Guard tower guards not responding to calls for help

[TrofeoLover1 2]

I was on Affliction, well within range of a guard tower, got attacked by a croc. So naturally, I thought, "Hey! I'll ask for help from this guard tower that sits here with all the guards standing around pointing at things and waving at everything." So I called the guards. And I called them 4 more times before I died. I returned to the same spot, and continued calling the guards. I'm glad to report it only took me calling them 8 or 9 times total before they decided to go ahead and work correctly.

 

My point - the guard towers in the game still don't work correctly. I don't like things that don't work correctly.

 

Yet another Wurm disappointment.

EDIT: The guards did respond in the chat, but not in the combat.

EDIT2: When I'm told to wait a few seconds because I already called the guards, I call faster. Just FYI.

I have found out until this is deemed a bug and gets fixed just kill the guards and spawn new ones once every couple weeks. I do it and it works perfectly.
