This is a great hack, however there are two phrases missing with the install that you may want to put in there.

added_award
removed_award

They go under the category front-end redirect messages.

There is no need for phrases right now. I most-probably will implement them in next version.

But let me see if I got this right.

Basically people can award someone for their post.

Example someone post a question and someone replies. They can reward the person that replied with an award. If so I will install this and change the gif to accepted answer.

Only admins see the 'add' or 'remove' award link right now. If a regular member finds out the link, he will get an error and wont be able to use it. If you'd like to let super mods also use the awards or all moderators, I can give you change if you want.

Any possible way this could be modified for use as a post/voting hack?

If the rose could end up being a counter, if every member had the option to increase (vote) the counter or decrease (un-vote) the counter, this could be used in my forums as I have a weekly caption contest. If each member could vote on a post they like then, by the end of the week you could see who had the highest number of votes for that thread.

This is a great hack but might spawn another one........

Before I added the phrases in my install, everytime I added an award I would get the "phrase added_award not found" error when it redirected back to the post.

No clue. I don't use any phrases. But I'll look into this.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
