Steam has … basically, emojis that you can give people, as… basically ‘awards’.
There’s a whole system of ‘points’ that you get when you buy a game or get an in game achievememt, you can spend those points on various flair for your steam profile…
Or, give silly awards to people.
So… I would guess that ‘clown farming’ would be intentionally trying to get as many clown-moji awards as possible.
I mean… its not the worst way of essentially reviewing users.
Its also not the best, lol.
I… don’t actually know that there is like… when you view another user’s profile, I don’t think it like, forces you to display your cumulative given ‘award’ counts, or is made such that anyone can always see them.
I think… a user can choose to emphasize certain awards by picking one of… basically, their kind of ‘display cabinets’ on their profile, and then showcasing it in that.
… Its kind of … incredibly convoluted, how everything that does, or can go into a steam profile page… how that actually works.

Why do they do this?
… To be the funniest clown, I suppose.
Sounds like a great way to run a reliable user review system
