Quiet Creative Minecraft Server?

Hi! I wanted to host a game on my minecraft server but it was way to laggy. I thought I could maybe host it on a public server that was very inactive. Does anyone know of any minecraft servers that are almost abandoned but still work?

I know of one. It's a rather large server, but it's quiet and peaceful. It's more than meets the eye.

Not all servers are good servers to begin with. Many servers are out there with low-quality bandwidth, and will lag equally as much as your own. On top of that, there are various servers that are hazardous to join, because they infect your computer immediately upon arrival.

The servers that are extremely popular tend to be overcrowded and require a large fee for better content. When you purchase the content from these servers, it's dismaying at how little it's worth overall.

I personally didn't enjoy multiplayer minecraft for that reason. I never enjoyed cleaning out my computer, either.

However, upon the encouragement from one of my friends, I decided to give one last server a chance.

And that is the ONE server that I would recommend to you.

MinecraftSMP.

When I joined, I was stunned. I hadn't seen a survival/economy server like this one. Immediately when I spawned, I was able to-

Oops. Now that would be spoiling the content, now wouldn't it?

Here are the IPs:

Minecraftsmp.org:25599 - Main Server.
Minecraftsmp.org:25511 - PVP
Play.Pixelbuilt.org - Pixelmon
