Pendulum's Rest
Pendulum's Rest (PR) is a server based on small communities playing in a realistic, (largely) cheat free, and friendly manner. As such there are no cheats or exploits used and minimal world editing. Materials are harvested by hand and buildings built by hand. The server features exploration, building, mining and adventuring.
The server has a completely hand made map using the plugin Terrain Control and features over 50 new biomes not found in vanilla Minecraft. Many of these biomes have custom trees and dungeons made by PR players! PR is built off of it's community and every player may help expand the map by making new things to populate it with. PR is focused as much on player created experiences as it is on random generation.
To improve adventuring PR has many mods that adjust recipes, add magic, adjust combat and many more changes. Learning all of these features is part of the experience but start up guides will be supplied and players are expected to read them. Ignorance is not an excuse! You can jump on the server and start playing immediately but building rights and other perms will have to be earned. Even without full rights adventuring will be fully open.
