I just wanted to throw this out there but an advanced contracting skill would be nice for those of us doing marketing stuff in the game.

With the trade skills you have:
Trade---+4 orders per level
Retail--+8 orders per level
Wholesale--+16 orders per level
Tycoon--+32 orders per level

With Contracting operations you can only have a max of 21 personal contracts per toon.

Sure you can do corporation contracting and do contracts for your corporation but that requires rolls in you corp and trust of the individual doing the contracts. But for doing personal contracts if you are running large operations you need to have multiple toons running contracts to keep up with demand.

I think if we had even 1 advanced skill for personal contracts it would help even this out with the trade skills.

I would propose keeping it in line with the retail skills where the Advanced Contracting Skill would be either

2x or a 3x skill with 8-10 more contracts per level.

We can see where this takes us and then maybe in the future think about adding another such skill.

I'll see if it can be brought to the right ears.

This or remove the contracting skill from the game and make a 100 contract hard limit per person.
