This page is a short introduction to the server. For a full in-depth guide, we encourage you to go and use our Fandom Wiki where you will find more tutorials, guides and info.
Get to know Peaceful Vanilla Club in simple steps
To play, you need to get out of the spawn region.
Well, that’s very simple. If you don’t have an home point set (and you do that by sleeping in a bed) you will be spawned into the initial spawn island. From there, to leave spawn, just enter the magic portal, or, if you have a friend already in the game, type /rtp "name" to get (randomly) closer to them. You can’t leave the spawn island without getting randomly teleported; if you want to visit the spawn itself you will have to get randomly teleported and then travel back to coords x0 z0 by yourself. Also, while in the spawn island, If you have a preferred cardinal direction you can write /rtp north or /rtp south (west and east too) to get teleported randomly in that direction. You won’t be able to use /rtp after leaving the spawn room. You can also have a quick tour of some of the best places around the server, just write /tour. Random spawn points change every 10 minutes, but if you want to force a fresh new location just write /rtp random and you will be teleported without waiting.
Don’t get lost, orient yourself easily. No teleports allowed.
We have an online map that looks like Google Maps. And Google Earth too! Look at the menu of this website and tap “Maps”. You can choose between a fully explorable 3D model of the world, and a top down 2D map. Use the maps to find your way. After having acquired some Emeralds mining, trading or voting you can try heading back to the spawn: you got teleported away from it on step zero of this guide. In the spawn region you will find a lot useful stuff made by the admins and players. The spawn is a big region owned by the admins where you can’t break or place blocks (only in some rentable plots of land) but you can still interact with a lot of stuff such as player-owned shops or admin-owned shops.
Claim your land. Do it!
Private property is a real thing. Mark. Your. Land. As soon as you can! It’s not optional, it’s like paying taxes in-real-life, and you do not want to skip it. Do you?! Don’t leave your builds unclaimed, they can get griefed, and you don’t want that. Griefing is prohibited, but that doesn’t mean you don’t have to claim your builds. To claim a piece of land (an area), place down a claim block. You get one for free after a while. You can buy more claim blocks at the spawn. Claim blocks look like ores, but have special names. Once you are ready you can also read a guide about claiming here and if you are really into it, you can go more in-depth too.
Read the rulebook. Or get banned.
Yeah. You will probably get banned if you don’t read it. You can find the official server rulebook here and you have to read it carefully. There are many interesting rules that you need to know. Should this be step zero? Yeah probably but no one read the rules at step zero. So… let’s make this step three. When I wrote “or get banned.” I meant that for real. We ban a lot of people because they don’t follow the rules, and rules are what helps us make Peaceful Vanilla Club the best Minecraft server. Man, I am serious. Read it. We have banned players of all kinds, even major players, even donors. We have no regards. Stats says that you have a very high chance of getting banned if you don’t read the rules.
Economic system, physical and virtual currencies, renting.
The server has a fully working economic system. We strive to keep it balanced and healthy, but it’s up to players to run it. You can open your shop and start selling or buying items. You can rent an area in the spawn region to open your shop there if you like, but you can open it wherever you want, really. Want to learn how to open a shop? Read this guide. The main server currency are ores, but we have also a virtual currency that you can trade at the bank. Read more about the economic system here.
Time spent on the server matters, as your rank does!
Your playtime matters. Check it writing /playtime. You will acquire new ranks based on your playtime. Better ranks have less restrictions in social interactions and in economy-related stuff. Want to know more about ranks? Check this page out! Also, we do not discourage staying away-from-keyboard (AFK) while on the server, you can even get some kind of lazy rewards if you do so. We do this to keep the player count balanced over the span of 24 hours, since we are an international EU+US server. You can enjoy some rewards even if you are a passive-style player!
But wait… Is this server vanilla?
Peaceful Vanilla Club isn’t exactly “vanilla” – isn’t that weird? The main world, “Mondo”, is semi-vanilla. We add features, fix bugs, and reduce lag to enhance the game while keeping the original Minecraft feel. Fast travel commands like /tpa, /spawn, /warp, or /home? Never. Those ruin the game’s essence. For pure vanilla fans, we have Terra2, a secondary world you can join once trusted. Terra2 is 100% vanilla, always updated to the latest Mojang release. Mondo updates more slowly due to its many custom features and plugins.
At least… is it peaceful?
Sure, it’s called Peaceful Vanilla Club, but it’s not 100% vanilla, and it’s not in peaceful mode either. The server runs on normal or hard mode. It’s called “peaceful” because of its friendly, non-toxic community. There’s no PvP, raids, or griefing in the main world. Gameplay is designed to be fun and smooth, with improvements that make progression easier. For example, new players get keep inventory for their first minutes. Want some action? PvP arenas are available for players who want to battle it out. Check out the spawn arena or build your own and get it admin-approved to enable PvP!
★ Read the Wiki (better than a FAQ section)
I know, your attention span is almost over (actually, we lost you at step 1) and now I am telling you to read an entire Wiki. Well, you can’t be considered pro on Peaceful Vanilla Club if you don’t give the Wiki a try. Have a read, and when you are inspired maybe also write a new article. Reading the wiki will answer a lot of FAQs and writing articles on subjects you know more than the others helps the community. The FAQ section on this website has been removed because it used to get outdated really quickly, so you can find updated answers to all your questions on the Wiki from now on.
