Best Semivanilla Minecraft Servers

Post date November 2, 2020

This is a survival server that’s a mash between anarchy and moderated. Like most anarchy style servers, griefing is allowed and it offers an experience closer to vanilla Minecraft. There’s no jail or spawn protections or a team of moderators with strict rules, it’s mostly a free-for-all and everybody self-governs themselves. It has a lot in common with total anarchy and it’s entirely player-run. You’ll find no structures setup by the admin.

Despite that, certain toxic behavior such as bullying the actual players, self-promotion not related to the server at all, and other common sense stuff that anarchy servers have no problem with is prohibited and will result in a ban on this server which is why it’s not considered a true anarchy server.

Another separation from most anarchy servers is there does exist a range of mods players can leverage often at expenses of either high cooldowns, in-game currency, and/or narrow limits.

First and foremost a vanilla-ish survival server:This server is above anything a survival server which tries to stick very closely to Vanilla gameplay. There do exist plugins you can use and other worlds you can freely visit but they are luxuries and very restricted. Many commands incur expenses and cooldowns to use and many are entirely disallowed.

Is only active every 3 months for 1 month:The server is limited, it pops up for 1 month every 3 months and then shuts back down. It pops up every November, February, May, and August. Everytime it’s shutdown the entire server and worlds are saved so your progress isn’t lost.

All Minecraft versions 1.7+ are supported:No matter what version of minecraft you’re using from 1.7 – 1.16 it should be supported. The server uses version 1.15 for reference.

Higher Difficulty:The server is meant to be very difficult and has many various increased difficulties across the board as a number of internals were tweaked.

Aggressive Optimizations:The server has a range of aggressive optimizations in place to try and prevent both lag and hacks or malicious users. Hundreds of internals were tweaked across the board and a range of limits were placed.
If you spot any errors or false positives please let me know via the /helpop command, this also holds true for if you want some restrictions dialed back a bit.

In-Game Help:You can access a simplified in-game help that shows a summarized and shorter version of this help by typing /help in-game.

Do you watch Hermitcraft or any other SMP style youtubers? Ever wanted to try out that gameplay? If so this server is here for you. So why us? The answer is pretty simple; there are a lot of SMP servers out there however, majority of those have land claim and pay2win. Not us, not here. We strive ourselves on the main aspects of Minecraft. The grind, the builds, the community and friendships. We have 0 land claim plugins, you are free to roam at will. No pay2win, we do not offer kits for people to purchase. This gives an unfair advantage on others. We like to keep things equal and fair.

In what ways are we “Semi-Vanilla”? Well we dont have mods and game changing addons, just simple ones to keep things flowing easily and keep players motivated. For example a chat name system based on progress. The more you play and complete the vanilla advancements the higher you are. However, someone at the top tier does not have any advantage over those who are new. Those who work are those who gain.

Sound interested? We release soon so join the discord and apply now. Have your say in how the server can run. We are a community. Everything is fair.

Hey everyone!

Vanilla Republic is a NEW server looking for a mature community of players to join! We are a semi-vanilla server with the only plugins being Grief Protection, Anticheat, and Better Sleep. the goal of Vanilla Republic is to capture the simplicity of the golden era of Minecraft survival, all while embracing the new updates and ways to play the game. Our map will NEVER reset. The idea of starting fresh is fair, but I believe knowing that your builds will stay within the server forever makes it all the more valuable to build a long-lasting world! We require a very simple and straightforward questionnaire which is located on our discord server (https://discord.gg/pk6W47Zg2k). From there; upon a successful application, you will immediately be whitelisted to the server. Help us build an empire!!!

I hope to see you soon!!! We are also interested in potential administrators down the line, so if you can prove yourself with enough time and dedication, you may even help the community!

Please make your way to the #application-for-whitelist and #rules tab in discord to begin your journey!!!

VSMP is a semi-vanilla, anti-grief community. Whether you are a pro-builder, or make dirt houses, it offers a chill space to break some blocks.

I prioritize keeping the game as vanilla as possible, while optimizing the community fun. I have added mcMMO, /sethome, and the ability to sit on slabs and stairs. Staff is active and here to support you. While we are anti-grief, we do not use any bulky land claim plugins. We do our best to prevent grief, but in the case it does happen, we can easily reverse it.

The world border is 500k (+/-) in all realms. The nether and the end will have 1 reset around the mid-point of the map lifetime. The map will reset around the time 1.17 is released (mid-late 2021). For those of you who work on major builds, there is the ability to download it for your own world when we reset. If we like your build, you may be chosen to help build the next spawn (if you would like).

Coming soon is an event server! Awesome community events including parkour, build-offs, and more. A great way to win in-game prizes such as mob heads, Netherite, and more!

It’s simple: You want to play Survival Minecraft. You want people who aren’t cheating to play with or maybe even against. You hate those typical factions plugins with claiming land and tpa commands. You want as close to vanilla experience as possible while also having zero rules in the game world itself?

Uneasy Alliance is your server. We’re not anarchy, rather more lawless than anything else.

You can do whatever you want in-game as long as you follow a few simple rules.

If you want the full range of survival gameplay in a settings where someone might just be waiting behind any nether portal to kill you, where you can build or say anything you possibly could ever want, where the only staff interaction is toban cheaters and make sure the server is running well, then this is your spot.

Join UneasyAlliance.com today, good luck.

Post date October 19, 2020

Hello! My name is SPOOSER or Spencerwon21. I have recently started a semi-vanilla server that is somewhat like the Hermitcraft server, not too far off from Vanilla but with a few tweaks, mainly to be more like the Hermitcraft server from Youtube. I’m looking for people who will be active and are willing to help build a strong community block by block!

There is a limit to how many people can join the server, so act fast!

There are a few rules:

Don’t grief or steal, obviously.

Don’t be rude or condescending, we really need less of that in the world. We are accepting of all kinds of people.

Don’t build on or near the Trading District (Mushroom Island) unless you have paid the requisite diamonds and stated your coordinates.

Don’t use other people’s farms without their stated permission.

Please let me or someone know if you plan to take a week or so off from the server, we’re trying to build an active community of people from all walks of life.

You must have and be willing to use Discord, voice chat, or not.

You must be 18+ to play on this server.

I hope to see you on the server! If you have any questions at all about the server please leave a comment and I’ll answer as soon as I can.

In order to be Whitelisted, please fill out this application and I’ll let you know if you can join! 🙂

Post date October 17, 2020

This is a Survival server trying to keep things as Vanilla as can be with a public server. Plugins are mostly to log player actions, prevent griefing, lag, cheats and hacks.

The Sprinkles are minor QoL changes
Spawners are silk-touchable
The nether is 256 blocks tall instead of 128
Villagers are able to be leashed and will follow you while holding emerald blocks
Only half the players need to sleep to skip the night
Lava is infinite like water, if abused will be removed
Phantoms will ignore players holding a torch
Horses are ridable in water allowing you to more easily cross rivers and small patches of water
And a few others play and find out…
