As far as I can tell, Abigail doesn't like Perlmonks for two reasons:
  1. She doesn't care to wade through the masses to get to what she values.
  2. The unfinished interface is not to her liking.
Okay, I'll grant her first point. Personally, I find that a dissapointment as I am clearly a mid-level Perl coder and I suspect that any site that's good enough for me is scraping the bottom of the barrel for her. I lose out on her wisdom, but that is my choice for hanging out here and her choice for not doing so. That's fair enough.

The second point is ridiculous. Claiming something is flawed but pointedly ignoring the fact that it's beta is ridiculous (yes, I know that she's aware that it's beta. I'm commenting on her not making any allowance for this fact.)
