Zedwork Zurvival (Zz for short) is a secure, vanilla-esque Minecraft Server with an emphasis on collaboration and community. The plugins allow for a grief-free and easily available core experience of Minecraft.

The server's philosophy

There's no grief. Not only do we prevent grief before it can happen with claim protection, but we will typically catch, and ban, those up to no good extremely fast.

We encourage community spirit, and don't take kindly on griefing, stealing or PVPing in an non-civil manner. PVP is allowed, but only if both parties consent to it. Surprise attacks on players who are building, or going about their business is not accepted practice here. The Guardians will step in if they see your behaviour as unsavoury.

Players always start in a resource rich environment alongside other players just starting out. No more walking hundreds of blocks out of spawn before you can build. No more searching for caves, only to discover they've already been stripped of all valuables. You're dropped right in with other players who want the same as you: to find a nice spot to build; and you're never far from trees and other natural resources to mine.

The gameplay

We are vanilla. This does not mean no plugins, completely unprotected. What we mean is there is a focus on the core Minecraft experience. There are no game-changing plugins; nothing to distract from simply playing Minecraft.

Most of the people on the server are far spread out into all directions of the wind! A lot start building their own base, houses or projects on their own. But the people are nice and often help each other with their projects, give or trade items and come together for community projects, like preparing the next spawn regions with farms and streets.Players will often just live friendly next to each other while chatting a bit.

It is fun to visit others and see their progress of their buildings, towns and more. Even after hundreds of hours on the server, one can still find ne interesting and awe inspiring buildings. Some Travel Guides will lead you to the greatest and still important regions.

The server features food community farms at spawn, has an EXP farm in the end (made by The1Shaw) and a lot of other public or private mob and EXP farms.

But the core experience is the vanilla Minecraft we all know, even while some plugins will make your life easier.
