I agree that something should be done about the cooking skill. I really enjoy cooking in Runescape, but it does seem rather pointless. There doesn't seem to be that great a need for cooked dishes. Why not increase the need for them? Ideas: One has to eat every so often, e.g. once every 4 hours of playing. Or: when you eat, you can run longer or further or better. It would then also be fun to have food at the inns, or have food stores or bakeries to sell you homecooked wares? Making the cooking skill more useful would also increase the value of farming. It seems a bit disappointing to go through all the hassle of raising potatoes, onions or cabbages when you can just as well pick them in a field.
