>>730834261You would not stop giving people you disagree with politically a clown award. You made us do this.
Steam's "redditfication" was a mistake.
>>730834330I can already see the flower becoming the replacement clown award.
>>730834330
>>730834443Not an argument!
>>730834443that's me
>>730834330oh no... not a heckin clown emoji next to their post. who cares?
>>730834261What am I supposed to do with all my points now?
>>730834261
>>730834261emotes and upvotes are objectively a bad design for a comment/review section, it devalues reading and comprehending it into a face value reaction
>>730834261the only reason you pretend to care about this is because you can't post that stupid clown emote next to people who post about valid LGBTQIA+ issues
>>730834261>YOU WILL BE HAPPY BECAUSE EVERY AWARD IS EXPLICITLY POSITIVE AND YOU WILL BE HAPPY ABOUT ITThe laughing one could be used mockingly.
>people are seriously defending the fucking wannabe Reddit awards they added just because they now removed the most abused one
>>730834261kek zoomers actually care about this
You were never funny or relevant, deal with it
>>730835318who cares? the people who suffer the most from this change are the ones actually contributing thoughtful reviews and well made mods. what incentive do they have to write a 6 paragraph review or spend hours and hours making a mod if they can't even get a few stinking points to decorate their profile? valve is jewish
>>730835273>Feats of strength
>>730834261I think the life guard thing could be use as an insult.
>>730834261Wow those look like shit kek why even replace them, I thought they were pretty cool and unique.
>>730834261Give it a week and half of these will mean something racist.
>>730834261everything's just going to shit isn't it
>>730836091You just KNOW what they meant by that bullseye
>>730836264can you explain?
>>730835672>can't even get a few stinking points to decorate their profile?YOU tell me who cares about that shit
>>730836327no
>>730836342most of the steam community, given how many people don't have blank profiles. so you're the outlier here.
>>730835318Bravo! Valve should remove the option to Not Recommend games next, thumbs downs are mean and the measure worked wonders for youtube.It will benefit everyone if top rated reviews pointing out shitty practices would be drowned in a sea of fake praise from bot accounts.
Russians having a melty because losing the $10 they got from farming awards and selling points is financially devastating
>>730836529very well lets add upvotes to 4chan xD!
>>730835672I guarantee you literally nobody gives a shit about the steam points that come from the awards on either side of the transaction outside of the weird poorfag third-worlders who rush to post the lowest-effort bait in the forums/reviews of every even remotely high-profile release.>pls add/remove lgbt devs>>730836489After you buy a handful of games you will have more points than you will ever need in your life.I have like over 100000 points just burning a hole in my inventory because I don't care - i already have a profile background I like, and I don't want 10 separate showcases cluttering my profile.
>>730836705I've never heard that point selling was a thing until today. I'd wager most people didn't know either. Why pretend like it was a lucrative business lol
>clown badge trannies utterly BTFOLMAO, I see this as a win.
Sweet Baby won. Valve is theirs.
>>730836705>>730836763You can't. What planet do you idiot retards even live in?
>>730834261This suddenly makes an account priceless.
>>730836763huh? i can sell this shit?
>>730834261>we're making too much money on people disagreeing with each other!!!>it's making certain (((perspectives))) look bad!It's funny because Steam is more woke than publicly traded companies. Most of them at least would prioritize profits.
>>730834330Maybe they should have an official thumbs down or disagreement then? Then people wouldn't resort to clowns. This forced positivity shit is sick.
>>730834261They look really shitty and soulless wtf.>>730835672>ones actually contributing thoughtful reviewskys you fucking redditnigger pseud. you arent smart and steam user reviews isnt a place for "critics" to larp as intellectuals. back to your gay video essays NOW
>>730834261Have a good look at the shape of that light bulb.
>>730834261The ADL will label this anti semetic, in time.
What the point of Steam Points outside the free badge?
>>730836998Leveling up accounts which is useful in some applications such as making alts for cheating and trying to remain incognito

>>730837114>retarded babblingHave the dignity of shutting the fuck up when someone calls out your stupid bullshit. Your mom is a whore, else she'd have taught you better.
>>730837069For users like me, most emotes you have to own the game to claim the points in, and the steam market dried up when most people can redeem with points.
NOOOOOOO MY STEAM POINTS RMT FARM
>>730834261>>YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE POINTS FOR AWARDS AND BE HAPPY ABOUT ITCHANG WILL NOT SURVIVE THE WINTER
>>730834261They created a new misogyny award (coffee cup} to placate you chuds
>>730836706There is! All you need is to click on the fellow anon's post number and reply with this
>>730837365This has to be shooped. No way are people spending the price of games, which includes points, on only points that do 0.
>>730835325Now they'll just spam the star of david lightbulb, instead

What's the life ring for? When would you even use it beyond telling someone they are drowning in retardation?
>>730837617>>730836979they'll modify that within weeks of release
>>730836924you're having a tantrum because you can't even string 2 intelligent sentences together let alone enough for a lengthy review. back to your mother's teet you retarded infant
I have a million points. What was I supposed to use them for?
>>730837964well, before you could have dispersed them to your friends and family via awards. now they're locked solely to your account and you can only decorate your own profile.
>>730837789Lifesaver, like when someone makes a good guide for game fixes or saves a massive amount of time
>>730838089Sooo... they've always been worthless. Gotcha.
>>730837789lmao anon exposing his own retardation
>>730838306if doing anything with your profile is worthless to you then yes
>>730836979the mark of an intelligent nooticer
>>730838363>b-but cosmetics!You sound like a woman.
>>730837573Points used to go for about $1.5 per 5K steam points.
I've never once used the clown badge because I'm not an insufferable cunt.
>>730834330You could stop being clowns
>>730835325>Valid >Including anything past LG
I know people point farm, but what the hell do they use them for? I've got 372,819 just from buying games since this system came out and I've bought maybe 5 things with it. I guess people are just treating their profile page like a myspace and filling it with tons of shit?
>>730838431and you sound like a fag. needing to prove your masculinity over something as insignificant as this is the sign of a godless fag. hope that helps
In particular to the lightbulb since it's like a star of David

>>730834261>>730834679Do you know why people said Steam forums were crap? By jesterThe vast majority of users were farming them with offtopic replies, and it was always nonsense to browse through the first posts with things like>Please don't add woke content.>Please add more LGBT content.I'm glad they finally got rid of that.
>>730838363No one looks at peoples steam profiles like that. The only interesting ones they have is for the steam deck keyboards and theres only like 5 of the. Although it would be funny if steam tried to be the next Twitter but with a MySpace spin. If they ever go public I could see this happening.
>>730834261Upboating is not video games
>>730834407Everything I like became redditified.

this is a (You) farming attempt disregard OP and give me all your (You)s
>>730838859it takes 1 second to realize it's just a troll post. you're not seriously suggesting it was worth to remove the entire award system just because the suits at these shitty game companies couldn't tell what is a real post and what isn't?
>>730834261who the fuck even uses the steam pointsi have like four hundred thousand of them
>>730839034You can use them to buy cool stuff for your steamdeck if you have one
>>730839034Nothing, you should give them all to me
i have never once read a steam review
>>730838970it was rewarding spam and giving the impression to other users that posting irrelevant bullshit on posts = free attention + points
>>730838823I have at least 38. More like 47 actually.
Tbh the jester awards were one of the main reasons I used Epic over steam, might come now that they're gone
Niggers are Shit.
>>730839087Go ahead and name the amount of options. Theres like 4 keyboards
They're going to transition to coffee award farming>As a female gamer, XYZ bait..
>>730839285this so much this
>>730839371awards don't give points anymore so there is zero reason to do that. in fact, if you go to any game worth a damn right now, you'll notice there's suddenly zero top posts asking for more/less LGBTQIABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ+ content. curious.
>>730834261>>YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE POINTS FOR AWARDS AND BE HAPPY ABOUT ITwho else sold their points before this?
>>730839535but... my ukrainian translation...... no.........
>>730836918They're awards, not upvotes.
>>730834261Here, retard. This award is for you.Now keep seething as you do, knowing you can no longer gain anything off of being an annoying fucking retard online. :)Grow up and find a job and hobby to keep yourself preoccupied with.
Why can't they give a coupon for award points again, they've literally only done it once and that was when the fucking thing was introduced
>>730839695>it must be ruined for everyone because some retards were farming clown awardsSo this is "democracy" lmao
>>730837103It's the other way around you schizophrenic retard.The most handicapped shit kept on getting posted and spammed over and over again in order to farm jester awards and points.Now they have no incentive to do so anymore.
So what's the new clown award gonna be
>>730839790Proof?
>>730839824i mean, i guess it has to be the new hilarious. nothing else jumps out as potentially negative
>>730834414Why that and not the laughing emoji?
>>730839335There's a few good ones
>>730834330the community just have to picik one of those as the "dislike" button
>>730835318To be fair, I don't think many people are expecting high-brow discussion on the fucking Steam Community pages.
>>73083933582 different intro movie things as well
I've been using web forums for 30 years. The vast majority of them did not have clown emotes.Keep seething.
>>730840143Okay there unc
>comes to the site where ppl farm (yous)>thinks ppl don't/won't farm (yous) on steamlollmao
>>730835772You mean the rectum?
>>730840143they're going to start silencing negative speech altogether and then you'll be the one crying, boomer
anyone who cares about this legitimately needs to kill themselves for everyone's sake
>>730840015Why would you want your steam deck to start slower to watch a 10 second+ opening sequence instead of just opening to your games?
https://steamcommunity.com/app/593110/eventcomments/691998565820532380>all 12 awards' flavortext on the awards at the topman nothing is even cheeky.
I think the rise of emoji use in newer generations is due to them being non white and unable to read or write very well so they rely heavily on pictures instead
>>730840313You can skip it anyway, its just a fun little customization option
>>730840313You can skip them but I like them. They're one of the best ways to spend steam points
>>730840451>so they rely heavily on pictures instead
>>730840280but I HAVE to let people know that I hate them for their post and wish they'd die.
>>730840607Here's one!
>>730834261god they really suck dont they
>>730840270>Steam forums are scheduled for deletionSource/QRD? Why did they just update the emotes if the entire forum feature is going to be deleted?
>>730834443She... She looks like me.. She's built like me... I... thank you
>>730836885you can sell your account for about 25 cents :) congrats
Clown farmers BTFONow you can be somewhat more confident that extremely awful review/forum post was done with complete sincerity instead of ragebait, and get depressed that someone genuinely holds that opinion.
>>730834261>folks in the community>folksPretty clear valve hired a tranny and it's all down hill.
>>730840935>they hired a trannythis has been known since the release of the steam machine
>>730840516>>730840470I kind of get it i guess. But it should be something that you can freely customize. Im not sure if its something you can mess with on your own without points. But id see more people wanting to treat like their computer and have their family or pet as background stuff than all the rewards stuff.
>>730839853>Proof?common sense requires no citation
>>730841124>But it should be something that you can freely customizeI believe you can desu, I don't think its very hard to just customize your intro video with whatever you want. These are just official ones you can buy with the steamfunbux,
>>730834261Bad behavior should not have a reward system.Steam is removing the reward. If you wish to persist in bad behavior, you still can. You just won't be rewarded for it anymore.Cry harder. You got out-trolled.
▶ Costs 500 instead of 300 (minimum) and the points don't even tranfer to the recipient, just disappear.▶ People who make a kick ass mod, guide, review etc. are no longer rewarded for their hard work because nothing transfers.Fat jew Gaben and his shitty yacht.
>>730841756who would've guessed the fatso that takes ozempic to lose weight and sits on his massive yacht would be... such a greedy jew?!
>>730838970Tell me, did you use the points? I only understand someone defending this because they earned a lot of points by farming troll answers or ignoring everythingThe system wasn't well designed because it was exploited in this way. It's unfortunate that it had to be removed, I know, but it was for the good and health of the forumsI've spent more than 300 hours on Helldivers 2, and its forums are an absolute shithstorm, page after page
>>730842570yeah i used the points... why do you think everyone has the same experience of you? i gave awards to reviews/screenshots/mods i liked, i bought showcases, borders, profiles, etc. i've spent most of the point i ever had and didn't hoard them to a million like retards. i don't agree with this change and frankly i don't see why they couldn't just remove point gifting from the discussions and nowhere else. wait i know why, because valve are kike cocksuckers and this has nothing to do with trolling and everything to do with forcing users to spend more money to get points, rather than being gifted points. the toxic positivity shit of the new awards is just a larp.
>>730839535An award is still a reward. People will do it for the pixels. Just look at this website.
WOWEE I HECKIN LOVE EMOJIS HAHHAHA LOLOLOLL I LOVE THEM I LOVE THEM GOVE ME CLOWN AWARD HAHA I LIKE THE FUNI THING THAT MAKE MY BRAIN GO BINGBING WAHOO IM AN AUTISTIC FAGGOT LOLOLOLOL
>>730840143Forum customers used reaction gifs in the replies which cluttered threads with useless posts. Reaction emojis attached to a post were designed to clear threads of those clutter replies.
>>730843058I like using reacts because I can tell people they are faggots without disrupting the flow of a topic.
>>730834261>their all sterile>no clown replacementrage baiting sisters? it is over
>>730841756>rewarded for their hard workNigga what? Points are borderline useless
>>730834261Why are we still using steam? It's time we move to a better platform!!!
>>730834261Gross, where are half of the good rewards like Jester?
>>730839945i agreethat absolutely guffawing ass nigga will be jester 2.0
>>730834330Laughing emoji is more offensive than clown
>>730841721People will just award the laughing emoji
>>730836489>Retarded masses spend money on retarded shit
>>730839790>The most handicapped shit kept on getting posted and spammed over and over again in order to farm jester awards and points.>Now they have no incentive to do so anymore.and now the steam forums can be just like 4chan where nobody ever posts bait because there's no profit incentive to do so, right?
The ironic thing is "is it woke" isn't even bait. It's a legit question because reddit-tier devs (Veilguard) would go out of their way to hide any discussion about it's woke content to trick people into buying the game, and the question itself is valid.It's a good litmus test to see if they ban the threads, effectively telling on themselves.
>>730845290It's just concern trolling, doubly so when it's asked for things like fucking puzzle or mecha games.
>>730844609no, clown emoji has been the default mockmaxxing emoji for a while
>>730839285I can confirm this is true.
>>730845290the biggest joke is retarded rightoid "anti-woke" homosexuals thinking they are somehow better than grifting tranny leftoids. if you're anything but a centrist in america, you're actually brain damaged
>>730834330Only clowns got the jester
