when Im sculpting with polygons and I grab a vertex instead of selecting one vertex maya will select several vertexes and they will move with the single vertex selected the closest thing that relates to this is when sculpting with NURBs and you try to move one control vertex Ive messed with the maya any options I could think of but the program remains unchanged, any advice?

happy to report that I figured out my problem, soft selection was set on in the move tools channel box sorry to waste anyones time with something so stupid
