XP whore, n.: a common PerlMonks idiom to refer to an individual who is more concerned with Experience Points (XP) than with what they're meant for, and would do anything for them, including undertaking unethical actions like plagiarism. Apparently first showing up in a node (as "XP-whores") shortly after the introduction of the voting system itself.
Also used is the verb "XP whoring", to refer to the act of behaving like an XP whore.

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).
