<Twelve Step Program Joke> Theo: Hi, I'm Theo, and I posted an answer to Perl Monks without getting the question. Support Group: Hi, Theo! </Twelve Step Program Joke> And I got downvoted, lost some points and so on. Given that I'm 1) not that fragile and 2) aware of the fact that miscommunications happen all the time, I came back and answered other questions. As to what should be done: if the poster has a point that he feels is worth archiving, he can post it as a stand-alone node. Assuming others agree, the new node will get votes and the poster will gain standing, both in XP and the more important community recoginition. I think communities remember people for their good contributions, except when someone insistently and repeatedly makes bad contributions.
