Re: Reputation for anonymous monks

The first problem is it's too easy to defeat the need to log in or out: all you need to do is change the URL in your browser's address bar to point to a different domain. If you're cookied for www.perlmonks.org, just change .org to .net or something and there you go: all reputations would be visible.

One of us is missing the other's point. I was saying that you can be cookied for your own account with `.org`, cookied for the other with `.net`, and non-cookied with `.com`, so any solution involving accounts is not going to be any hinderance at all. Makeshifts last the longest.	[reply]

"My idea, therefore, is to reverse the current system so that if a monk logs in anonymously then the reputation of each node is visible" I think what johnnyfolk is saying (and you are missing) is that viewing the node reputation when logged out would be desirable, and being able to view the node rep this easily is a "good thing"™.
