Welcome to Gladden!

Gladden is a whitelisted survival server created in early February
of 2024. The server is run by individuals with many years of experience
with minecraft. This server, Gladden, strives to bring together the best
players can find in a close-knit community and discord for what we
believe makes an impressively high-quality server on all fronts.

Disclaimer:
TOP QUALITY DOES NOT NECESSARILY MEAN TOP BUILDERS etc. (We mean
friendliest, active, fun to play with, generally good people)

The world is very fresh and just launched on 10/2/24. We encourage everyone
to write a whitelist application in our discord server. Please write a
detailed application to allow use to understand you better as a person
and a player. Gladden Discord Server



Why join?
The world was created in February 2024 and is very new.
This allows all players who join to have plenty of room to explore and
create whatever they can imagine. We like to include all of our members
in activities such as building and mining contests or any future
community events. Should you decide to join Gladden here's some of the
stuff you'd experience;

• • Very friendly and outstanding players to befriend and get to know.
    
    
  • Loose rules; We want everyone to have fun playing minecraft and not be restricted by unnecessary rules.
    
    
  • The server runs on Paper which allows the server to run at high
    performance 24/7. The server is always being more optimised to achieve
    minimal lag.
    
    
    
  • A 16+ player base to allow for more maturity.
    
    
  • A long term world; We don't plan on starting a new world any time
    soon. The world border is currently set to 5k which allows for a more
    community based server. We do plan to expand the world border over time.
    
    
    
  • Dynmap; A web based view of the minecraft world.
    
    
  • In game voice chat.
    
    

We also have various plugins and datapacks to improve quality of
life. Some of them are 1 player sleep, anti grief for numerous mobs,
AFK, Discord to MC chat and fast leaf decay.

To join:

If you'd like to join you must go through a whitelisting process and fill out an
application. We are looking for the most engaging players we can find.
Please note we may not accept every application.

Unfortunately, if you are super young (under 16) this server isn't for you.

The server doesn't ask you to be amazing at Minecraft, but we do expect you
to want to be a part of a community and part of the discord: Willing to
play // Willing to participate // Willing to be a good person

Please don't feel pressured by "the standard". This is a great community, and
we just want to ensure people joining don't exploit the kindness and
generosity of our existing, and generous players.

GladdenMC is considered a safe space and welcomes all players regardless of gender
identity, race, religion, etc. No griefing, stealing, bullying,
insulting, discrimination of any kind, or prejudiced behavior is
tolerated. Toxic behavior is not welcome.
