Title:
  Newly-created looping aliases get their content erased

Status in Mudlet:
  Opinion

Bug description:
  Newly-created looping aliases get their content erased - see attached
  video demo.

  Introduced by
  https://github.com/Mudlet/Mudlet/commit/b925a00e537f675da4a0b3681968128577739cbd,
  I suspect the issue lies in returning out of the function so early -
  the function might be doing additional setup later on.

  One idea is to instead self-disable the alias. Then it'll keep self-
  disabling and stay disabled until the looping condition doesn't match
  anymore.

  As to whenever should it self-enable after the looping condition is
  fixed, I'm not sure yet.
