I have always been more of a find a server I like and then build with either people I know or by myself, but I have been that way because there's no way to just trust people with your stuff. Is there a server out there that I could find people to make like towns with or something. That or find a server with people to play with. I normally only play economy servers that allow locks on your stuff from people.
Try Bosscraft! Should be exactly what you're looking for. We currently have 2 towns being built by players and anyone can join. We have LWC so your chests and doors are locked (you can always unlock them as well), and we are also an economy server. We have more fun stuff as well, so go to our website to whitelist if you're interested in joining our friendly community! http://bosscraft.enjin.com/
We are a new server, about a month old, 1.7 map, that it still building our community, but we are growing slowly but surely. We have about 4-6 online during average times, less during off hours and more during peak times. The community is tightnit and mature because we don't tolerate disruptions or immaturity. We have a survival server with towns that allow players to make or join. Also, mcmmo and an economy plugin, but nothing that. Our website is: http://macrocosm.enjin.com/
You might like this server it has lot more things than just Towny. It has Skyblock, Minigames, and anew feature called Quests. There are currently many towns being. The server is nicely configured and it has a pretty good community. If you have trust issues with players trust me I know what you mean but if you try out our Team Speak and talk with the rest of the community you'll start feeling a bit comfortable here. So come try it out you might just find your Home Server!
Now you said you like building, I do have another server you could try its more of a building competition but still a lot of fun trying out the different themes and ways of building things.
If you're interested you can join our small community based role-play server called " Blacklight. "
All it takes is a quick application (Only takes a few minutes!) so that we can ensure that people willing to put effort into joining are rewarded with a safe and fun environment to be in. It's lots of fun and I personally love it! If you're interested check out our forum post!
Hope to see you soon!
