Disable earning points when users comment on their own post

    I have a problem with my users’ scores. They earn points when someone comments on their post. It turns out that users are creating posts and commented several times on their post they created to earn points.

    How do I veto the earning of points when a user comments on their own post?

    Hi @guivenancio11

    Thank you for telling us about the behavior of the “Comment to a post” event. The dev team has been informed to fix it as soon as possible.

    @dioni00 The same problem also occurs with the following events: “Favorite a Topic”, “Reply a Topic”, “Get a Reply in a Topic” and “Get a new Favorite on a Topic”.

    Hi @guivenancio11

    Thank you for telling us about these events, we will review the conditions to avoid giving points to authors in the case of Favorite and Reply a topic. As for the “Get a reply” or “Get a new favorite” events, these grant points to the user who wrote the Topic or receives the Favorite.

    Exactly, but if a user called “X” creates a topic and then user “X” comments on the topic themselves, they get points for having received a comment from themselves, which makes them comment like crazy on their own topic to win points.
