View submission: Wrapping the Golden Upvote Pilot + New(ish) and Improved Awards
Yep, that is one of our primary concerns. We don't want people thinking being awarded means a post or comment contains credible info, and we *especially* don't want people getting paid for posts or comments that contain misinformation or harmful advice or otherwise break our rules.

We really need the ability to turn them off completely or hide their display to users on an ad hoc basis without removing the content.
