Overuse of lava

[I_Love_Miners]

Some of you may know that a player named timtim made an underground railway system a few months ago that goes across a large portion of the map. This railway has a glass shield over the entire thing, which in many parts has lava poured on top of it to make it look cool. the problem is, when you have infinite buckets of lava everywhere, it can cause severe fps lag for reasons I'm not quite sure of. I created a petition about it, to possibly get the lava removed but because I accidentally spelled the word severe 'sever', kainzo thought I wrote 'server lag' and instantly closed the petition. Im currently running a pc with 8 gigs of ram and a 1024mb video card so I don't think my computer is a problem. I get 100+ fps on the regular, but when I went into this particular area of the map, my game crashed twice. If the staff can force certain town to turn off certain circuits because they cause lag, can't we force players to not overuse things like lava which are notorious for causing client side lag?

I went to this area and I had no added lag.... If it is constantly attempting to spread/flow - it may cause server-side lag.

I'm not a good test subject because the only way I'll lag is if I use a 512x512 textpack and even then its 30-40 fps.

Daaaaaang...... I use default texture pack.. As small as a minecraft screen that i want to play on, all setings at lowest they will go. And I only get 15 fps at newerth...

someone has a way too powerful computer, why don't you share the awesome with such people as my self, and arcanegrove above me, as we both have shitty computers?

Server admins probably get really picky about their client hardware after designing a server
