# 🌎Astros Reach, a community-driven SMP!
Hello, everyone! Astros Reach is looking for new community members 🙂 We are long-term, community-oriented SMP where every player matters!
🌄 A casual, friendly environment.
**Are you looking for a place to call home? Want a world that will last until every last player is done with it?** Well, search no further! Astros is an SMP ran by experienced staff members and focuses on building a community within the game. On top of that, we plan to focus on building beautiful cities and community areas that will keep everybody working together for time to come. We want you to make awesome builds and even better friendships with us!
**We started on June 11th, so the world is a little under 4 months old** with plenty left to explore, plenty of community builds to be had, and events to come! Our spawn area is a near-fully moss-covered mushroom island, where we will spend the next several months working toward community builds and projects!
Our players vary in play styles and progress within the game. Everybody plays at their own pace! We are always looking for experienced and casual players alike! As long as you stay in contact and are interested in the server, we have no crazy play time requirements!
We have a no tolerance policy for rude or offensive behavior and understand that players come to our server to relax or have a good time after a hard day. We are a casual community at the end of the day and while our staff are active, we have busy lives too. There will be no pressure here! 🙂
🖱 Version and Mods
Astros runs on Fabric 1.20, running only server-side mods that you don’t need to download yourself to improve server performance (Lithium, Starlight) and add some fun chat cosmetics (StyledChat and Tablist). We also have a few datapacks to prevent mob grief (while retaining MobGrieifing: true) and make the multiplayer experience a bit better, while keeping the mechanics as close to vanilla as possible.
