I can't figure out the points
 

I am trying to make it where you get 3 points for creating a thread, and 1 point for replying to a thread.

I have the thread multiplier set to 3
have the reply multiplier set to 1

replying to posts gives me 5 points, and creating a thread it givign me around 40 points. What am I doing wrong?

nevermind, I feel like an idiot. I didn't realize that each forum had it's own settings for points and the multiplier was multiplying those numbers.

MAybe you are the Administrator and have a Usergroup-Multiplier?
