Again, ++ for effort, but I think you're confusing levels with something that actually *means* something :)

This idea of "perl knowledge" is extremely variable - someone could be a 'Perl Expert', but a poor programmer, and vice versa - but that's not all the monastery is about. Generally, my more useful contributions here have been to do with broader matters of application design, UI, or even 'attitude'. Where 'problems' are concerned, I'm *nowhere near* writing the book, but I'm fairly good at putting myself in the position of a newbie and understanding what they're trying to achieve, and that's what I think my XP reflects.

The sheer fact that (I hope {g} ) your XP will rise due to this Discussion reflects your input into the community - as an idea, it may be rejected, but as a means of provoking discussion, it's great :)

cheers,
Ben.

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.
