The game has always been like that on purpose.
I assume it's a result of the feature that a player's first skill was free to learn and came instantly thus forcing people to buy additional skills instead of letting them cheat the system by just forgetting their only skill to get another free one and thus making school ownership useless.

Given that our first skill did cost wisdom and time to acquire, maybe this should be changed now?

Would make sense to make it an optional world setting, along with the first skill being free. Ever since OSD scripts have been programmed, it has been possible to make the first skill cost money via having the script deduct the items/money and grant the skill.

Mit could add two options:
0 - First skill is free and can't be forgotten
1 - First skill costs regular money and time but can be forgotten

It is an optional world settting and oddly enough its turned off.
It also doesnt affect me, but that may be because i've had to clearauth or something to test. Will get silent bob on it shortly..
