Dear johnnywang,

Read more on this site and see the saintly business is one like any other. PM's saints aren't venerable and they do the dishes no better than most people.

Receiving recognition for questions is actually worth more than for answers. Whatever monks may know, they must have learned through some lucky discovery... or some monk asking, be that others or you:

Questions do build the site no less than answers do.
Asking questions means taking the lead. Go, champion! =)

Cheerio, Sören

PS: but do as you like to choose: find some god and ask for an XP freeze.
Though I feel that if you don't mind XP, you really shouldn't mind levels either.
