Hi jdporter
A fun post - but I don't think it's the truth. People love to help. Also/especially here at perlmonks. Maybe there are people ouside, who think that a fast response is much better than a good one (with regards to the XP-game) ... and maybe a bad answer provokes the knowlegdable monks to answer faster than they normally would (as you claim) ... but I believe in the good of our fellowship. Any monk will get a good answer without using your "tactics". And maybe the answers you would get would even be better, if you don't haste the others to correct mistakes ... that would be well worth the wait ...
All the best, Rata

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.
