Because they encourage the low effort reviews/discussions/artwork, etc. People are rewarded for posting inflammatory remarks, stale jokes and clamoring for attention. It's the worst kind of community interaction to foster. Every site with similar systems inevitably turns into a dumpster.
But why would people be getting awards for low effort content in the first place? Especially if the user can instead spend the points for their own gain? :nonplussed_creep:

Hi. user from germany here. I tried clicking tru my steam games suggestions discovery stuff to get my daily steam card. we have many games banned here and when one of those comes up on my discovery list, it just sends me to your steam "UPS, SORRY!" page and then I cant skip that specific game and also when I start a new list it starts again at the banned game! Please fix it, else many gamers will not able to get those cards. :winter2019neutralgingerbread:
