Project Nebula
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Hey! Thanks for clicking on our server ad! Project Nebula is a Hermitcraft-style SMP started by Colinator007 and RavingPlatypi and currently run by RavingPlatypi and Cowmilk. We love relaxing and playing as a community. From day one, our mission has been to grow a community of friendly people that are compassionate, considerate and fun. The members of Project Nebula have come together to form more than just a Minecraft server. Our community is tight, welcoming, and full of personable, diverse, interesting people! Hope you give us a shot!
You can find the Discord link and application information under the
Applications section; but I'd recommend reading through the entire ad first!━━━━━━━━━━━

▶ About Us & Values
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Colin and RavingPlatypi are recently graduated college students looking to play with new people! We're both engineering students and love to fiddle with redstone and farms; but we also love building beautiful structures and planning a nice base, and just generally hanging out and relaxing with some games. We encourage all playstyles and love to see the creative ways you guys play this game! We have experience hosting multiple servers in the past, such as Colincraft and Nebula Network, and have joined/played on many servers, too. Our server has been carefully maintained for over 4 years now!
Our goal is to not only create an active Minecraft server, but an active community and group of friends as well. While our community has a solid base, we are always looking to expand our group and we'd love to get to know you! We've found that many of our players tend to be college students majoring in engineering, but of course, anyone is welcome and will feel at-home with us!
Here are some values Nebula has consistently followed since our inception:
- Diverse & welcoming
- Nebula is fully committed to creating a space where all players feel welcome and included. All people are welcome to join us and all playstyles are welcome; encouraged, even! Like building giant, technical farms? Like building up a community village? Want to build an empire and take over the marketplace? Want to just make friends? Well Nebula is the place for all those things, and more!
- Community-driven & transparent
- Project Nebula runs off community feedback. Our Discord has a robust recommendation system where players can suggest features, discuss them, and have them officially polled by our community! Additionally, all changes made are fully transparent and the reasoning is laid out to the community. We don't just tell you what changes we make; we tell you why we make them.
- Mutual trust & respect
- All members of Nebula are respectful and down to earth. We can guarantee sour interactions or drama is few and far between. This includes staff members! Our staff team is trained to help out players and enforce rules when needed, but you will find that they are all regular, active players who are receptive and transparent!
- Commitment to the Vanilla experience
- Nebula was created, first-and-foremost, to provide a fun Vanilla experience with a like-minded community. While we have quality-of-life datapacks (like convenient crafting recipes), we will never fundamentally change Vanilla gameplay with plugins like MCMMO, enhanced combat, or anything of the sort. This also means you can count on Nebula to update to the latest versions of Minecraft as soon as it is stable.

▶ What's new on Project Nebula?
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
- The Cobblestonewall Inn has been completed! Located in our Pride Park, the Cobblestonewall Inn has been completed just in time for Pride Month! Here you can find free map arts from LGBTQ+ map artists all around Nebula!
- We've revamped our staffing structure! Per some recent feedback, we've broken up our staff team into smaller subteams, such as those handling maintenance, our marketplace, spawn, events, and media! This will be a huge change to the way we handle new changes on Nebula! We're excited to see how our revamped staff team handles Nebula in the near future!
- HourLife is making a comeback! HourLife is a roleplaying survival game created by GooseTen where players will build up the history of the world in individual lives that last, at most, one hour long. Each life will be entirely independent, and should be played as such. With lots of custom mechanics powered by our own collection of plugins, mods, and world gen, there is a ton to discover and explore! We're doing another beta test of this custom game in about a month! Hope you're interested in joining us!

▶ Applications
━━━━━━━━━━━━
Project Nebula employs a thorough whitelist process because we cultivate our community right out the gate. We've been successful in curating a community that is friendly, interesting, and overall a joy to be a part of (if I may say so myself!). Our age limit is 18 years old (no exceptions). Our whitelist process is as follows:
- Agree to our rules before being able to submit an application.
- This ensures the vast majority of our players understand our rules before joining our community.
- Submit an application in our #applications channel with message history turned off to encourage unique responses.
- We are looking for a standard of quality in our applications that illustrate passion for Minecraft and our community. Our application is designed for us to get to know you, so keep that in mind when you write it out. We aren't looking for an essay, but a couple sentences is what we expect!
- If you don't meet our standards, don't worry! We give all applicants a chance to edit their applications to meet these standards.
- A background check ran on applicants to ensure there is no history of bans or punishments on other servers.
- This background check is very effective at weeding out potential rule breakers before they can join the server, thereby vastly improving the player experience!

▶ Rules
━━━━━━━
The complete list of rules can be found on our Discord. This is an abbreviated version of the official Project Nebula rules:
- Don't be a **** (aka: the Golden Rule ™)
- Respect and maturity are key! We do not tolerate vulgar, rude, edgy, or generally inappropriate content.
- No griefing or stealing.
- PvP is allowed only with consent from BOTH PARTIES.
- No hacked clients or client-side mods that provide an unfair advantage. Client-side mods like inventory tweaks, mini-maps, and litematic are perfectly acceptable.
- No slurs, racism or offensive statements, period. We have a 0 tolerance policy for hate speech.
- Politics are strictly disallowed. Minecraft is not a good platform to have such discussions and moderating political talk is very difficult on our staff team.
- Discord is required.
- Just be nice and friendly, we're all here to have a good time!
A full list of rules can be found on our Discord.
