Ron, with the new point system, maximum you get points for 50 commnets - no matter which post on which one writes comment.

This is a good question. I thought it was now up to 50 comments a day, and other members have confirmed that.

With the new system, you get points for up to 25 comments PER DAY. It is not per post. So, if you have an old post that has over 25 comments, it can still points, if you haven't gone over the allotment of 25 comments.
Likewise, if you have written more than 1 post in one day, the points will stop after 25 comments per day, regardless of how many are on each post.
