Try check MaxLoopTimes setting on sphere.ini, because this value is used to limit FORITEMS/FORCHARS/FORCLIENTS/etc loops (avoiding heavy/infinite loop) so if you set MaxLoopTimes=1000 (example) it will not allow FORCHARS loop 9999 times

But anyway "FORINSTANCES i_worldgem_bit" is more reliable than "FORCHARS/FORITEMS 9999", because FORINSTANCES i_worldgem_bit will loop through all i_worldgem_bit items on server so this will only affect spawned NPCs. On the other hand, using FORCHARS 9999 -> REMOVE will cause some problems because it will only find NPCs under 9999 distance ~on this same map~ and will also remove NPCs not linked to spawns and player mounts/pets
