Your pretty defensive about your skill gain shade. I don't really understand the reason for it, we understand you have tested it and done it yourself. But everyones experiences are different in this game and lets face it, half of the game is about the little things (banking, smelting etc). Lots of things can happen while your training your skill that could slow you down. Also not everyone will have the "perfect macro". Instead of telling people straight up that they are wrong because this is the way you did it and if they aren't doing it that way then they are stupid (a bit of an exaggeration but thats the general attitude i feel coming from your posts on the skill gain topic) maybe listen to what they have to say about what they did and why.

We know you don't want to raise the skill gain for things like this because its POSSIBLE to get it done in the time you did it in optimal conditions, but lets say everyone else besides you takes twice the amount of time... It might be worth considering raising it so that the average person could finish it the time you expected where as someone with intimate knowledge of the workings of the game and macros and scripts could get it done a bit faster.

Also, i'm not saying here you should raise it, as i haven't touched mining and i have no intention of doing so. Just trying to say you should let people talk about this kind of thing without becoming defensive about it because obviously not everyone is having the same experience training it that you did. (just going off the times that people were posting in this thread)
