Not everything is reputation and XP. Perhaps, after you've ++'d a node, and want to give it that extra nod of approval, send the author a private message thanking them or telling them how much they enjoyed it.

They may not have anything tangible to show for it, but that isn't always what counts the most. 



C(qw/74 97 104 112/);sub C{while(@_){$c**=$C;print
(map{chr($C!=$c?shift:pop)}$_),$C+=@_%2!=1?1:0}}
