Monks,
Let us look at this situation following way...
During any country's election, one may, would like to vote his/her favorite candidate two times, but the Democracy system doesn’t allow it. Because as per Democracy system "all are equal"
IMHO, in other words Democracy believes in 'Quantity' of votes rather than 'Quality' of votes. Due to this reason all the fools and intelligents are assumed to be on the same platform (this could be one of the bugs in this system of 'Democracy').
PM goes Democratic way. We need Not follow this system on 'as is where is' basis, but we can certainly bring some corrections.
I think only Monks ABOVE certain level should get more weight to their Vote (+ as well as - votes). 1 Vote by these special Monks could actually be equivalent to (+/-)2/4/6 XPs, depending on their level.

    That is an interesting thought! Can we expand it to Monks with a negative XP level too? If they vote ++ it really means -- and vice versa?
