Jester != Clown
Valve should change the picture of Jester forum award to real "jester", not "clown".

Many people see 'clown" picture as offensive while they don't mind getting an award with a picture of jester.

They should just delete this Feature so you dont get any Points or what ever for it.

Or, better yet, make it a thumbs up. Lots of the awards have a pic of something that doesn't really make sense in context. "Clever" is a dinosaur, and "hot take" is a chicken head.

For clever award, it probably references raptors which are intelligent and social dinosaur species.

As for OP I'm not partial to the Clown award, an actual Jester would be better tbh, but hey, I'll certainly take the points associated with the award!

I do see clown as offensive in certain contexts. Jester would just be like cool I like that . Bleh idk... or just straight up remove the clown and replace it with a new and different one that cannot be seen as 'offensive', though what that might be idk either

People will still call the jester an image of a clown.

Either way it will be offensive. It's kind of the point, if not the clown/jester some other trophy will be used. In a way the trophies are basically upvote/downvotes.
