The Anchor is a refreshed Semi-Vanilla experience looking for new players!
The Anchor strives to give a different experience from what you get from other servers, but still "anchor down" the Vanilla feeling so many crave in a traditional SMP. Below you can see some of our main features:
- Permanent Overworld
Everything done in the our main world stays as is to show what we hope is a very long and rich history. If Mojang releases a major update, or one where new biomes can be found; the border is expanded! To offer players the ability to gather large resources without destroying excessive land in the Overworld; we offer Resource Worlds which reset monthly. ( Server Map )
- Playtime Ranks
We want our players to feel that if they put time into the server they play, they are rewarded and treated with the respect deserved within the community. So in exchange for longer play times, users are entrusted with more rewarding permissions that allow them to do limitless things within The Anchor!
- Claims / CoreProtect
Everything you own should be protected and have it known that it's yours. With claims you can prevent players from destroying or even entering your property. Additionally, with CoreProtect anything unclaimed that you have trouble with or report can simply be rolled back to its former state if issues arise, given there's a just reason for it.
- DiscordSRV
Discord is a large part of keeping the community close and aware of all that goes on, because of that we have a direct connection from the Minecraft Server to the Discord Server! With an easy verification process, you can directly link yourself between them and keep up with all Announcements, Server Updates, and Future Events; as well as obtain roles that correlate with your in-game ranks! ;)
