I kinda like the way you're thinking, but it it still has flaws that don't make it worth it.
If you choose specified sections to get credits for example, the lounge. The lounge should arguably be the most active part of the forum. Now if leechers realise that they can only receive credits from the lounge, they'll spam those threads instead of the leak ones.
Would you rather have spam under the threads in the leaking section or the lounge where people actually try to discuss. Of course, the moderators try to remove as much of them as possible, but there is no way a few moderators can deal with hundreds of people.
About changing the post credit worth, how would the system know that a post is helpful and give 2 credits instead of 1?
Getting rid of leechers is a whole other problem and this thread is about activity, so we're getting slightly off topic. Also talking about credits, they don't have much of an use to a regular member, this has been said in this thread as well. Only real use for credits right now is unlocking content and gambling.
