I have done a search, but I believe my Search-Fu is weak, as I cannot see this question NOT being brought up. SEVERAL (10+) pages in the search and still nothing.

Has anyone ever played with no skill caps? Even using the thought of double karma after 6? If so, how is this working or is it? I'd like your thoughts if you wouldn't mind.

*Yes, I know the screams of power gaming might arise, but I am a long time player/GM and have seen characters reach retirement level with skills in the 11-14 range in previous editions.*
