People don't get paid for getting lots of votes, you know :-)

The real beneficiary of an upvote isn't the person who posted the content, it's people *reading* the content, especially people who are less knowledgeable and need pointers to the best content in a thread. Please, upvote good content from Anonymonks.

In order to see some node reputation you have to vote on it first, and in that way they are mostly useless for newbies as a way to discern good and bad answers.

AFAIK, sort nodes by reputation is still available on perlmonks, so even if you can't see the reputation, you can see the ++ed replies first
