Maybe someone could point me to a document or, barring such a document, please explain what the benefits of reaping over nuking are? I mean, from what I can tell, a reaped node just makes it slightly more difficult to see a node, but doesn't really remove it. I presume a nuked node is just taken out of circulation such that it can't be seen anymore?
If that's the case, I'm not sure why we reap at all - if a node is worthy of being deleted, it's worthy of being deleted, not just given a timeout in the naughty corner.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
