Creative servers give you unlimited blocks and usually a protected plot of your own. The draw is building: big projects, WorldEdit, and a community that walks around to see what everyone else made.
Check how large the plots are, which build tools are allowed, how plots are protected and whether the server runs build contests or themed events. Plot servers are the most common kind of creative server, and the FAQ below explains how they work.
Right now 457 players are on the 6 creative servers that answer our pings, out of 9 listed. Over the last four weeks, the busiest hour was around 15:00 UTC. Measured at 23:19 UTC.

Before you join
How to choose creative servers
- 01
Check the plot size and whether you can merge or claim more plots as you grow.
- 02
Ask which tools are allowed. WorldEdit, VoxelSniper and head databases often come with a rank.
- 03
Make sure plots are protected, so only you and the people you trust can build on yours.
- 04
Look for build contests and showcases if you want an audience for your work.
Questions
Questions about creative servers
How do you get WorldEdit on a creative server?
Most creative servers give WorldEdit to trusted builders or a builder rank, sometimes after an application with screenshots. Some allow a limited version for everyone with a block limit per command.
What is a plot server?
A plot server divides the world into a grid of equal plots separated by roads. You claim a plot with a command, usually /plot auto, and only you and the players you add can build there.
Can you build with friends on a creative server?
Yes. Add your friends to your plot as trusted members and you can build together. Some servers also let you merge neighbouring plots for larger shared projects.
