Have You Read and Do You Agree to the Server Rules: Yes I have and definitely agree. Won't have to worry about me
How Would You Describe Your Minecraft Play Style?: I guess you could say my playing style is more laid back. At times I'll love settling down, building some nice buildings and redstone contraptions to go along with it. At the same time, my favorite part of SMP servers is having a community and making a shop or doing community events/interaction. That's the kind of thing that keeps me coming back to minecraft, the people I'll meet. So at times I'll do my own thing, but always prioritize the server as a whole if an opportunity presents itself!
Why Do You Want to Join Our Server: I've been looking for a way to get back into a good community of people I can form close bonds with enjoying the game I've loved for years. This seems like the right place and with a good environment I will be extremely active and happy on the server! Can't wait to meet all of you and work on some cool projects at the same time!
Tell us About Yourself:
I've been playing Minecraft since late 2012 or when I was around 13 years old. I started out in survival mode, learned the game, and quickly found that I wanted to share my knowledge of the game, creativity, and overall easy going attitude with a community that I could have fun with and pass time. The first server I joined was a clan server where I learned more and more about the game, became an active and well-respected member within a short amount of time, and where I learned that pure vanilla SMP was the gamemode that would keep me coming back for more. As the server was not completely vanilla smp, I applied through a detail application process into an up and coming SMP called Redux SMP. It was at this time, april of 2013 where my knowledge of the game and my favorite memories and lessons of the game were learned. From 2013-2016 this community and I formed close relationships with each other that I still hold today. Within a few months of being apart of this community, I became an operator on the server and stood in a leadership role til the server died out in 2016. During this time, I began my own YouTube channel on the side, posting videos when I could, lets plays, group recordings; genuinely all because I enjoyed the time I spent with the guys on the server, and I wanted to share my laughs with the rest of the world. As this server grew closer after me joining, we went through several different map and leadership changes that ended up with me being an owner and head of the community as a whole. Under my leadership I expanded our outreach to new members, primarily looking for dedicated, mature, and detailed minecrafters interested in either just playing the game or recording along with the rest of the community. Eventually we created this into a small public community of mostly YouTubers who could go up against any player in the game and come out on top in terms of knowledge of the game, building, redstone, ambition, and much more. My own YouTube channel grew at the same time and peaked at 750 subscribers before stopping after life got demanding. Perhaps the things I enjoyed the most was spending time with the guys I still call my friends today whether it be UHCs, recording videos together, opening a shop together, or demonstrating economics in our shopping district. This went on for 3 or so years before interest faded in the game, life got busy for most of us, and the server decided to close in early 2016. After this I wasn't too much into the game anymore as I explored games like CSGO and faced a lot of things in life that summer. Now with time becoming more and more available in the summer, I've finally found some time to get on and embrace these experiences again. So that's why I'm here haha...Hope that helped put into perspective my experiences. I'm a super chill guy who enjoys hoping on discord servers and just talking for fun. I've been around minecraft for a while and I won't disappoint.
Anything Else?: This server looks awesome and the community is the most important thing so really looking forward to it!! Thank you!

IGN: JaceStratton Name: Jace Age(18+): I am 19. Birth Year: 1998 Location: United States Have You Read and Do You Agree to the Server Rules: Absolutely I do. How Would You Describe Your Minecraft Play Style?: I would describe it as building-intensive and experimental. By far my favorite thing to do in Minecraft is design massive structures and spend copious amounts of time putting them together. Specifically, I like to make towers and floating buildings/islands. On the experimental side, I like to create redstone contraptions for farming, automation, or anything that makes whatever I'm currently doing more efficient. I also like to test the limits of the game and see what it can do outside of the intentions of the developers. Namely, I think it's fun and interesting to break unbreakable blocks and obtain impossible items (I didn't see a rule against this type of stuff, but if it's frowned upon, I'll refrain). Why Do You Want to Join Our Server: I love vanilla, but I haven't been able to find many populated servers. Your server focuses on community, and it's loads more fun to play with an active bunch of players than play solo. Tell us About Yourself: Aside from playing Minecraft, I enjoy coding and sound design. I am studying computer science in college and learning about music theory and synthesizers through a program called FL Studio. Anything Else?: Let me in!

How Would You Describe Your Minecraft Play Style?: I like to make underground bases, I like working with other people on stuff, I die A LOT so I'm good to have around for entertainment. I am very generous in game, and an all around team player.
Why Do You Want to Join Our Server: I enjoy playing with others. the server I had been on has been slow for the past few months. My minecraft pal mondo recommended this server to me.
Tell us About Yourself: I go to college for/work in education, so I prefer to play on a grown up server(don't want to run into a student). I have a dog and live with my girlfriend.
Anything Else?: Let me in!..... please?

Have You Read and Do You Agree to the Server Rules: I have both read and agree with the server rules, they are tough but fair, but tough.
But fair.
How Would You Describe Your Minecraft Play Style?: I put a lot of emphasis on making my builds match the terrain. I like all the common redstone stuff i.e. 3x3 doors and what have you but I don't go searching deep into youtube to make watches.
Why Do You Want to Join Our Server: Mostly because of the 18+, it's actually an easy question for me. The hard part comes later when you asked me why I've never left.
Tell us About Yourself: I live on a hobby farm and do graphic design work on the side. It's kind of like 'Real World' Minecraft, we have chickens, rabbits, gardens, creepers, redstone, picture frames... the usual. I take care of my 1 year old daughter while my wife goes to work so I usually play nights weekends and randomly when my little girl naps.
Anything Else?: Let me in! See what I did there? Exactly what you asked.

IGN: cdconrad Name, or What You Want us to Call You: Conner Conrad, you can make fun of it as you please. Age(18+): 20 Birth Year: 1997 Location: I live right in the middle of the United States Have You Read and Do You Agree to the Server Rules: I have read them, and I do think I should be able to handle them all. We do all hate creeper holes How Would You Describe Your Minecraft Play Style?: I would say I am a very casual and social player. What I mean by this is that is I am not one who quickly sets up base and then goes mining for diamonds and tries to "beat" the game within the first few hours. Instead I like to be patient and think about what is coolest thing I can do. Why Do You Want to Join Our Server: I have been desperately trying to find a server to play on with a good community, recently I thought I had found one, but due to it being poorly run it went down. But I feel like this server would be a great fit for me! Tell us About Yourself: Like I stated before I am 20 and currently attending college, but I have been into minecraft for awhile now. I usually like to play with my sister (18) and my cousin (19), which I understand you probably would not just add us all right away but we work well together and like to think we make the server a more social and fun place. I will try to attach a recent build of a spawner we made together. We are always looking to help in any way and love to take on big projects. But yeah I would really enjoy the opportunity to hear and learn about you guys if given the chance! Anything Else?: let me in!
IGN: Flint_Ruc Name, or What You Want us to Call You: Just Flint is fine with me. Age(18+): I’m 20 years old. Birth Year: Born in 1996. Location: In the United States, the state of Georgia. Have You Read and Do You Agree to the Server Rules: Yes, I have read and agree with the rules.
How Would You Describe Your Minecraft Play Style?: Very Survival oriented, I don’t tend to build house that are very big (unless I have a surplus of resources), I tend to have to make farms for all crops that I need. I also enjoy brewing potions, could make a shop once I get enough supplies. Why Do You Want to Join Our Server: I’m a fan of vanilla Minecraft since I enjoy playing survival mode. So I like seeing servers sticking with vanilla instead of all the crazy mods and plugins (I never seem to get the hang of them). With these vanilla servers its a lot easier to get to know other players. Whenever I’m playing in a big server, it’s a struggle to even try to talk, so a smaller audience is more of my style. Tell us About Yourself: I’m a college student with a part-time job. So I play video games to keep myself busy when the other two aren’t. If im not playing Minecraft on the PC, I’m playing it on my Xbox. I play it along with my other games on the Xbox. I’ve been playing Minecraft since Alpha and I still enjoy playing it so many years later.

How Would You Describe Your Minecraft Play Style?: Generally when i play i am very focused on what i am building at the moment. I can easily go for hours when i get into a project and not know how long it's been. Building is the most enjoyable thing for me, i have never been into pvp in minecraft at all. I also like to help with group projects whenever someone is up to something. I never take any game seriously though, the most important thing is to just enjoy yourself.
Why Do You Want to Join Our Server: I am looking for a smaller private server, but with a decent number of active players to play with. I can not know how much i like the server until i play on it for a while, but i would certainly like to give it a try.
Tell us About Yourself:I never have much to say about myself, except to say that i dont really talk much, and that i dont like talking about myself.
