A more fair way to get credits + increase the max plugin limit
would be 5 stars if u could get more than 12 plugins. make it at least 15 so i dont have spend over 3 weeks getting credits for a daily plan. im not sure if u can do this or not but pls allow ppl to vote for u.it would allow u to get more credits a day but with the risk that no one els will vote. thats fair then. right?

How do I join the server?
Ok, I read the reviews but they all weren't great... but I think it is pretty good, though I haven't gone on yet. I just have one question. Where can you find the IP Adress? If someone can find this and replay that would be great. Thanks! Have a Great Day!!!

Hey there! I'm sorry to hear that you've had some trouble with your server. There are a couple different ways to join your server, you can either use your IP address or type /join servername from our lobby. You can always feel free to reach out to our support team if you have any issues as well and we can help troubleshoot.

TIMED OUT ISSUE
Please, fix your server time out problems. I was writing a book on my Minecraft server, making an entire diary (story-driven for my friends). The server then timed out, and I lost 10 PAGES of writing!!! This is unacceptable. almost an hour of progress and typing was lost. This has been so frustrating. I'm at the point of considering to leave Minehut and look elsewhere...

Good for Small Servers
Minehut is pretty good and is definitely one of the best free server hosting services. You can start up the server any time, even if you don't have access to the panel, and it has a wide range of plugins. However, you cannot select the version of Minecraft you want your server to be on, and Bukkit/Forge is the only type of server allowed. It has many useful tutorials on its Youtube channel and a large, helpful community, but I wouldn't recommend it if you are starting a big server. Also, without paying, you can only obtain 10 player slots, while other hosting services, such as Aternos, have unlimited player slots for free. Unlike Aternos, there is no queue while starting up your server.
I recommend Minehut for small servers, making Minecraft videos, private servers with friends, small PVP/minigames servers and small events. It is also great if you want to program your own server in Skript, as it has almost every Skript plugin with the latest version.
I don't recommend Minehut for servers that you want to customize using your own plugins, large servers, minigames servers, and large events, as well as servers that need a lot of memory/RAM.

The biggest thing in my life.
This is the BEST community based around minecraft POSSIBLY existing. It's mainly not toxic, a bunch of AMAZING people and staff ready to help. Sure there may be mistakes made, but mainly, it's a good community without fail. Sure, the servers are laggy and some of the player-base is toxic, but don't let that decieve you, it's one of the best hosting platforms. and a big plus: IT'S FREE!
