I have no idea why people would pay real money to give someone a pretend award. Defies belief.

I did it once because it was the only way I could think of to show some genuine gratitude to a guy who responded to and was able to help get me something after I asked about it from a post he had made like 5 years prior. $3 isn’t much, but I think I’m the minority there when it comes to gilding mentality. That said, the staggering amount of awards used on the front page daily defies belief.
