I think percentages would be more than fine.

No, you really don't. But it's nice for the player to be able to actually notice that their character is improving, especially types of characters that are defined by a certain skill. Besides, if a player sets a character on a 7 day tailoring project, doesn't touch the game for that entire week, and still improves that character, can we really call it powergaming? I guess in one sense it can be, but I think the players that are going to RP are going to do it regardless of whether or not we decide to add an extra number on the character page. I don't see a small change like this turning Cantr into WoW. The point is just to get players to log in for some reason.
