However, there's one case where noderep as by the current system is useful: nodes with rep < -1, esp rep < -4 or so.
How so? I mean, it might be useful if you could skip the
nodes with negative XP, but in the perlmonks I visit, I
don't see the reputation of a node until I vote on it.
And unless I'm snobbish enough to go to the page listing my
write ups often, I don't see the reputation of my nodes either. So how does a negative node reputation help, as you
have to put in quite some effort to actually see the
reputation of a node?
