Child,
Let not these fears haunt your soul for it is merely that fact you bear little ability to illicit votes in others.
(Note: It's a joke. Settle. Settle. Put that gun down! No for god's sake man! Don't do it!...)

Anyway...

I, like others I imagine, don't share your loss over the XP nodelet. It seems to reappear as required to share the news of good fortune.

update: I bow my head in shame over this attempt at wit. I shall stop now.

In short: The nodelet seems to work as you requested for me at least. Maybe the more senior amongst us could examine the code for something user specific.
