[[Animated scripts|Mobile scripts]] that automatically crawl around the canvas and delete everything in their paths. Roombas function much slower than manual wiping and are usually limited to a small radius around the center. Despite this, these scripts are almost universally despised since they lack the ability to distinguish between spam and [[Art|original content]].

The first roombas originated from [[Your World of Text]] in late 2022, and were created by a user who was simply named The Janitor. They were then duplicated by a user named [[Catha'Vi]], who brought them to OWOT in 2024. Another scripter named [[Prohibit]] would later create their own roomba in 2025, though this one didn't see much use.

=== Black hole script ===

A script from November 2025 that slowly sucks in text in a small radius. The center switches periodically between a full block unicode and a note link that didn't appear to contain anything.

The creator was later revealed to be a scripter named [[Banksy]], who had been an anon up until December 20th, 2025.

=== Bomb throwing script ===

Another script by Banksy. This one throws bombs, which arc across the canvas and detonate into small unicode explosions. The user can control the direction and distance of the throw.

A version of the script also included a mobile tank from which the bombs would be fired.<gallery mode="packed" heights="250">
