It's been a long time since I've posted; so long I apparently can't access my original account. Oh well; that was probably a year ago - I deserve it. Anyway, with all that's going on, I remembered something... I stopped running a server about a year ago so I could get out more. Well.. creatures of habit and all... Search some of my old server images; same name, just no Underscore this time (thanks, Twitch!).
Here's the details:
NEW World:
With final release of 1.16, the Nether will likely be wiped. Nether portals will only be re-created with wipe where recorded at Spawn in Overworld. The Overworld, on the other hand, will remain, unless something drastic changes with future snapshots or the release itself.
Starting with 20w12+ snapshot world currently.
Just setting up in the Overworld until final Nether update
May access Nether prior to final release for building materials, and delete Nether files if needed,when official release hits - so won't be starting the hub network yet.
Building in/near spawn area is be limited to server rules to be explained in more detail later
SURVIVAL - VANILLA - HARD - LARGE-SCALE STATIC/TECHNICAL BUILD STYLE - NO MODS:
Typical Vanilla Survival play for the public, hosted by someone that leans toward producing more than they can consume. Obviously, per the below, there are some Command-level allowances (ALL within the Vanilla client, mind you) granted to enhance the server's environment in ways the server owner(s) desire.
Personally, I prefer Vanilla Play, but I do take minor 'server admin liberties' in the interest of the other players, such as assisting with (torch-only) lighting for security/safety purposes around spawn and some areas. Otherwise, I myself don't even use server controls beyond those activities; I do all my exploring, construction, farms builds, and anything physical in 'Survival' and NOT 'Creative'.
SMALL ENROLLMENT:
The server's beefy - but with the 16-chunk View distance, and potential scale of the builds, I'll be maintaining a cap on the Whitelist to 12-24 actual players
cam/family accounts are welcome, within limits.
COMMUNITY RESOURCE ECOSYSTEM:
No mods or anything fancy - just LARGE-scale community farms is my thing, and abundance is planned for the server!
Main bulk storage will be at (under) spawn - will take a significant time to get set up, of course
Non-Community resource Commerce Welcome!
-- If you want to maintain private farms of any scale, for sale while a community-output source isn't available (corner the market, and swim in diamonds!), you're more than welcome, but no hoarding resources produced by a farm designated for community output/general access. (Unless reserves are at reasonable capacity, of course).
Boosted Host Server Specs Plan:
Large-scale technical/redstone support; This includes tunnel bores (in approved pathways!!), etc. But all epic-scale excavation/redstone operations (world-eaters, etc) MUST be approved, and where appropriate, coordinated by the server admin (myself)
16-chunk view distance (if we stay under ~24 players, server technically supports 200)
- This DOES mean you'll need a computer and thruput capable of 16-chunk rendering
- Hey YouTubers! think of the nice cam-account shots you can get!
No World Border - Explore to your heart's content and enjoy the 16-chunk view distance scenery!
- Settlement locations will be approved and retained regularly Archiving by immediate region file(s) only if remote from spawn areas
Other items, just getting them down for reference:
Pre-planned MAIN Spawn central chunks area - bedrock to air. Again; it's a new server, but it's technically my base made public.. But there 'ARE' designated areas in spawn where server players will be able to set up shops, as mentioned above.
Ground level will have the central surface-level travel hub.
Sub-surface layers include, bottom-up, resource 'item entity' plumbing, redstone wiring/server control areas, Main Storage, Sorter/Utility access layer,
Command blocks enabled for the following planned features (done them before; some may need support to catch up to .16)
The usual single-person sleep trick
Drop dragon egg/head each dragon death
Endermen will have a percent chance (will balance based on current availability) to drop a Shulker Shell in addition to their normal Ender Pearl pool.
Intended for Adults and their family; Keep it audience-appropriate, and professional/ and/or family-friendly when needed.
NO Non-consensual PVP
So.. speaking of community goals; if you've read this far, thank you for your interest.
This server will be pretty lax in terms of planned community events and such; That all depends on who gets together with who, to work on which project. it's more of a private server hosted by someone that figures if they're going to be bored, why not play a game and be bored with others? I'm just poking around to see if there's anyone interested in joining. Can set up a Discord with server, etc. just getting things started tonight; wanted to get the app out there for the morning.
Teleport (TP) Station Policy
To balance having multiple player biome preferences for bases conflicting with available resources in a multiplayer world, I prefer to provide Teleport (TP) stations for remote points of interest and established bases more than 5k away from spawn, as well as resource-bountiful 'mining zone' biome stations to preserve such locations already discovered near spawn for aesthetic builds.
- The following conditions MUST be met for a TP station to be granted for ANY location:
MUST be at least 5k from spawn. Again - NOworld border!!, I encourage you to explore, but don't expect you to be completely isolated.... that's the real world right now, not here..... Go out, see the terrain, find that 'perfect' spot, map it, and make your way back to spawn with the grid, and we'll set you up with a TP station; You'll have easy access to community resources, and your friends can come visit!!
MUST be safely accessible by vanilla means (I.E., Nether pathway, ice-path, w/e)
*For personal bases; a 3x3 map grid at 3/4 min zoom, with center map containing TP destination, must be delivered to the TP station (once built, of course... ).
*For resource 'stripping' stations to(Ice Spikes, Jungles, Desert, etc.) for aesthetic biome-themed building.: a completed map of the complete area at 2/4 zoom, squared to include area in square/rectangular frame.
I'll add more Policies as time goes by - most of this is common sense stuff, or experience optimization while still maintaining as close to a 'vanlilla' single-player experience with respect to freedom of exploration, but with minor convenience features added based on year's prior experience running a server (TP, Shulker shells, One-Person sleep, etc.).....
Here's what you need to join....
If you're interested, keep in mind, I'm still setting things up, getting them secure and all; it's that new, and Vanilla. I don't have a crew or anything set up, and likely won't need on. but the server's live.

Will respond via PM with follow-up questions if your responses seem fitting "and" I feel we're ready to add more.
Anyone else interested? I'll be on most of the day and monitoring. The world's fresh, I'm saying! - Only been 'working' in it for about 6 hours now - haven't even gotten to finding a diamond.
You sound like you're in my boat. Welcome to our own little escape world; at least for the next couple months. Hopefully, this will become your new fav MC home. I'm a bit of an addict, and always regretting letting the server go before. Happy to be back, and looking forward to the 1.16 drop!
Sending you a PM with server info. I added you to whitelist, but may stop server here and there thru the day for naps - I mean tweaks - it's a new server, and all....yeah - tweaks
