About the Minecraft server
Z Server is primarily a Minecraft survival multi-player server that is dedicated to bringing you the best experience possible while at the same time being a very amazing community of players. We use only the best hardware we can afford to keep our server awesome and use several different security measures to keep our services really secure. We have over 10 anti-grief plugins, and several firewalls on both the server and our sites to keep our up time up not down. Z Server SMP was founded May 14th 2011 as a simple home hosted Bukkit server that regularly over heated. Z Server SMP has grown now to be in a nice cozy water cooled data center.
Z Server SMP is not affiliated with Mojang AB, Microsoft, or Minecraft as a company.

z_neumann [Head-Staff] ~Z
I am the founder, creator, and still a big maintainer of Z Server SMP. On top of running Z Network Technologies and running and managing all the servers associated with it. I try to pop on the Minecraft server when I can. I usually am in charge of the coding for plugins, management, and security of the Minecraft server. I also do all the coding for the website, and all of the technical server stuff for the website. I also maintain all DNS and network setups for the website and Minecraft Server. I am usually here when needed not all the time though with work, and sometimes when I take a break from Minecraft for a day or two. Usually if you message me though I will get back to you quick (especially on Discord). I build pretty decent things, I am also very well skilled with redstone, and like to mess with people in a fun way.

I am currently the Owner of Z Server SMP. I’m not too good at coding, but when it comes to administrating, remembering commands, and getting important stuff done on the server. I’m usually pretty good.
Brother_Gray [Head-Staff] ~Hedgehog (Dr.Spud)
I am the current Co-Owner of Z Server SMP, responsible for most of the day-to-day management and maintaining the server itself. I am a highly responsible admin and a very fun one at that. I also maintain structures and make sure all is intact.

We have in the last few years designated our dedicated servers codenames based on animals. This started when we first started hosting with Plus Server group as they too gave their servers animal names in the hostnames. We since have taken that and applied it to each upgrade we had with them. Since our move to OVH we have just kept the name Lizuna as our configurations haven’t changed much in processor speed (only in RAM between 32 and 64 GB configs). Plus the Lizuna is just so cute.
The Lizuna, or least weasel, belongs to a sub-species that prefers the northern climates of Hokkaido, Siberia and northern Scandinavia. Unlike some other least weasels, this subspecies’ coat turns white to camouflage it in the winter.
