Will the server lag or will i have any problems if i for example make a callback which saves the user database and then use this inside.. OnPlayerUpdate so it saves user file continually or should i make a timer ?

Writing to disk in OnPlayerUpdate is the worst thing you could possibly do. Better to use a 10, 20, 30 minute timer or write changes the instant they're changed.

Why onplayerupdate? when you can save them under onplayerdeath? anyway I tried before saving player database under onplayerupdate and I can feel the delay, for me adding timer in onplayerupdate will make things worst. But let us see if someone recommend better.

You set a timer under public OnGameModeInit() because you need a global timer (SetTimer not SetTimerEx)
