What is that even supposed to imply? Is it supposed to mean “You’re doing something right, if they try to assassinate you”? Well, have they heard about a certainly popular assassination target of the 20th century, Mustache Man? On the other hand, just because someone doesn’t actively try to kill you, doesn’t mean you’re not important. Look at Merkel, for example. Once, a pretty controversial person to have become chancellor and quite important, too.
Yeah. The clown award (and similar “derogatory” awards) giving the receiver Steam points is the worst thing that happened to the quality of posts/comments on the Steam forums. The first two comment pages on patchnotes of games like Helldivers 2 are almost exclusively pointfarmers doing their best to reap clown awards.
