Pay to Protect servers are all about keeping your stuff safe, but with a twist. You usually gotta shell out some in-game currency or maybe even real cash to secure your base or items. It’s like insurance for your Minecraft life. These servers often attract players who love building epic bases without worrying about griefers, but don’t mind spending a bit to keep it all locked down. Perfect if you’re tired of rebuilding your stuff every time you log in!
