Whether the correlation exists or not I still think that these two numbers should/could be separated. Then, those interested in "how good the monk is in Perl" will care about the votes given to monk, and those interested in overall XP will see these votes and how the monk participates in voting other peoples posts. Personally, I think that nothing should change and the present system is good to me, but it still confuses too many people.	[reply]

Do you have a solution for people voting up posts that contain demonstrably incorrect information? In the past month, I've replied to a good half-dozen posts, saying "That's not true!" In most cases, the parent posts have greater scores than my replies. Fix that, retroactively, and you might have something that works to evaluate the quality of any given post.	[reply]

I think the votes of wiser Monks should be heavier, perhaps in proportion to `log( XP )`.	[reply] [d/l]
