So then you are getting the message?
As previously noted, permaroot is an entirely different mechanic than root. The dragons are not rooted. You can notice how aggro behaves differently on a rooted mob compared to a permarooted mob.
I understand that there is a likelihood that permaroot is not implemented correctly on P99, but the arguments on this thread do not really explain how or why.
What is the expected interaction between rangers and a permarooted mob and how does that differ from the observed interactions? Bringing up root in general seems like a red herring to me.

Permarooted mobs didn't count as rooted for the purposes of ranger archery double damage back in ye olde days, but they do on P99. When you shoot a permarooted mob on p99 it doesn't give the double damage message and the damage isn't doubled, therefore the mob counts as rooted for the purposes of ranger archery but without the proximity based aggro of normal root due to the way it's implemented on p99.
