Can anyone recommend a good Namalsk server?

[WarNerve]

I've only played on Namalsk a couple of times when I was still learning the game. I am looking for a good Namalsk server for my friend and I. I liked the DayOne servers as they seem to give more of a pure experience, but they are always full with long queue times.

If anyone can recommend a Namalsk server that is, basically, a vanilla experience, I'd appreciate it.

Also, if anyone knows a server similar to the KarmaKrew or EndZone servers but with a Group Name Tag, that would be awesome.
I used to always play solo, but now that I play with a friend we always seem to lose one another. I'm sure to many of you it's a, "Learn to play", or "Git gud", issue, but I like the group name tag. I'm blind in one eye, and I like the bit of a crutch that the group tag gives me. It's simply a QoL thing for me. Anyhow, thank you all for any help, I really do appreciate it.

I just play the 4/3 server, which is an unofficial DayOne and more or less vanilla Namalsk with some base mods. Used to play the official DayOne servers but I consistently ran into extremely suspicious circumstances with what I could only assume were hackers. The admins never responded to my reports, either. Interestingly enough, they choose to use their time and powers as admin to target people who using bad words (not even joking). Unsurprisingly, a little research reveals that the DayOne servers are a favorite and targeted by hackers (they talk about them all the time on their forums). Yet haven't run into a single hacker on the unofficial server. Much shorter queue times too.

What sort of, "suspicious circumstances"?

I have an ambush playstyle and I'll sit in one enclosed spot (which isn't commonly frequented by players) silently for long periods of time. I usually log in/out at those spots so I know I'm not being followed. There were a couple of times I was approached by players and they would attempt to talk to me or otherwise startle me when there's no way they can possibly know.

Also, if you google certain keywords pertaining to cheating, you'll quickly find discussions focused around the DayOne servers, and they're the only servers I've read about that are often talked about in those circles

I don't know about any of the things you mentioned, I'd have to do some Googling, myself. But unless there is rampant cheating going on I don't just let a couple mentions of cheating get to me. Every server gets cheaters. And on a good server they usually get banned pretty quickly.

As for what you said about people trying to talk to you when they couldn't have known you were there, it's entirely possible that they tried talking to you because they know it's a good spot for someone to sit and attempted to talk to you just to see if anyone answered. I don't know what you mean by, "startled" you, though.

I suggest MiddleGroundZ Namalsk. Thats new Vanilla+ server. There are quite a lot of mods on it, but they just make gameplay little bit better and does not steal anything from Vanilla feel. There are no super moddod guns, base raiding are balanced ect.
