Unattended Archer Bot Protected Sheep Farming

Oops.
There were 2 Archers up there named "PMC".
I ran by this tower, started checking it out and they opened fire on me. Dropped me to 10% hp. I ran off. For some unknown reason one of the archer bots started shooting the other one. Archer bot one killed the other. It took 5 heavy crossbow shots for ARcher Bot One to kill Archer Bot Two. My grandfather could have stopped them from killing each other in that amount of time

.
I guess thats what happens when your unattended archer bot protected sheep farm goes awry.
Oh, BTW, thats 183,402 bandages up there.
Should something be done about this?
(also, classy racist slur character name)
(Also, coordinates included on screenshot intentionally.)

It took me quite awhile to find it.

Its funny, cause I read Wet Back like 20 times while looking for other slurs in the picture. Even googled Moogly wondering what damn slur you were talking about. Its one of those words that I just don't find that offensive.

Yah I had to go to urbandictionary.com to find out what it meant. At first I thought it was OP's name in the top corner (which I couldn't read).

To save anyone else Googling 'Moogly' - I tamed that sheep in Yew farms yesterday and named it that. I then released it apparently to a life of slavery. AFAIK it means nothing.
HTHs

People that defend multi clienting and other common exploitations that go on on this shard usually say that "Well, it's only a few people abusing it!" which is exactly the point.
But it's accurate, right!?

Yep, archer bots were the cornerstone of UO back in the 90s.

What kind of noob sets up an archer bot macro where they kill each other.
Would've been funnier if it then opened fire on the sheep

I think this tower needs a visit from cA. We need a new story anyways.

Would be interested to know why they were named PMC ... somebody 'stealing' my guild concept?

actually with stairs to the walls of the tower make the distance an archer can show 'seem' incredibly far, not sure the actual distance but it does seem far.

I'd assume the standard 10 tiles, you just look further away because you're higher up on the Z axis, which makes you "seem" to be standing further away
