It changes the registration dates to the 'start calculating on date' which screws up the preset user achievements. Doesn't do any good to report the errors/bugs because the dev doesn't want to hear it, he thinks it works- because he's using it from the beginning of time on his board, not from a set date. I've tried it on all 3 of my sites, using 4.06, 4.1.1 and 4.1.7 and the issues are the same on all 3.

Don't blame him. At first, I don't understand what you meant too :d
OK, Let try this, set Yes to: Options > Setting > Experience > Only active users? > Calculate stats only for active users. Please do a recount after you set this to Yes to get a clean calculation result.

Move inactive user in a period time that you set to another usergroup (maybe it call Inactive group), than use Ignore Group feature (same place with above setting) to ignore that group from recount.

Do a recount to update Experience points of active users.

So, when inactive users comeback, they have to collect point from the beginning or you just move them into an active usergroup than do a recount again.

It's just my suggesttion, do it if it ok with you and let me know if you success
