Philosophy
- This server tries to keep it simple and avoid all the bullshit that breaks the immersion of the game. It doesn't try to improve the concept of vanilla hardcore - because it is already complete.
- Sethomes are comfortable, but break the systems that minecraft provides by default. For instance, Lodestones. Same goes for vote rewards.
- The beauty of life is that everything has a beginning and an end. When you die, I will ban you with pride: Your experience on this server is complete and you can start a different adventure.
- A Minecraft-server does not need a huge player-base in order to be an exciting experience. In fact, playing with fewer concurrent players makes things more meaningful. 20 player-slots.

Maintenance and Intervention
- This is a liberal server, but cheating is not part of the design. If you enjoy cheating, you should check out servers where you can have a more meaningful experience. For instance, 2b2t!
- This server is a place for chill people only. If the community thinks that you are annoying, you are getting banned.
- You can use all known and unknown vanilla exploits. Experimenting with the game is exciting. However, if it is too heavy on the server CPU, I will obviously not allow it. 
- Alts are not allowed. Minecraft accounts are expensive, so you shouldn't spend money on tricking yourself.

Alright, that was my essay on this server! I just want to provide a place for people that share my enthusiasm for this very pure way of playing the game. Enjoy.
