in reply to Anonymity and Courage

I posted Help Yourself or Help Others? anonymously because I didn't want XP from being a high-level monk asking a procedural question only tangentially discussing Perl, especially after seeing the reactions to my joke meditation (Confessional).

Plus, I wanted to see what an Anonymous Monk sees when he posts a top-level question.

    but why don't you want that XP? you're already a saint, so it doesn't much matter whether you get the XP or not, but i don't see why you would want to not get it. both Help Yourself or Help Others? and Confessional are good posts; i'm glad to see them. so what's wrong with getting the credit you deserve associated with them?

      One advantage is that it protects you from the accusation of "XP whore". A minor benefit, sure. Actually, saving the Monastery from having to listen to an accusation of "XP whore" is probably a larger benefit. (:
