Gaining points to go up levels

Hi guys 😀

I know that members gain points when others like their posts or comments. However, it seems they don't gain points if others comment on their posts/comments? - see screenshot attached - it seems 1 like = 1 point and comments don't matter.

I've had some of my members ask why comments don't count. Social media platforms see comments as even more valuable than likes (it takes more effort to create a comment than hit the like button) and reward posts with a load of comments over one that just has a load of likes.

Can I request this feature be added? I think members who get comments should get points, as they are creating the most engaging posts. Inside my group, some people forget to hit the like button and write comments instead, only for that comment to 'not count' on the point scale.
