What it would mean is that some users' opinions are "worth" more than others
Well, aren't they? Without casting aspertions on their worth as people, which would mean more to you, an "Wow, I never thought of that. Nicely done" from Merlyn or Sickboy? Some user's opinions ARE worth more, either because they have more experience with Perl, or they have a better bead on what the Monastary is and how it works. If you troll around the bottom of the XP chart, you'll find something odd: monks who seem to know a great deal about perl, but just don't blend. It reminds me of a manager I had a few years back. He was brilliant, had great skills and tons of experience, but his social skills were so lacking that he drove his entire team away. No one wanted to work with him, and in the end, his childish arrogance cost him his job. Whe we're typing code into the machine, it doesn't matter how hard we hit the keys or what the semantic values of our variable names connote, because the machine has no feelings. In the real world, however, how the message is delivered is at least as important as the message itself. Consider these replies to a hypothetical question about split:
You tell me, monks. Which response deserves the most votes? All three give the same information, but in three different ways. Which one is going to help grow the Monastary and add to the community? Which one will leave someone pissed off and unlikely to return? Seems to me that giving Monks at Level 7+ one "Bless" per day that's worth 2-5 votes could help promote the best nodes, and rid us of the worst. Plus, limiting it to the highest levels will insure that only monks who've put in the time and effort to build the Monastary will have access to the extra power.
