The mechanism of voting is interesting because it is public and lasting. If you write something, I can read it one month later and show my appreciation (or disdain, sometimes) by voting it.

On the contrary, CB contents, even the most interesting pieces, fade away after one hour or so (if you use the CB last 35 page.)

That said, if you feel that somebody deserves your voting thanks, nothing prevents you from browsing that Monk's nodes and upvote the ones that you find valuable, gaining some more knowledge in the bargain.

So, after you got some useful advice from tye on a parser, for example, go to super search and try nodes with "parser" in their title, written by tye, and for sure you'll find something that you can add to your bag of tricks. If there is nothing on the subject for which you got the advice, then list his best nodes and carpet bomb them with upvotes. :)

It's part of the Monastery's culture. Live with it!
