Im finding this strange and yes every post is over 5 letters

I don't know what the regular rate is, since I don't post enough for that, but did you get any gift boxes? Maybe the points get pushed back a little in favour of the boxes?

Ive gotten about 25 boxes all up.

usually I might post 7 times in a day and get 1 Forum point. Others are getting heaps of forum points

I hardly ever get forum points, so I'm not really a reference. And I only got 3 boxes since it started. I guess it's random, or maybe you missed the event in between all the dancing events?

i checked the currency and my forum points were at 1 on friday and they are still at 1 now no events

maybe with the boxes, they put forum points at a much lower rate temporarily :0

I'm getting considerably more forum points than giftboxes (2 boxes, probably 6 points). I've posted maybe 40 times..

EDIT: Just got another giftbox posting here

I'm getting 1 gift box per 5 posts I reckon. lucky you I'd rather the points. Only getting junk in the boxes and I need so many things from forum shop.

I find the rate of FP is usually around 1 in 7-10 for me. But the number seems to be lower ever since kissing started. I feels like they reduced the rate at that time and just left it there after that event.

I've never noticed in the past a reduction in forum points when giftboxes were given out. So I wouldn't expect it now.

Or it could just be really bad luck, I do know the Subeta random number generator is very wonky.

it took me 400 posts to get 1 forum point before Masq started, so it has nothing to do with the boxes

Yeah I havent gotten many forum posts today. I got a lot yesterday though.

I got 2 points in all my posts (however many?) and no boxes.

Edit: no, two boxes, after all.

I'm not much of a poster so I when forum points became a thing calculated the benefit to me of making uninteresting posts just to get forum points. At that time, the drop rate averaged at one in twenty and has stayed that way for a long time.

I also do currency speculation, and forum points are convertible into which is how the system used to work. The cost of them has dropped enormously, even more than during kissing and ToTing earlier in the start of this 2018-2019 holiday season. Either a lot more dancing is going on than anything ever, or the drop rate really has gone up like other users have posted here.

I think you are posting somewhere that doesn't get you forum points, or something's wrong. My guess is that your counter is wrong, but there's no way to know unless file a Ticket in Help.
