Poll: Why do you give out XP?

[Nifft]

I give out XP because what the hell else am I going to do with the stuff?

You can't eat it, or stab things with it, or even sell it.

Some people like it because if they get enough they can pick some new spells, but apparently I have no class.

And remember, kiddies...if someone asks you if you're a Mod, say "Yes!". It will save a lot of trouble from giant marshmallow trolls.

Mr. Stay-Pufft Marshmallow Nifft would never, ever destroy us.

I'm thinking Alzirus- the ENWorld Kitten- is far less dangerous than Nifft.

Less spiteful too, if I recall the Metatroll thread properly.

Only one person so far has admitted to giving out random XP. Let's change that. I summon [MENTION=84774]surfarcher[/MENTION]!

Good thing that Morrus has already gotten rid of all of our moldy Babylonian Sumerian Mods...

I give out xp for science, for example, figuring out how much you have to give before you can give it to the same person (29) etc. much of my work is done with surfarcher as well, and darjr has helped us out with this before.

Did you vote for that option?

Of course I did

Well, it's not like he had a choice. It's winter. The Summerian mods will be back in May.

Oh wait, I forgot about the NZ mods... Plain Sailing is probably Summerian right now.

an option for if you wished to pursue it would be to create another account, then give yourself XP, but that seems like more work than it is worth.

You left out one of my bigguns: I give xp for anything that I perceive to be community service, whether it's posting a link to an interesting article, making a community resource (e.g. editable pdf character sheet, collection of cool maps) or doing something that actively helps one or more members of the community here, or the community as a whole.
