One of the best features of Perl Monks is this equilibrium with which the imposition of this self-disciplined nature is exercised. It's this practice that keeps the Monastery vibrant and dynamic, you see some node not qualifying enough to the silently agreed upon consensus and you direct the OP to "How to post a node" or tell them to use a certain tag or disable another one, or remind them of The Mantra... etc.

The reputation of this Monastery wouldn't be blemished for the fact that an influx of NOOBs asking all sorts of questions, call them whatever you may, is taking place. I say this because of the equilibrium state dynamics involved and the push-pulls states that occur from time to time like ssandv's post with regard to interview questions and many other corrective actions that spring up from time to time. Perl Monks is there to stay and flourish and so are the NOOBs once they've caught a whiff of that equilibrium and they can be productive afterwards too, of course there're exceptions for there're those who seek plate-offerings of solutions and they'd ask the same question they sought answer for after a while rather than try expand the logic of. Worse still are those who elect to log in as Anonymous Monks and practice another level of stupidity mixed with misconceptions about the Monkeys being judgmental on them had they logged in with their real identities.

Now, to the main issue, the observant of the patterns of nodes can tell that ELISHEVA skillfully justified many points as well as the rest of all those who replied. However, I'd like to add that, It is in the human nature to be impatient but many of those ELISHEVA spoke about practice this impatience with a mixture of arrogance, argumentation or a flood of unrealistic questions that may seem to be unrelated to the normal course someone would follow while learning Perl, they question the essential-being of some established rules like they were shooting at Larry Wall for not having presented something or the other according to their capricious whims. It is just like they know better maybe or perhaps that they want to test the Monkeys capabilities rather than find answers, salutes to ssandv for having posted the node about interview questions, salutes to ELISHEVA for having nurtured this interaction from us and hail Perl Monks.
