Have the votes of experienced users carry more weight in voting. ie. when a saint votes ++ on a node it has a 100% chance of XP increase, whereas for a Monk it is 50/50, and a low-level user is the usual 33% chance.

Arg. Here's another suggestion: let's get rid of XP alltogether. There are too many people think that if you got some high level you are more capable than someone else. Being "saint" doesn't mean you are better than someone who is a novice. It could just mean you're flooding this place with useless postings, or that you have voted a lot yourself.

Postings like this, that force saints on some silly pedestal make me contemplate retiring my id, and start afresh with a new one, or post anonymously.
