BetaLands is a server founded in 2015, formerly owned by Swetz, and owned by 16.png JohnyMuffin.
Initially, RetroMC and BetaLands were seperate servers, but they merged in April 2018, and then split again in June due to differing opinions of Johny and Swetz.
This page references the server after it was accquired by RetroMC (in December 2019) unless specifically mentioned.

Differences from RetroMC

Some features available in RetroMC, such as container locks via LWC, Essentials/Fundamentals homes, and overviewer are also available in BetaLands.
And this is where the differences begin:

  • Server-based economy, sugarcane and catus farms were the best items to sell to the shop
  • Lockette is still enabled for locked containers created before the implementation of LWC
  • StarGates & MobArena don't exist
  • Towny is still used instead of JVillage
