FireSide SMP presents itself as a friendly, community-oriented Vanilla+ survival server. The server focuses on cooperative play and a relaxed atmosphere where players build, explore, and socialize around shared projects.

🎮 Gameplay

Gameplay centers on classic survival: gather resources, build bases, explore, and work with other players. The "Vanilla+" label indicates the server aims to keep core Minecraft mechanics intact while adding a small number of convenience or moderation features to improve playability without changing the vanilla experience.

✨ Features

Primarily vanilla survival gameplay with building, exploration, and community interaction.
Described as "Vanilla+," which commonly means a few light quality-of-life additions (for example, minor convenience commands or moderation tools) while preserving vanilla mechanics.
Focus on a friendly, cooperative community rather than competitive or heavily gamified systems.
