I agree with you wholehartedly, but still it looks to me that adding Perlish value is more important than adding "behaviourial" value, and community should be more forgiving for those people.

Also, I remember Chip Salzenberg also was punished for (almost) nothing; he is (ex)pumpking, and we must have the "proper fined respect" for those people.

PSThe only reason I am acting as AnonyMonk here - I do not want harm them even more by showing who I am; I am not great XP collector, (although have 6000+ and will happily share some of those with someone who needs them more than I).
