Firstly, they de-valued upvotes and the equality that every user's opinion had before they were introduced.
And secondly, they were so abundant that they didn't mean anything anyway.

I agree. I've always thought that any kind of award (Reddit gold and the others) are Rich Man™ upvotes.

And then the number of kinds of awards got more and more and some got spammed into everyone's accounts (as an incentive to switch to the redesign, I guess?) and I just started ignoring them. Never had one, never bought one, never really went out of my way to get free ones either.
