So if you want good XP in "The Monastery" you have to brown nose every member, like a lot of people do.

That is so absurd it barely merits a response. First of all, brown nosing "every member" would be a silly policy, even if you were into that whole brown nosing thing.

Second, I never have and never will be a brown noser and I dare you to come say that to my face.

Oh wait, you didn't mean me right? You meant the "Perl Troll Army". If you behaved halfway sociable, you'd never even have that delusion. Sigh.

Oh, and for what it's worth, security has been part of my job since at least 1994 ... I'm sure that you're the real expert here though.
