I had a gray elven wizard, and went to *holeinthewall* to learn pick pockets, and the Master Thief told me to get some more practice> then he didnt even teach me pickpockets! i checked my skills to see if i had it, but i didnt. So i couldnt practice, and couldnt join the thieves guild> so no detect traps for this guy...
Has this happened to anyone?

Two possibilities come to mind.

1. Your char was of some lawful flavour. The master thief won't teach anything to lawfuls
2. IIRC the master thief actually asks the char if (s)he wants to train (Y/n). If you happened to choose N then naturally your char won't learn the skill.

If neither choice is valid then this looks like a bug to me.

3. You had stolen something from the shop by being invisible, so the master thief incorrectly thought that you were a trained thief already.

(IIRC, this is a known bug.)
