Why don't you just start all skills at 100? Doesn't sound like most people here want to actually play the game.

My experience is that swimming has always been slow, but like Sense Heading, it speeds up once you reach a certain level, like around 40. Those first few points are tough, but they are tough also with Sense Heading. It's just that Sense Heading is a skill that requires a key, while swimming requires interaction with the environment. AKA, playing the game. My swimming is level 50 or so. Just from swimming in and out of Halas.

You want a skill that is killer to level up? How about Alcohol tolerance. Where is the cool AFK/Hot Key/ uber-macro for that?
Don't be a bitch.

Exploiting swim in a corner is classic.

You can swim into a corner as long as it has you occasionally jumping out of the water. Not sure why that seems to matter, but it seems to have an effect.
I suspect the change/fix was that no movement means no skillups, so if you're hopping up it can still happen, but wedging right into a corner with an EB item going or something won't work.
