LAWLESS MC

What this is

A Minecraft anarchy server. No claims. No homes. No teleports. No rollbacks. No protection of any kind. If you build something you care about, you have already made a mistake.

Java Edition. Premium accounts. ViaVersion accepts 1.10 through current — bring whatever client you want.

The rules

1. Don't catch a federal charge on our server. "Illegal" means illegal where the server runs, not where you sit. If the answer might bring a badge to our colo, don't do it here.
2. 18+ only. This server is not Epstein Island. If you turn up looking for someone underage, we will become Chris Hansen. We do not care what's legal where you are. Take a seat.
3. Hacking on the server is permitted. Cheat clients, autofarms, scripts, exploits — go ahead. We run an anti-cheat for stability and to keep the worst movement exploits manageable, not to enforce fairness. Fairness is your problem.
4. Hacking the server is also permitted — if you can. Exploits, intrusions, novel mischief directed at the infrastructure itself are fair game. We won't pursue you for it. We will close the hole the moment we notice and you'll lose your access. Treat this as a standing invitation, not a CFAA waiver anywhere else.
5. There is no moderation of conduct. Lying, scamming, betrayal, griefing, propaganda, alliance-breaking — gameplay, not violations. If someone wronged you, that's a story, not a ticket.
6. Protect yourself. Hide your base. Don't share coordinates. Don't trust new friends. Assume every chest is being watched and every player is lying. They probably are.
7. Please don't DDoS us. This is the one ask on the page. Bandwidth costs money and the people maintaining this have day jobs. If you want to attack the server, see rule 4 and bring something more interesting than a stresser subscription.

What's running

These are the only plugins on the server. Every one of them defends against exploits or handles compatibility — none change gameplay.

• GrimAC Anti-cheat. Stops movement exploits (fly, speed, instant-mine) and packet-level crashers. Does not flag autofarms, AFK scripts, or non-movement cheats.
• ViaVersion
  ViaBackwards Multi-version protocol support. Any Java client 1.10 through current can connect. Pure protocol translation, no gameplay change.
• AntiPopup Blocks the disconnect-popup packet exploit and related malformed packets used to crash clients.
• Spark Admin-only performance profiler. Invisible to players, no gameplay effect.

What's NOT running

If you've been burned by hostile servers, this is what we've deliberately chosen not to install:

• No claims, protection plots, or WorldGuard regions
• No /home, /tpa, /sethome, /warp, /back
• No CoreProtect or block-change logging
• No economy, ranks, jobs, shops
• No chat formatting, filters, or restrictions
• No moderation tooling beyond admin command access
• No rollbacks, ever, under any circumstance
