I've gotten 3 this month so far (2 last week and 1 two days ago)...I thought I haven't been getting as many only because I'm not posting as much as I would during the holidays...
I don't think I've gotten any in February, and I've been posting more than usual. Granted I don't post tons but still. When the shop first came out I would get a few a week but now nothing.

I do feel like chances have been decreased. I wasn't sure because for a while in the beginning of the year I wasn't posting as much so I thought that was it, even if my ratio seemed less.
I got a forum point yesterday, but that was the first one in ages. I hope they will up them at least a little bit. At the rate they are dropping lately it will take a year to get 1 each of the new items. :(

What was the question?
While I'm not one to post all too often, a good majority ( like 80+ ) of my posts were after the switch from raffle tickets to forum points, and they feel few and far between, more so than sbq invites for me. ive got 6 points, and,... probably equal amount of invites considering i spend them as quickly as I do sp but, invites are ridiculously easy to get even out of random events. raffle tickets on the other hand make me feel like i need to post like, 1k posts in order to really get a single wearable from the forum shop. so its nice to know others feel the same and its not just crap luck mixed with my minimal posting leading to borderline nothing in terms of points :/

I haven't actually touched rates on the forum points - I've been getting a lot (but I imagine I post more than the average user). This is one of those things where people see new items come out and want to get them all TODAY when they're released but if you keep posting on the forums you should have enough points soon enough :)
I'll keep an eye over the next few days on the number of points going out and bump it up if it looks too difficult :)

I'm like Keith, I got a lot of forum points lately. I got two today alone. I'd say that I probably got between 8 and 10 since the start of the week.
I got a lot more than before the holidays.
Except for many of us it is not just today. As I said in my OP it has been since December that I have noticed a significant drop in the points I get.
They are a mechanism we are using to get people to post on the forums more often, so that is probably part of it :)

Well, I bought the Blob Kitty from the Forum Shop last month. Since then I've found two points and for February I can't remember getting any at all even though I posted more than in the months before because I was back in school so yeah, might only be a funny coincidence but I definitely noticed a difference.
I haven't gotten any in a while either, but admittedly I don't post all that much. Hopefully I'll start getting more once Survival starts and there are holiday boards to spam.
(Yes, this post is mostly an attempt to get a point.)
[edit]I didn't get one.
Personally for me, this is a "frustration that there are 3 new items in there I want to get when I barely managed to save up for one wearable since the shop went active because the wearables in there are too freaking expensive when compared to forum point drop rate" thing. At least Amber assured us there won't be any retirements in there soon, bless.
I've gotten like 1 point this week and I basically go on the forums and post like it's my duty every day. -sigh- I hope we can at least get points from event boards?
I don't post a lot so I know my chances of getting anything I actually want (read: the 20 point book) is going to take another 7 years.
I got 9 forum points tonight.
Seriously, this is insane
Omg do you ever shut up?
loool I called you Tche. How Old school of me ;)

I haven't noticee much of a change, but probably because there isn't anything I am dying to grab in there
Nine? Tell me your secret! I posted a lot yesterday and got one point. Go me. XD
Yups, I was at 4 forum points yesterday morning and I got 8 points on my biting thread alone plus a 9th one yelling at Keith.
So...yell at Keith more?
MORE yelling at Keith? I often feel like the constantly nagging neighbor that no one likes already, more yelling would take it too far I'm afraid, lol
What honestly bothers me about the whole thing is that they're called forum points now but you turn in raffle tickets and it counts them as raffle tickets.
But yes, the frequency of the points has dropped significantly since Christmas. I know it's supposed to be rare but going from a few to none isn't exactly good either.
