I do like the new system. All the more reason to hang out here more.
I think that voting up questions that illustrate common faults is a good plan, as this will hopefully illustrate to new monks that their question could well have been answered already.
I'd also like a way to list all the scribes, all the abbots, etc...
Also, would it be possible to have the reputation of each node be displayed next to the node title on home nodes?
