What is the society answer for the question asked here? (with the minimum intelligence being 7 of course)

Do the bonus skill points a character gains for being human or taking a level in their favored class apply after a negative intelligence modifier or before.

For example, would a human with an intelligence of 5 get three skill points per level (2 for being a paladin, minus 3 for being dumb (minimum one), plus 1 for being human, plus 1 for taking a level in his favored class) or one (2 for being a paladin, plus one for being a human, plus one for taking a level in his favored class, minus three for being dumb)?"

RPG rules questions aren't handled here. James Jacobs does give an answer in that thread that should be valid. Josh Frost has never over ruled him on those type of calls and there are nothing in the Society guide that says otherwise.


Yeah, this is a basic rules question and doesn't need a second answer here.
