That's mine.

I have everything in the basic set up set on high, because I don't notice a difference when it's on low.

What should I disable to reduce lag in big builds on servers? Or is it because of the server?

Update drivers
Close unneeded programs
Scan for viruses/adware/spyware.
Disk cleanup
Defragmenting
If all the above fails, upgrade your hardware.

Although, if your client runs smoothly during this 'lag' (ex. you are able to open menus, and type messages without 7 letters popping up between intervals, but unable to move) then it could possibly be the server.

get one more mb of display memory :D

Turn down the graphics settings in Options

With a laptop, there isn't much you can do in terms of hardware upgradability to reduce lag.

Your best bet is to reduce you current game settings.

Open up task manager and end explorer. If you want it back go to file run explorer.

Use the wise words of an old Blockland player: Buy a new computer.

By checking that your anti-virus isn't doing that while you play Blockland.

hes not using a laptop.

cereal toucher, it looks like your using your onboard video, its using nearly all of your computer's ram for video, not leaving enough memory for the app itself.
basically, your not even using a video card, and you need to get one.

your board is the GeForce 6150SE, its got a PCI-express x16 slot to use.

i recommend a 40 dollar upgrade to your computer

Some of it has to do with the servers. Mostly if the host plays on the same computer he is running the dedi off of. you can allways try Cleaning your computer and defraging it and deleteing all the cookies and turn off ALL background task that you dont need. Windows has ton of random task you dont need. Turn off your anti virus spyware crap. It maybe your internet to. But i asume its has a lot to do with the server.
