Your points economy review:
1.1. Don't expect there to be a way to setup automatic points transfers. The app is missing key core functionality that lets you earn points by posting. Admins must regularly manually give points to users, as there is no way to setup points integration with existing site apps like Forums or Clubs.
I can easily setup a rule to award point to someone who creates a thread in a forum (as an example).
I can even award point for the amount of times a member views a forum.
Automation rules is super powerful, the main reason it's blacklisted here is people (not referring to you) don't know how to use it and mess up their IPS install - then open support tickets w/ IPS Support and want them to solve the problem they created. Automation rules is like a chainsaw, if someone doesn't know what their doing they can lose a arm.

If you want to create a thread here: https://ipsguru.net/projects/points I'd be more than happy to line item your review and check each one of the things you say points economy / automation rules can't do.
I have nothing to do with Points Economy or Kevin, but I am pretty good at automation rules and I believe some of the things you said it can't do, it can.
