monk H2H skill up issue
 

Even though my hand to hand as a monk can only currently max out at 40, and in my skills window shows a skill of 40 in red, I am still getting skill-ups in hand to hand...I currently have a 46 skill for h2h displayed at my guild master.

Lots of rogue skills have this same issue. They will show red at the correct level they should be maxed at, but then you still gain skill-ups. I have been told that what's displayed in your skills screen is the actual. If this is the case it's ok for us rogues as our skills go past what they are supposed to. Yours sounds like it's under what its supposed to.

Is this issue as a whole un-fixable? Or what's the definite answer on which value is used: the number in the skills window or the number of your current skill-up message?

theres a thread on this elsewhere within the last week.

Its the current fix to wrong skill caps for certain classes. They cannot stop that you get the skill-ups, but they can prevent you from actually having your skill that high, which is where the red number comes into effect.

It's kind of like when you just level and get some skill ups, but then you die and the skill goes red and caps back at the level you just were.
