SMP means Survival Multiplayer
An SMP is a Minecraft server that plays like normal survival, but with other people in the same world. You gather resources, build a base and keep going over days and weeks, and what you build is still there when you log back in.
How an SMP is different from other servers
- Not a minigame server. Minigame networks run short rounds you join and leave. An SMP is one long-running world.
- Every SMP sets its own rules. Some are hardcore and let players fight or steal. Others are cozy and protect your builds. Always read the rules first.
- Extras vary. Many SMPs add land claims, jobs, shops, custom items or events on top of survival.
What a cozy SMP looks like
Crave SMP is a cozy one. You claim land to protect your builds, earn money from jobs and from time online, trade with other players and chase custom fish, pets and cosmetics at your own pace. Griefing and stealing are against the rules, the world never resets, and there are no login streaks.
