<p>I know this has been [id://77417|done] [id://110224|before], but I think it's time again. As before, please feel free to post anonymously if you'd rather, or not post at all. But I think almost all of us could use a little reflection on how we can help to make Perl Monks a better place.</p>
<p>Forgive me [id://106|father], for I have sinned. It has been 22 years since my last confession -- I'm not Christian.</p>
<ul>
<li>I have not come to the defense of those I feel have been wronged, but instead post things like [Return of the Confessional].
<li>I have been an XP whore in order to gain levels.
<li>I have gone to [Perl Monks User Search|my nodelist] everytime I see the "Ack! You have lost..." message
<li>I have not learned enough Everything to be a useful [pmdev]il, but have instead squandered my powers to seem more informed on the CB.
<li>I have put off posting things because I know they will be contriversial
<li>I have fed the animals
<li>I have refered to my Brothers in Perl as animals
<li>I have been wary of others, even when they seem to be improving themseleves
<li>I have not been effective as a peacemaker, because I have not put enough effort into it
<li>I have stayed out of conversations that I think are vital to the site's survival as a place of joy and learning.
<li>I'm sure I have done other wrongs. Please, point them out to me. In /msg.
