Lately I havent been here much, but one rule of thumb for me is to frontpage stuff if the front page is stale and the node is decent and not long. I think its better for the front page to be fresh than to worry about the XP related effects. And I dont necessarily think FP'ing a node youve replied to is wrong either. Im somewhat reluctant to do it I agree, but if the original node is particularly good I will.
