Steam Award - Find the awarded comment

[Godrik Underscore]

How do I see which comment/ reply was awarded a Steam Award?

You'll get an email about it that links you to it. If you did not opt out...

https://store.steampowered.com/account/emailoptout

They are sent out about daily. At about 12pm Pacific Time.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2340983024

Your points summary page will show it. It will also link you to what was awarded. This is assuming whatever you were awarded for UGC wise was not deleted.

This is incorrect. There is no link anywhere that will link back to the original awarded comment.

Hotsauce is correct, and you are incorrect.
You have to wait the 14 days for the points to be awarded, and then in your points history you can see all of the points that you have been awarded, and each award will have a link to the comment/review/screenshot, whatever.
Example- I can click on the highlighted link, and it will take me to the exact comment I was awarded for.

You see the "Received 2 Awards" that is underlined under "Comment?" That is the link.

Thank you all for the input and help.

Turns out one of the links in the email is indeed a link to the comment. I was incorrect on this.

However, there is no way to see them from the profile (confirmed via Steam Support).

EDIT: I was wrong again. So was Steam Support. The comment itself is indeed viewable from the profile.

Sorry to reply to an old thread but I just got an email about an award for a comment but the link didn't go direct to the comment that got the award. How would you find that?

If it didn't go to the content, it was deleted.

The email doesn't seem to reflect every award though. For example I might get an email saying "congratulations you've received 6 community awards!" and it will have 1 links to comments. A week later it'll say I've received 5 awards with links for 2 of them. I've also gotten those emails with no link to a comment. In fact even though I often get emails indicating 5-10 awards I don't think they've ever linked more than 1 or 2 of the comments.

It would be nice if there were a link somewhere on the points shop to show the history of given & received awards, but I'm not losing sleep over it since the whole points thing seems kind of, um, pointless.

The link to the points summary is in my first reply from 2021.

Well I stand happily corrected, I totally missed that. Cool!

Glad to see this thread is still helping people :)

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
