Well a lot of my staff members just caught this and told me that you can cheat the system and get posting credits by just editing the same post.

So basically, if someone makes a post, they get 7 credits (according to my system), and if they keep clicking the edit button they will get 7 more credits just for editing it.

Is there a way to remove this? or is this how it's supposed to be?

but then they wont gain anything.

This is to ensure that if someone edits their post to have more/less characters for instance, they get the correct amount of points.

I'm sure @Darkwaltz4 can explain more for you =)

is this how it's supposed to look?

decado and edrondol have it correct - and your screenshot of settings looks correct too.

they can still cheat it, I just tried it again.

Well, this specifically should not happen if you have configured it as we said. PM me an admin login with vbcredits permissions and I will make sure everything looks right (and debug it for you if its still happening and your settings look fine)
