Elevate Minecraft is a Vanilla+ SMP server made up of experienced players from across the globe. Our primary focus is to create a safe and fun environment where our members can relax, socialize, and meet new friends. In addition to the SMP server, we also offer members access to a whitelisted creative testing world where they can plan builds and technical redstone projects together. Our hope is that you will grow as a player and become embedded in the community, whether that be on the survival map through group projects or the creative map through drafting and planning.
We are excited to announce that Season 2 is underway and with that, we have just reset the map. We are now over 30 active members strong, each bringing their own unique personalities and talents to our community. With the release of Minecraft 1.16 (The Nether Update) on the horizon, we decided to make our way back onto the forums and open up for recruiting. Upon being accepted, you will immediately be added to the whitelist on both of our servers and receive a member position in the discord.
(Please note all screenshots are a showcase from Season 1)
Elevate is currently restricted to mature, experienced players only. We pride ourselves in having a very strong balance of talent and skill along with a thriving social scene.
We are currently a small and vibrant community with around 30 active players who are located in all different time zones. This means that no matter when you are online, it is likely you will be greeted by one of our friendly members or staff.
We have a zero tolerance policy with griefing, hacked clients, etc. and have several systems set up to track malicious activity.
We update to the latest game versions as they release (Nether will be reset upon release of 1.16).
We use discord (this is a must for all members). This discord includes further information on application requirements, server rules, current projects, community events and our ever-growing shopping district.
The server runs on Spigot and features only staff-related plugins for server management. We do have some general quality of life data packs as well; these are all from the popular Hermitcraft member Xisumavoid's Vanilla Tweaks.
All members are engaged in a full survival experience, with no additional permissions granted to Admin or Staff other than the ability to monitor and add / remove players if necessary.
We use Dynmap on the server in order to encourage player interaction and make it easier for members to collaborate on projects. Link in Discord.
Other General Features Include:
Render distance set at 16 chunks.
Difficulty is set to hard.
Fire spread is turned off.
Inventory is dropped upon death.
PvP is allowed if agreed upon.

Tell us about yourself: I am a mom of two almost grown kids and have been married 23 years. I work full time in marketing/advertising. I’ve played video games since the Atari, taking breaks from it throughout life but coming back steady to PC gaming about 10 years ago. I’ve been playing MC for about 9 years but I play a variety of survival games.
How active will you be?: Very. Usually nightly. I play games to relax and unwind from my busy day.
Have you been banned from a server before (and if so why)?: No.
What are you looking for in your Minecraft experience and what can we do to fulfill that?: I am looking for community, folks to get to know and laugh and create with. I like seeing projects others are working on and learn new techniques in a game I’ve been playing for ages. I really enjoy working with others on projects, offering input, grinding resources and being proud of what we can accomplish as a group.
What makes your application unique and what will you bring to the server (don't stress): I think my build style has a lot of variety. I don’t get bored playing the game since I enjoy building, adventuring and even the grind of resource gathering. I love a challenge and I’m social. I like to connect with people and help others connect.
Examples of previous builds are much appreciated and go a long way with our Staff: I will send some pics via discord shortly.

Peg, thanks so much for the application. Appreciate you submitting your builds as well. Will get you set up this evening.
Tell us about yourself: How active will you be?: I've played Minecraft since beta when I was only ten! I am a college student and I spend all of my free time playing video games or playing instruments! I play the guitar, flute, harp and a little bit of piano. I play on PC, Playstation, and Xbox, though most of my friends play Xbox. I've recently been playing a lot of Dead by Daylight, Overwatch, and Death Stranding on the PS4. With college ending for the summer, I have a bunch of free time. I usually play every day!
Have you been banned from a server before (and if so why)?: Nope! Never.
What are you looking for in your Minecraft experience and what can we do to fulfill that?: I'm mostly looking for some new friends and a good community. I've never really collaborated in any Minecraft builds before and I think it would be fun to try!
What makes your application unique and what will you bring to the server (don't stress)?: I love making big bases and builds. I don't have any pictures, but I'll explain some of my builds in the next question! My weakness is building complex farms and redstone, but that's why I'm hoping to team up with some people who like that kind of stuff!
Examples of previous builds are much appreciated and go a long way with our Staff: My most recent was on a server with my friends where I built a little above-ground village in a dark wood forest. When I was younger, I watched the Creatures on YouTube (SlyFoxHound, UberHaxorNova, etc.) play Minecraft and I was really inspired by their treehouse series, so I've built lots of giant-tree bases too! I also used to do a lot of pixel art (all survival) and medieval kingdoms. I love using the Conquest resource pack so I can make my medieval builds really stand out!

Tell us about yourself: normal high school student. i grew up playing with lego so i have always had an interest for building things. i discovered minecraft only a year ago so i guess i am still fresh to the game but i have always been obsessed. i spend most of my time designing builds in creative, then doing them in survival ; i saw in the post that you guys have two servers, that's awesome.
How active will you be?: with school i plan on playing about 2-3 hours a day on weekdays. on weekends i can play all day if i want.
Have you been banned from a server before (and if so why)?: no sir
What are you looking for in your Minecraft experience and what can we do to fulfill that?: the last and only server i have ever been on did not have much of a community aspect. many people went as far away from spawn as possible and did their own thing. never saw them again lol. after looking at the post, i feel like this server is the exact opposite of that, and i will be able to interact with many members. also, i have never made it too far in my own survival worlds (beating ender dragon, all that) and i think with the help of other members i can do it!
What makes your application unique and what will you bring to the server (don't stress)?: i hope to be involved in many community projects if possible and build a few shops.
