And nothing of value was lost.
"Awards no longer transfer points," though? That's a pretty good idea, because, at the very least, it should nullify all the asinine "clown farming" that was going on before, where assholes/trolls would make rage-bait posts, just for the purpose of getting gullible fools to give them clowns (and, more importantly, the Steam points associated with them). Because that's all the clown was ever used for, to indicate disagreement and derision of opposing opinions (whether stated opinions were "legit" or just for trolling). That won't stop people from using one of the new ones (like that shitty looking "Funny/ROFL" face, probably) to continue to express disagreement and derision, though.
*weary sigh*
