Mushroom spread. One day per week.

We all know that Mushroom spread was turned off because there were reports of it causing lag. Well..we have no real source of food right now other than bread. Sure there is pork-chops, but that is not enough for PvP. Soon all of the mushrooms will be gone. I have been told before that it was also to make healers more of a neccessity, well.. I don't think many of us here want to roll around with a personal healer whenever we want to PvP. It just isn't practical. Maybe if you guys turned on spread one or maybe even two days per week, so that we could have a supply of them, it would be better.

I'm kind of new here, but the idea that Mushroom Spread turned off just seems odd, I mean, I understand completely what you're saying, Bread & Porkchops are not a viable source of food, I'm a Healer myself, and I like healing others, but some towns/cities just don't have those Healers that will roll around with you when you need them. I think having it on for 1 day a week would be a perfect idea.

It was turned off due to lag. It's very reasonable when people had shroom farms that made hundreds of shrooms in a day. One day a week does seem fair though!

or maby turn it on when player/lag is low enough.
or a certain time the day.

I think a combination of once a week and at the most appropriate time (When the server is relatively empty).

Intermittent shroom spread seems like a good idea to me. Also, depending on how this new test goes, it may be reasonable to leave it on continually. It was sooo faaast with only 80 people on there.

one day a week seems fair, without mushrooms it is pretty hard to heal up with out a huge supply of wheat to make bread everyday.
