MODERATORS
Some people are obviously farming clown awards on the Steam Community forums, probably to distract themselves from their pitifully meaningless existence.
As I've said before, Steam needs stronger moderation. But barring people who don't own the game from the conversation is not the solution. Sometimes you have legitimate questions about a game before you buy. Or maybe you own it on another platform.
And they take those clown awards and throw them onto any review that praises said game that they never bought or played. The Steam Community as a whole is...astoundingly stupid.
