After discussion amongst the moderators (moderators = JMs and mods), points have been turned off for Storybooks and the Debate Group. This does not mean you have to pay to post there now! It's still free to post, but you don't get anything for posting.
When we added points, it was done to encourage critiquing and activity in certain areas of the board. Back then, storybooks was dormant. Now it's by far the busiest forum and the third most popular area of the site overall (not including the home page). Allowing members to continue to earn points in storybooks subverts the idea behind points, so it's been turned off for now.
EDIT
With regards to the Debate Group, that area of the site is going to be active no matter what. Since you don't critique there and because there's no need to encourage activity there, points have also been turned off there for now.
