[Eighty Swords]

But, you cant afk mining, so you will see the guy trying to kill you or your ride.!
Jaaa!!
Caught you afk miner !

Well if I am an AFK miner and I get past the anti afk macro, then there's nothing wrong with it now is there? As far as UO is concerned I'm a good little boy hahaha.

The reason I'm against pack animals is because a red is red because he wants to be, so he doesn't care if he kills my blue pack animal. It's not like he's losing the ability to go somewhere (blue towns) when he doesn't want to go there. And not every mine is like Minoc and guarded or 20 steps between guard lines.

Yes I could polymorph into a dragon or I could recall between areas to avoid the reds, but that means I have to carry regs and have less space for ore. About polymorphing into a dragon; if I turn into one and can now carry say 1000 stones, when the time is up do I drop everything over 440 stones? Because if I miss the recast by just 1 second and drop it all that really defeats the point.

The quest idea is great, but miners want to mine. They don't want to spend time going to kill a monster for a bit more strength. And the problem with giving more strength is that you get more HP, and it was agreed to have max stats of 100/100/100. Besides, how much more strength are we talking here? Another 10 points? That's only about another 10 ore or 30 ingots I'd say.

I'm just looking to be able to carry more weight when resource gathering, not at all times. How much gear or regs do you need other then when you're in a tour? Not that much and you don't have to recall every 5 minutes to restock when hunting.
