I already did and nothing became of it, but ok.
"The problem comes when people are new, or they go into a floor with the usual expectation of armor, pots, few deaths; and then people leaving the skilling to the side to be sorted out by anyone who wants it, as a "I don't want armor therefore I'm not going to skill. If you want it I don't mind, but I'm not making it for you"."

I've never seen that happen. If someone asks me to skill (only farming since my mining/smith are too low), then yeah I will lol. Same with Whynot and Lucas. However, this is very rare since a lot of other people prefer to skill while we prefer to fight, and it's better that way because we're good at what we do. As you said Divi, if you have a platebody (and especially if you have a hood in addition to that) bound, you really don't need legs to survive. In fact, I'd bet you'd survive even better if the person making legs was next to you fighting instead of at base skilling. Boss pots are kinda obsolete in the floors I do, or used to do, since they would always arrive or be ready when the boss was either already dead or low enough hp that teleing out and grabbing the pot would result in an overall loss of time.
Whynot and I understand that people in here want xp and fun to go along with that, we truly do. We don't get mad when people pick up food, base for prayer, etc., however, it does get a little annoying when people tele into a room without pray mage on and complain to us that they got hit really hard. Do any of you remember way back in the day when we'd have gt *outside* of the room to prevent that and how inefficient it was? Eventually we moved past that and just left gt in the rooms, and you all were fine with that.
With that said, I and a few others do believe that boss pots and legs are very unnecessary. Even Divi said that just a plate was enough. Most of the people in here have that AND a hood, so surely survival should be simple, right? Guess not though. :/
