There's a XenForo feature, not currently present but used by other forums, that lets you see the stickers that YOU gave to other users. This always had more upsides than downsides, especially in the current state of the Kiwi Farms. There's only one way that it can be abused, by retracting positive stickers that you gave to users. That abuse method would mean nothing after the constant efforts to stop any kind of point wankery, as of now, it would only mean that you're wasting your time and attention on shrinking both a list and a completely opaque number without any evidence to other people that you're doing this.
So what's the benefit?
There's always the chance of forgetting the location, facts, or keywords, of any interesting and important posts, then needing to revisit it without that knowledge. Yes, you should be making a habit of bookmarking things... but sometimes, you don't even know if that post needs be bookmarked, yet you've probably already made a habit of reacting to anything that would ever be interesting to your future self. Farmers have a right to use their past actions as a tool for keeping the knowledge they've learned.
Also, it lets them revisit all the points they found funny or awesome, and doesn't that make it a multiplier of the Kiwi Farms experience?
