I personally feel one MUST know HTML, and with that, intermediate design should be there. Now, in order to "master" the web, you must have some marketing and networking skills...otherwise you just have a dormant site sitting there.
In regards to scripting, etc... I am competent enough to install scripts if the instructions are there. I can configure them to do what I need and look how I want. However, if I need custom stuff down, I outsource it.
Does this not make me a webmaster? I feel I'm still worthy of being considered a webmaster. I manage my sites, design them (unless it's a paysite or affiliate program), market them and optimize them.
I'm assuming many of you feel the same.
