From an engineering point, I'm sure that the code that returns that string simply examines your current experience value, instead of your entire experience history. While it might be more accurate to include that search in the code, I would recommend against it because of the presumed hit on performance it would impose for all home node hits.

Update: A patch has been applied to the relevant section. When you have no XP, the system now reports, "None earned."

I'm sure that as you continue to participate, you'll work past this little problem. It might be worthwhile to take a gander at Turnstep's home node for links to other nodes outlining some participation strategies.

Hope this helps...
