You can set that in Forum Rules with Income Rate, Minimum points to post, and Forum:

It depends on what income rate you have set for that group or the forum members in general.

So for example, you could set money in Income Settings to be:
  • 5 points for a New Post
  • 10 points for a New Thread
And for the sub forum, you could set the income rate to be -1.

Lets assume for this example that I have $137 to start with, in which case if I post a new:
  • Thread in the designated sub forum, this then reduces my points to $127 dollars, which is a loss of 10 points.
  • Post in that same thread, this then reduces my points to $122 dollars, which is a loss of 5 points.
