in thread Why does Perl have typeglobs?

If you had posted this response with a user name I would happily up-vote it, it is a good response to the people who have replied to you. But I see no point in wasting a vote on the Anonymous Monk. (And if someone knows of a good reason to do so I'll listen.)

You must always remember that the primary goal is to drain the swamp even when you are hip-deep in alligators.

    The rulesruels of the game are, ++upvote nodes you like, not people you like ... PerlMonks FAQ -> How should I spend my votes? -- General Voting Guidelines

    There is a quote in a signature around: Examine what is said not who speaks

    It is understandable not to spend votes thank-you/summary type of nodes (like the case here), but the votes are never wasted on good nodes

    Hi :)

      Fair enough, but I prefer to give votes to nodes by people who can benefit from it (especially newer Monks.)

        People don't get paid for getting lots of votes, you know :-)

        The real beneficiary of an upvote isn't the person who posted the content, it's people *reading* the content, especially people who are less knowledgeable and need pointers to the best content in a thread. Please, upvote good content from Anonymonks.
