I've heard of perlmonkeys from my webhostress... Is bishop good? or bad? When's the antipontif libraries being loaded?anders pearson - Wed 20 Feb 2002 20:04:26
tmonks, not monkeys. hence the religious metaphors. here's a full explanation of the <a href="http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?node=Voting%2FExperience%20System">XP system</a> on perlmonks. bishop is the 8th level out of 10. it's taken me since last may to get this far. 1600 XPs accumulated by visiting every day, voting on the quality of nodes, and mostly from <a href="http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?orderby=createtime%20DESC&usersearch=thraxil&node=Perl%20Monks%20User%20Search">answering other monks' questions</a>. kind of like the whole karma thing that slashdot does but less retarded and as you get more XP, you get more power around the site (more votes, editting capacity, the ability to move nodes to the front-page, etc).
