Minecraft Lovers MOTD
MineCraftLovers was founded in 2013 and is one of the few “semi-vanilla” survival servers that is here to stay! Build on your own or join on
MineCraftLovers was founded in 2013 and is one of the few “semi-vanilla” survival servers that is here to stay! Build on your own or join one of our community projects, build contests or monthly events to always keep the game fresh! Huge rail networks, massive months-long build projects, dirt huts, mob farms, massive sorting systems – if you can dream it, we want to see you build it!
Semi-Vanilla means that we try to keep the gameplay as close to a normal “vanilla” game experience as possible, but we do have a few plugins to add a little extra punch and keep things interesting. Don’t worry – if you are not used to playing with plugins, you probably won’t notice the difference! Our key plugins include:
• Dynmap - a live “Google Earth”- like map of our server world, where you can see builds and players in real-time. See our server map here: http://78.46.76.19:8123/ - • McMMO – an “rpg-style” plugin that lets players level up their skills. Spend a lot of time farming? You will level up your farming skills and occasionally auto-replant crops. Spend a lot of time mining? Eventually you will start to get double drops from ores. Playing with friends? Your skills level up together! Learn more about McMMO here: https://mcmmo.org - • Essentials – gives players the ability to set “homes” they can return to at any time, and teleport instantly to other players to share in on their projects or adventures. - • Geyser – This is an experimental plugin our server leverages that allows both Java and Bedrock players join and play together. This means you can join regardless of which version of Minecraft you play with!
We have a few extra server management plugins as well to help our admin and moderation staff keep things neat and tidy.

Minelist does not store a dedicated “PvP on/off” switch for Minecraft Lovers. For a Survival listing, fighting is often limited to arenas or claim wars.
Check the description and Discord rules for where PvP is allowed so you do not lose gear by accident.
Our last successful ping for Minecraft Lovers reported version Paper 26.2. That string comes from the live server, so it is the most reliable clue when Multiplayer says “outdated client” or “outdated server”.
The owner also listed these supported clients: 1-21. Multi-version networks (ViaVersion / protocol support) can accept a range such as 1.20–1.21 even when the ping string shows one build.
