I would use the bot system, as they are known for infinite loops and lag spikes.

I would ask Akka to host the server. =P ..wait, nevermindit!

Players on Varlyndria: Ascension are reporting that looting is causing lag. What in the world would cause this, as I have never encountered this problem before?

There's a "feature" to log who looted what first, can't recall the name. Turn it off.

Loot Firsts in rules_values, it checks a table to see if the item has ever been discovered before, it is taxing because it queries every single time instead of performing lookups in memory
