Instead of having loads of dummy users downvoting respectable monks who do *un-1337* stuff, they should be upvoting their own nodes. That way they won't have pissed off monks hunting em down like rabbits and their XP would grow rapidly (while their IQ probably never changes).

Dude, think about your logic. If I have 500 nodes, and create 10 dummy users, I can only increase my total rep by 5000, and my XP by maybe 20% of that.

Whereas, if I vote all my nodes up, and everyone elses down, I'm gaining XP for the vote, and decreasing your XP, which puts me closer to 'level vroom', and above you in the 'Other Users' box.

And what exactly is a 'respectable monk who does *un-1337* stuff'?

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
