My only request is that your motivation not be primarily to use up your votes for the vote bonus, but rather to add value to the site by contributing to the 'score' of each post.
So please be open to downvoting bad nodes you find. (But not too much; you don't want to stray into dog votes territory.)
Thanks!

I hardly ever use up my 30 daily votes. The one thing i make sure is that i upvote well asked questions (not just the good answers) in SoPW. Writing a well-designed request for assistance takes time and effort(*), and upvoting those encourages the requester to use just as much effort on the next questions.
(*) Writing full sentences with a beginning, middle and end. Using puncuation and paragraphs. Including a SSCCE. Bonus points for stating wich Perl version and Operating System is used, as this makes it much easier to check for well known bugs.

Could you give an example of what you mean?
Edit
Ok I see now https://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=480;next=299
I recommend you use super search, restrict to meditations and sort accordingly.
Update
Like Meditations, root nodes only, oldest first and hit search.
Update
> Is there a good reason for that?
I suppose the same reason why you can't run super search without hitting search first. Searching is expensive and bots are stupid.
So dynamic search is either tolerated for limited numbers only or they are cashed with a hard limit.
