No policy changes regarding points to my knowledge.  Reported to the developers.

I haven't really had anyone sign up from an invite from me, although there was 1 but I don't recall ever receiving points for their activity.  I gave up early on trying to track it, haha.

Thought that feature was disabled some time ago. Maybe it is on the repair list. Maybe Support will resond.

I have not received any either, most likely an unintended consequence of the renovations in the rain.

Invite is not working & hasn't been in awhile.  We were told not to do it until the system is more stable.

Most likely is the update that AR is going through.  

Good to hear they did not stop it and that they will look into it. I have a lot of referrals. 

Wish I could give you a cogent answer, Michael... but as I never invite anyone I don't know how those points get awarded or when.

It could be points are turned off while the invite feature and other upgrades are under development. Good catch - I would not have noticed that.  I do get points from the people I've invited and who are active during the month. 

Thank you ActiveRain Member Support for alerting the development team.

I think last month someone mentioned this, and ARMS said they are working on it, but you are right, none have been awarded.

Good observation Michael...until glitches are fixed, Ben has suggested that we avoid inviting new members until bugs are worked out...to be continued!

No idea. That function may have been turned off but, happy to report it for you.

I have no idea....haven't thought about those for many years. Do they still exist?
