, such as making ender crystals harmless and when 1.21 comes out, nerfing the stupidly-overpowered mace with as much as a 91% damage reduction with a damage cap.
- there is a very quick section once you join for the first time. You must complete it to continue, and cannot chat or send commands (except /helpop) until you do so. It only takes 1 minute, if that. It only exists to filter out bots and people who have no ability to read (since it features things I had to have answered all the time).
- large scale farms are strictly prohibited. We believe all these massive farms that generate double-chests worth of items per minute ruins the economy and in the case of Factions, kills all strategy, since you would be basically forced to build these or you would stand 0 chance, and who likes a strategy game where only 1 strategy is viable? You can view an outdated list (will be updated come 1.21) of every banned farm under rule 9 in /warp Rules, but the common rule of thumb, if it seems hacky, requires an elaborate setup, or was never intended to be renewable, then its not allowed. Some common banned farms are iron farms, gold farms, raid farms, gunpowder farms, and most xp farms.
- If you are unsure about something on the server, rather than bothering busy staff, use our tutorials (either /warp HowToPlay or /help. Most modes have a "how to play" hologram at their respective spawnpoint). Staff are allowed to ignore help requests that these things answer and even mute players who repeatedly ask.
- Joining our discord is not required but highly recommended. It is very helpful for posting/getting feedback and update/uptime info. You can get our discord link by using /discord on the server (we aren't posting the link here as joining the minecraft server is a requirement to join anyways, so you might as well do that first)
If you're ready to check us out, join with the IP below. We always run on the latest version (as every server should), however it may take a week or two to update versions once a new one releases.
IP(Java and Bedrock): play.buddercraft.net

We are a small group of friends who have recently come back into Minecraft after a bit of a hiatus who would like to find some more friends to play with long-term! We are a couple of weeks into the world now but we hope that new players won’t find it too hard to catch up to us. We are hoping to expand our tight-knit community of friends, and have some fun playing minecraft together! We would prefer more mature players (preferably 18+). If you're looking for a long term community where you can play games, make friends, and build awesome things, this is the server for you!
I want our server to be a place where people can work together on cool builds and projects, do some light roleplay or even just hang out and have fun! We are also open to playing other games such as party games (e.g jackbox), mc minigames and sometimes even movie nights, so it won't just be minecraft all the time. I hope this post is enticing enough for you to consider joining us!

The ‘Minelanders
⛏ The 'Minelanders ⛏
Server address: mc.minelanders.com
Version: 1.21 [Java Edition – Bedrock Compatible]
Discord:[[https://discord.gg/QeBkd3Z
Overview: The 'Minelanders started in 2019 and have been operating every year since! We launched the 6th Edition of the server last month! In this version, we've been graciously accepted by a cozy Gnomish Town in a lovingly crafted community built spawn. We're a server with plenty to offer! We believe that Minecraft can be political and strategic when other players get involved. So whether you are interested in building grand designs, griefing and PvP, growing an influential clan, running a commercial empire, or even just playing some Minecraft with a regular crowd, you are a part of something bigger than just yourself. Feel free to join the Discord, explore our community built spawn, and talk with the active community to see if you’re interested in playing on the server. And any time you're ready to start – survival is only 50 blocks away. Hope to see you playing on the 'Minelanders soon!
Community Nights!
Every couple weeks we host a custom made maps/ events for the community! Escape rooms, capture the flag, adventure maps, and more! These events are separate from survival, but offer an awesome opportunity to engage with the community and experience Minecraft in a new way. Many have been created by players on the server!
Vanilla Reimagined
General Information We love the potential of vanilla Minecraft but feel some aspects of the game have not been properly balanced to allow for vanilla to flourish. Through the use plugins and extensive player feedback we have rebalanced Elytras, autofarms, and more. No longer is there one "right" way to play, as we have allowed for all sorts of other forms of gameplay to be valid!
Features
- We offer plot protection in four sizes for in-game currency. You have to earn them! Note: Plots intentionally do NOT protect chests – only blocks.
- We have player shop chests available to sell things to other players. Our admin shops are already set up for players to earn money.
- We have clans, which allow you to team up with existing players or make your own clan with your friends.
- The map size is limited to keep players relatively close – but it is still spacious with a 6k block diameter, which was just expanded with the release of 1.21 . The Nether has been increased in size (3:1 ratio rather than 8:1) to compensate for the smaller map.
- Donations to keep the server running are welcome, but give no in game advantages.
Rules:
- Play in good faith
- Be respectful of other players
- No asking for stuff, advertising, or being annoying
- Griefing is allowed, Lavacasting is not
- No cheating
- Alt accounts must be known to staff
- No releasing personal information about another player
- Circumventing intended server behavior is prohibited
