I had a talk with a friend of mine about this, I'll quote it here:
(I am KittyYuln and Truthseeker83 is Vallel Yuln, sorry for possible confusion)
[15:26:22] KittyYuln: A human who has been taught swordmanship his entire life and is concidered a master, would be seen moderate for an elf.
[15:26:24] KittyYuln: Because an elf would have 5 times their time to train.
[15:26:37] KittyYuln: and thus be able to reach a much higher level.
[15:29:46] Vallel Yuln: I completly agree to your point.. but an elf would also not train as hard as a human for the most part.. they are more peaceful and are slower to do things. Humans train , train , train pushing their body beyond limits. While Elves are more laxed because they know they have time.

And that way they would learn more other things.
[15:31:36] KittyYuln: For example an elf could be a 'master' swordsman as well as a skilled blacksmith and tailor.
[15:34:02] Vallel Yuln: true... :) i'm sure the people would rage though that elves got more skills. They should try to do a blanced system.. while elves my learn more.. humans can level faster then elves in their training.
[15:34:28] KittyYuln: Mhmmm...
[15:35:41] KittyYuln: Something like that.
[15:36:29] KittyYuln: Mind if I put this on the post?
[15:36:32] Vallel Yuln: its not hard to balance it if they think about it.
[15:36:36] Vallel Yuln: sure i don't mind.
[15:37:30] Vallel Yuln: ocrs could master combat baased skills fastest and get a bezerk kind of skill when they blood rage.. casuing them to temp boost their skill level for a brief amount of time.. but after the rage ends they are temp weakned
[15:38:17] KittyYuln: Mhmm, good idea.
[15:38:45] Vallel Yuln: Dwarfs.. hmm they could have uniuqe speal skilsl in mining or smithing allowing to create better armor .. and weapons. And allowed to mine special ores other races cant
[15:39:34] KittyYuln: I would be cool if a bonus could be had if people around you are training the same skill.
[15:39:56] KittyYuln: That you train faster then.
[15:40:00] Vallel Yuln: halfings could get special bonuses for cooking and household type skills as well as ale brewing ect... then it trailed off.
