No it actually doesn't matter. People get too concerned over titles/levels and XP. It is the same all over. A game site I am on, people rush to get the highest level and get rather violent if posts get deleted, or they loose levels. As I have said there and vroom has said here "A million XPs and a cup of coffee gets you a cup of coffee"
What I am calling is the voting for the xp is when you see a post that basically says "Yea you're right" and it has 10 votes. Heck, Merlyn can make a strange post and he would probably get 15 points for it.
My only gripe about the XP whoring is the fact they rush to get bad posts(ie --'d heavily) removed. Sometimes these posts can actually teach things.

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
