First off, a small introduction (since I wouldn't expect to be accepted without sharing a bit about myself). My ign is Mistahtokyo. Irl, I live in Miami, Florida. I'm 18, currently attending college (Computer Animation major). I love Minecraft for two things, in this respective order: mining and building. With time, I can build large scale buildings and projects. I have a decent understanding of redstone, including logic gates and various minecart and redstone mechanisms. I like to build alone in an isolated area, but enjoy working on public structures (usually mob farms/functional structures) with others. I have Fraps, but I haven't uploaded anything on YouTube yet (if it's a requirement, I would consider doing so). I'll post my requirements in a list format for easier reading, so here goes:
- This first point is the most important. I might not mind seeing only a few of these criteria, but the one thing I cannot accept is a server where creative mode is used. At all. Not even by admins. We should all have an equal opportunity to create things. Admins are players too, they are not to be exempt from the task of gathering resources.
- Plugins should be minimal, preferably none. I dislike any mods that alter gameplay (McMMO and LWC (locking chests is a gameplay change, for those who may not think LWC fits there), but I understand that mods like LogBlock, BigBrother, WorldGuard, etc are sometimes necessary to prevent griefing (although griefing shouldn't be an issue on private servers).
- A medium sized community. I like playing on a server that has around 30-50 players as member, though not necessarily online at the same time. servers with 100 plus members feel too crowded for me. A smaller community allows for members to connect with one another and develop a friendly, calm, yet fun atmosphere.
- Varied player demographic. It would be nice to be in a server with people from varied origins. Having at least one female player would be nice, too, since female players are a welcome change and can provide different ideas/conversations than a male player would.
- Mature players. By this I mean psychologically matured, since there are younger players that I've know to be very mature. Mirroring the post above, age variety would also be welcomed.
- Pvp would be nice, but I would prefer that it weren't the main focus of the server. A verbal system where players accept to fight one another and/or fighting only in certain scenarios would be best.
- A way to communicate verbally with others. Something like Skype, Teamspeak, Vent, etc would be great since talking to other players not only allows me to communicate with them better, but hearing them allows me to understand them better as individuals, making conversations easier and more casual.
As always, the best way to illustrate my "dream server" would be to share an example. I know they have been mentioned a lot recently, but I do believe the MindCrack (not MineCrack...) and HermitCraft servers have gone about these things perfectly. Also, if you are a member/admin of a server like the one I am looking for, but need more information/require some sort of criteria from me, please let me know and I'll try my best to provide it for you.
Cheers,

hi,
i run an 18+ whitelisted semi-vanilla server. We do run mcmmo, however, so it's not quite what you were looking for. However, players who have wanted complete vanilla have told me my server is "good enough" and I encourage you to give it a try. please pm me if you would like a tour.
Hey buddy. Just wanted to say that I noticed you were looking for a server with 30-40 people on it. The "Looking For' section on here is mostly just viewed by people that are just starting out with their server and probably have much less people than that on. If you go to the "survival servers" section, you will probably have a much better time finding a server.
