rrrrrr

the skill system was always used as a guideline. i have never heard of or seen anyone thinking they gave actual benefits

I remember the skill system being actually fairly recent, since it was there when I started out and stayed for a while... So closer to 2/3 years ago as far as I know.

But yes, it had no mechanical use.

I have seen new players asking about it from time to time, if it's mandatory to fill out, or if it has any mechanics attached to it.

The skills tab had no warning or explanation that it's useless, so a new player couldn't know there's no point filling it out.
