Clear filtersNo rules, no claims, and nobody coming to help
Anarchy servers have no rules, no claims, no staff intervention and usually no bans. Griefing is allowed, cheating is generally allowed, and the only protection you have is not being found. 2b2t has run this way since 2010, and everything else in the category gets measured against it.
Play accordingly. Do not build near spawn, travel out along a highway for tens of thousands of blocks before you settle, never share coordinates, and assume any screenshot you post can be reversed into a location. Duping and lag machines are part of the culture here rather than an exception to it.
The practical barriers are the queue and the client. Popular anarchy servers have queues measured in hours, and most regulars run a movement mod for the long trips out. Older servers stay on old versions deliberately. Read the server wiki first; it usually explains the ruined map you are about to land in.
1.12.2 is still the default for modded, and here is why
Version 1.12 arrived in 2017 with concrete, glazed terracotta, parrots, the recipe book and advancements replacing the old achievement list. It is remembered for none of that. It is remembered because 1.13 followed it with the flattening, which removed numeric block IDs and rewrote how the game stores world data.
That break stranded an enormous amount of work. Forge mods written for 1.12.2 could not be ported cheaply, so the packs people had spent years assembling stayed where they were, and 1.12.2 became the most played modded version in the game's history. Large packs and their servers are still running on it today.
If you are joining a 1.12 server, expect Forge, expect a launcher profile pinned to 1.12.2, and expect an older feel: no netherite, no raids, no bees, and terrain that stops at Y=0. In exchange you get a mod ecosystem nothing since has quite matched for sheer size. The final patch landed in September 2017 and the version has not moved since, which is exactly why pack authors trust it — a modlist assembled today behaves the same as one assembled five years ago.
