Python523 is on a distinguished road
You'll also run into the problem that not all the servers are located in the same datacenter, so there will be lag time between transfering stuff between servers, maybe not a huge ammount but maybe a tad noticable, plus you will have *****s doing like
NPC Code:

if (created){
timeout = 1;
}

if (timeout){
with(getserver(delteria)){
with(offlineplayer(whatever)){
for(i=0; i<100; i++) addstring transfer.string,#v(i);
}
}
timeout = 1;
}



to cause lag time on the servers because it will take up resources to transfer the strings from gserver to gserver, the idea is kind of nice but I don't think adding it would be worth it
