I'm not complaing about saints. I'm just pointing out the limited value of the entire voting system. I don't have an opinion of what saints should be, but I know they are not necessarely what many people think they are. And this discussion only reconfirms that. I've always said that XP has no relationship to one's ability to program in Perl, and that it is therefore silly to give more weight to a post of someone with a high level that to one with a lower level.

As for an "other users" nodelet, I don't have that nodelet turned on. Why should I care who has made a request to perlmonks in the last $NUM minutes?
