Prison AFK, Autoclickers and Where the Line Is

Every prison server draws this line somewhere, and almost none of them draw it in the same place. AFK mining, autoclickers and macros range from expected to bannable.

Read the rules before you build a setup around them, because the appeal process for a mistaken ban is nobody's idea of fun.

10 servers on our list

1. #1 TalonMC Our #1

   Custom-coded rather than a stock prison plugin: you rank up through mines with <code>/mine goto</code>, mine Tokens, and spend them on OP enchants including Jackhammer for.

   OP Prison · Minecraft 1.8 - 26.2 · Bedrock: Yes · 1,406 online (network-wide)

2. #2 JartexNetwork

   Jartex documents its prison mode on its own wiki rather than leaving you to guess: public mines, a personal cell to build in, gangs with missions and an outpost to capture.

   OP Prison · Minecraft 1.8 - 26.2 · Bedrock: Yes · 705 online (network-wide)

3. #3 Minecraft Central

   Minecraft Central is a long-running multi-gamemode network whose own server message was advertising a fresh prison reset when we last pinged it, which means the mode is.

   Classic Prison · Minecraft 1.8 - 26.2 · Bedrock: Yes · 1,051 online (network-wide)

4. #4 Complex Gaming

   One of the longest-running modded networks in Minecraft, with prison as one lane of a very wide lineup.

   Prison · Minecraft 1.7.2 - 26.2 · Bedrock: Yes · 990 online (network-wide)

5. #5 ManaCube

   ManaCube lists prison directly in its own server message, next to survival, parkour, earth, PvP, skyblock and creative, so the mode is one lane of a genuinely broad network.

   play.manacube.com Copy IP

   Classic Prison · Minecraft 1.8 - 26.2 · Bedrock: Yes · 1,069 online (network-wide)

6. #6 ExtremeCraft

   A long-established network that runs prison alongside survival and a custom item economy, and the highest-placed entry here in TopG's prison category.

   Prison · Minecraft 1.7.2 - 26.2 · Bedrock: No · 390 online (network-wide)

7. #7 OPBlocks

   OPBlocks names prison in its own server message and had just launched prison season 34 when we pinged it, so seasonal resets are the rhythm here rather than one permanent.

   OP Prison · Minecraft 1.8 - 26.2 · Bedrock: Yes · 486 online (network-wide)

8. #8 Purple Prison

   Purple Prison is a prison-only server rather than a network lane, which is why its player count is entirely prison players and not a network total.

   Classic Prison · Minecraft 1.7 - 1.21 · Bedrock: Yes · 390 online

9. #9 CosmicPrisons

   CosmicPrisons is the other prison-only entry here, and its server message was advertising Version 6.0 Celestial with major changes when we pinged it.

   play.cosmicprisons.com Copy IP

   OP Prison · Minecraft 1.21.11 · Bedrock: No · 276 online

10. #10 SaiCoPvP

    SaiCoPvP runs its gamemodes as separate realms and had just reset all of them when we pinged it, so every mode including prison was starting fresh.

    Prison · Minecraft 1.8 - 1.21.11 · Bedrock: No · 121 online (network-wide)
