Are you tired of hubs and minigames? Do you not want to see ranks after everyone's usernames? Do you want to play minecraft the way it used to be?
I'm starting an SMP server, in the style of hermitcraft and mindcrack. Hopefully you know what I'm talking about, but if not here is the idea: Around spawn a community town full of shops and community farms is built. Everyone makes their own base (sometimes there are teams) and collaborate with each other.

The rules are simple. Stay active(ish), no bullying or harassment, be a good sport, pranks are allowed and encouraged, but should be good natured and creative.

This server is for mature people. I don't care about age, however. It doesn't matter how old you are, you can join. Swearing is allowed but keep it reasonable, and keep all discussions PG-13ish. I'm looking for people who can play often, but you don't have to be crazy dedicated.

If this sounds cool to you, then PM me. Tell me why you want to join, and rank your redstone, building, and any other skills from 1-10. As well, I would like to know your timezone, average time available a week, and ~3 fun facts about yourself. It wouldn't be fair to ask these without answering them myself, so here we go:

I want to have the experience of playing on a real SMP
redstone 3
building 8
PvP/PvE -4
Occasionally spamming chat with song lyrics 11
I'm east coast US time
I'm a student, so most weekends, and about 5-10 weekdays, and occasionally mornings. I do sometimes go inactive for a while, so don't worry if you don't see me for a few days
- I love music, especially early 2000s alt rock and 2000s rap. My favourite albums are To Pimp A Butterfly, Suck It And See, and Kanye's first 5
-I'm a drummer first, but also a general percussionist. I'm bass drum in a marching band, and I play some glockenspiel/marimba. I'm much better at writing music than playing it, though.
-I have played over 3000 hours of Europa Universalis 4 (yes, 3000)
