This is pretty simple but, just in case you haven't thought of it try this:

/serverfilter on

You end up with a lot less traffic and can dedicate more bandwidth to combine requests and such ;)

As far as i know... everything you have turned off client side will be filtered out server side when serverfilter is turned on.

thx for info m8 - i just needed to be sure this was safe to have on! :wink:

Made the change - makes additional 60pp per hr with serverfilter enabled so well worth using! :wink:
