In its own words

Mostly PvE. PvE every day but Wednesday. Follow PvE rules every day that isn't Wednesday. On Wednesday, there are almost NO server rules... If you are caught being disrespectful in any way, you will be forgotten. Use Skill Tree and many QOL plugins to maximize your experience. 50% upkeep. Built it! 5 min crate hacks. /remove to remove things. Minis spawn on roads like they should. Long days and short nights. Custom maps. Enjoy
