	// Some tradeskills are more eqal then others. ;-)
	// If you want to customize the stage1 success rate do it here.
    // Remember: skillup_modifier is (float). Lower is better
	switch(spec->tradeskill) {
	case FLETCHING:
	case ALCHEMY:
	case JEWELRY_MAKING:
	case POTTERY:
		skillup_modifier = 4;
		break;
	case BAKING:
	case BREWING:
		skillup_modifier = 3;
		break;
	case RESEARCH:
		skillup_modifier = 1;
		break;
	default:
		skillup_modifier = 2;
		break;
	}

Changing the default skillup_modifier here should increase the skill up rate of most tradeskills. I've set it to 1 on my servers before and it did seem to make them go up quicker.
