You guys have got to check it out. I'm not a massive Minecraft modder and have only played minecraft with a few friends on small servers over the years so I this is a POV from someone not used to massive Minecraft server but since seeing all the phenomenal work Athene has done for charity I thought I would create this thread to create further awareness(Very sorry if there is already a thread on this).
The server is amazing fun, today the server had 600 people online. I was super addicted and there are some excellent rules in place to prevent griefing and it seems a lot of work has gone into it to make it playable. I love how you can have your own patch of land and slowly upgrade it and have it rated which then allows your plot to grow. You can invite friends, have permissions

You even have chances of winning Razer gear. If you're a Minecraft fan you have to try it it takes 2 seconds to connect using play.mcnext.net when setting up server and you will be in the game instantly and a message will sound to your neighbours who will come welcome you.
It has pvp, boss battles, rewards, prizes, events, constant balancing/patches and best of all it helps towards charity.
