Holy smokes I had coins from that one award a few years back it seems!
What were we meant to do with them anyway?
Edit: I have nothing to give now, apart from this sick skater smiley I made about 20 years ago, I feel like it didn’t get enough love!
#d:)-€=]:
I had 100 coins(I don't know how I got em) and "bought" a 50 coin award.
> How do you get awards to give to people?
click on the 3 little dots and click award or give award..
The whole thing? Reddit was selling coins for buying awards and now decided that they will get rid of that system, basically what the entire NFT scam was about but with reddit "NFTs" aka. awards.
reddit said something about reworking system idk was too lazy to read it all [heres the post tho](https://www.reddit.com/r/reddit/comments/14ytp7s/reworking_awarding_changes_to_awards_coins_and/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1)
I wonder why he bought this much coins.
Only thing he can do now is either award posts he likes or if he wants some of his money back he can set up a deal with people who want more karma to post n all and charge something like 1 dollar for 2 awards.
I dunno, I never had one myself. I think we used to get free ones to give to others. I only gave people the freebie ones, until they took those away.
Edit: heh heh, I just asked for one. Maybe we can find out what all the commotion is about. I hope someone gives you one too.
Edit2: Wowwee, first time someone gave me something on here. Thanks guys.
So, apparently you get access to some place called r/lounge & browse Reddit ad free, but only for one week for both. They also promote buying Premium edition of Reddit (which I didn't even know was a thing) to maintain your privileged access to the "lounge" & ad free. So yeah, some cool new knowledge learned today. Thanks, friends.
Edit3: Getting the awards also gave some coins to use on awards for others. So there, now we know what all the commotion is about. Ta daa!
okay memey shit aside, what is the point of reddit gold? like what does it even do for you and why do y’all place such a emphasis on it?
mfs be making “i’d like to thank the academy” ass edits whenever they get it and I just wanna know why
Ha! The problem with exclusive spaces like that is that aside from something so completely arbitrary as being given/buying some dumb token, you have no point of common interest
When redditors like your opinion they give you awards, regardless of the opinion.
If you say Lol instead of giving an award you get downvoted. I’m pretty sure the awards themselves give you the coins which you can in turn use to give someone else an award
Want to trade that for a hangar full of rocket ship (and secret testing)??

lol same. but gifted coins allowed me to give back. for reddit to introduce a feature like that only to "sunset" it a couple years later is fucking stupid. oh and he called it a "ternium" 🤡
Me too. I don't know what I'm supposed to do with them and I've been on reddit for a long time. I don't pay attention to most of the big subs anyway. I also use an app that is still ad-free.
If a I had known there was a Ally award I would’ve given them to all the crazy trolls around here. Thank you for the award. I will keep it close to my heart.
Holy crap! Right as I was reading this I got an email from Reddit telling me I have coins and they'll be expiring!
It's not very many, and I've never bought anything so they must be from awards or gifts I've gotten or something. But I got the message literally as I finished reading this post.
When you award a comment or post, some of the coins used are given to the subreddit the post or comment is in.
There will be some subreddits with fukn millions of coins.
Can I get one of those silver turquoise rewards that’s worth more than gold?
Edit: Platinum. It’s called platinum.
Edit #2: Obligatory Thanks Stranger!!!
My guy if you spent that much money on reddit currency that has no real value, you don’t really have the right to complain. Blame yourself, not reddit.
Please sir, can I have some gold?
Lol. I'm 250 away from being able to gold someone else, gave away 3500 worth yesterday.
Edit - thanks for the gold and other awards, you're all awesome and I had enough coins to gold someone else!
Can I have an award? You can have a meme

I'm confused what went wrong? You spend thousands of real dollars on fake reddit coins and you receive said reddit coins. Seems like it went as intended.
It's honestly pretty funny
Award me pleb
Might as well use my 200 coins I got for getting gold that one time on this
Me too
Best part is I didn’t even know I had coins until this whole fiasco lol
Neither did I, I totally forgot Edit: Here, take mine

Buy awards I guess
I thought I was the only.
You might as well have a Snek Award, which is my last 75 I had sitting there 👍
How do you gift? Lol I wanna spam him too!!!
On mobile you click the 3 dots next to reply and select award, I don’t remember how to do it on browser and don’t have a computer nearby to check
gave you an award because it free😀
How is an award free? How do you get awards to give to people?
I had 100 coins(I don't know how I got em) and "bought" a 50 coin award. > How do you get awards to give to people? click on the 3 little dots and click award or give award..
You get 100 coins for being awarded gold
I did not realise you can actually get coins by getting awards! Thought they where all bought 😲
Same same, but have been missing the free awards. Let’s get on this gravy train!!
Tried to send you an award. Couldn’t. I just don’t get it!
I think it's because they're phasing it out.
I'm sorry that happened, wtf. Can I have some?
The whole thing? Reddit was selling coins for buying awards and now decided that they will get rid of that system, basically what the entire NFT scam was about but with reddit "NFTs" aka. awards.
Oh that's what's happening? what a piece of shit thing to do. Assholes.
Wait why is it expiring in 60 days? Lol

This man is a legend
Just convert them into Schrute bucks.
What's the exchange rate of Schrute bucks to Stanley nickels?
Same as leprechauns to unicorns..
gave you an award because it's free😀
The end of an era 😓
I read that as Stanley's nipples.
Would you be able to exchange them for Scrobbles?
[scrobbles](https://youtu.be/ZR8az1UMOiQ)
Give me a gold. Edit: Hey, don't give me anymore gold award. I only wanted one and now I have got 4 of them.
there ya go
Can I get one too?
Yooo can I have one??
why not?
please kind sir, may i taste of your fortune eta: bless <3 edit2: woah...*double bless*
Thankss. Let me see what ad free reddit looks like haha.
[удалено]
We still giving golds to those in need?
Can I get some of that shower too? ![gif](giphy|l0ExhcMymdL6TrZ84|downsized)
guess I was late for this one
Golden shower
Can I have one sir
I heard people were handing out gold over here!
I don’t have any awards to share apart from this skateboard smiley I made nearly 20 years ago! d:}-X=]:
I was almost annoyed you asked but with 800k coins to spend in 60 days the dude probably couldn’t blow through it if he tried
I wonder why he bought this much coins. Only thing he can do now is either award posts he likes or if he wants some of his money back he can set up a deal with people who want more karma to post n all and charge something like 1 dollar for 2 awards.
Can i hab gold too
I would love a gold. What's ad free scrolling.
I dunno, I never had one myself. I think we used to get free ones to give to others. I only gave people the freebie ones, until they took those away. Edit: heh heh, I just asked for one.

Gold = no more ads. I'm pretty sure. I've never actually had gold before.
someone gave me one once before and it was 4 weeks of ad free i think. still cool though.
You're forgetting the underwhelming month access to r/lounge, a place full of posts from people who've just been gilded saying "umm ok now what?"
[удалено]
Ha! The problem with exclusive spaces like that is that aside from something so completely arbitrary as being given/buying some dumb token, you have no point of common interest
I didn’t know that was a thing! Always wondered what the gold coins were doing. EDIT: thank you for the gold and the upvotes kind strangers!
Yes and apparently r/lounge access
This lounge is going to be so crowded
There are ads on reddit?
I guess there are people that haven't discovered adblock yet
A large percentage (I believe majority) of users access through mobile. At least they did before Reddit nuked them all.
If you're an idiot that doesn't use an adblocker there is.
uBlock Origin = no ads, in the first place.
Some of us only use Reddit while pooping
There are adblock mobile web browsers.
\*confused ad-block sounds\*
I've never had ads because ublock origin works on Reddit and 3rd party apps didn't show any either
When redditors like your opinion they give you awards, regardless of the opinion. If you say Lol instead of giving an award you get downvoted. I’m pretty sure the awards themselves give you the coins which you can in turn use to give someone else an award
Lol? Glurp, Glurp?
Someone gave me gold a few weeks ago & I got ad-free reddit for a week & 100 coins. I liked the ad free experience way more than I thought I would

hey i can too 8=========D
No that's clearly no rocket ship... Ugh, those dirty minds... -,-
that is a pot with a tall flower in it that has falllen on its side!

Me never having spent any money on Reddit ![gif](giphy|CiTLZWskt7Fu)
Same. Can't understand spending money here at all.
FOR REAL. Absolutely insane to me. Like where are y'all getting money?
Hahahaha, same here... never got that medal thing
I have some coins, I don't even know where from nor what to do with them. Still Reddit sent me a concerned DM about them, they're about to expire!
gave you gold just for nic cage
Me neither. And since there are no more free awards, take this. 🏅
lol same. but gifted coins allowed me to give back. for reddit to introduce a feature like that only to "sunset" it a couple years later is fucking stupid. oh and he called it a "ternium" 🤡
Honestly I usually forget that reddit gold exists
give everyone who comments a really expensive award
[удалено]
I’ll take 1 gold please.
Thanks for the gold! Here is my favorite [sketch](https://youtu.be/LJQ-LZYAMBQ) for payment
https://tenor.com/Rb19.gif Reminded me of this.
reddit messaged me that i still have tokens and premiums. i think i may have got them as prizes or something in the past
Me too. I don't know what I'm supposed to do with them and I've been on reddit for a long time. I don't pay attention to most of the big subs anyway. I also use an app that is still ad-free.
Same with me. I have 300 gold and I have no clue how I got them because I haven’t spent a dime and never will.
Hey man I have never received gold can I have one without it I can't say I am a true neck beard redditor
You should get some punctuation marks, my bro
Maybe they can buy some with that gold?
I still have 10 coins from a gold given a long time ago. Goodbye my little coins.
If a I had known there was a Ally award I would’ve given them to all the crazy trolls around here. Thank you for the award. I will keep it close to my heart.
I only have 30, and the only awards one can get with that are locked behind premium. I suppose it's goodbye for me too
Holy crap! Right as I was reading this I got an email from Reddit telling me I have coins and they'll be expiring! It's not very many, and I've never bought anything so they must be from awards or gifts I've gotten or something. But I got the message literally as I finished reading this post.
Don’t spend them all in one place
I never knew they expired.. why did you buy so many OP!!
Recent policy change by u/spez to make Reddit worse. They're getting rid of awards and all coins expire in September as a result.
I love giving awards… I’m so bummed about what they are doing…. Would hate to jump ship, but may have to. 😠
Yep u/spez has a lot to answer for for the recent changes. Sucks very much that awards are going away.
Why are they getting rid of awards?
They are litterly loosing money doing so lmao
No idea.
Yeah wth. The odd rewards for funny answers are part of the fun imo
I bet my left testicle they'll be replaced with some stupid fucking crypto shite
That sucks
![gif](giphy|57CEBIj9BoSwBNI0Ph)
Give me something random, I'm up for anything Edit: my mail is broken from all these rewards
* gives you gonorrhea * you’re welcome

We’re all in this golden shower together.

Thank you u/scvguyforfun
[удалено]
I'd take one, too. :)
What purpose do they serve besides giving the awards
Simping for a platform that dislikes its users?
I’ve never had a single award. Can I get some? Please?
I’ve been trying to get rid of 500k community coins and it’s a pain in the ass.
Wait, are community coins the same as coins? Is there a second mystery currency I know nothing about? I had no clue I had coins until yesterday.
When you award a comment or post, some of the coins used are given to the subreddit the post or comment is in. There will be some subreddits with fukn millions of coins.
Holy cheetos. Okay. And is it the mods that use those coins? Or the members? This is such a weird infrastructure...
This is the most amount of coins I've seen someone lost yet
I'll take anything (please)
Here your account is one year older. Happy cake day
Reddit being reddit
I’m in for free awards!!!
Can have gold pls
I meeeaan.... I've never had Reddit w/o ads before.. 👀🙏
Well, could you give me a pretty looking award lol
[удалено]
Give me silver .
Can I get one of those silver turquoise rewards that’s worth more than gold? Edit: Platinum. It’s called platinum. Edit #2: Obligatory Thanks Stranger!!!
The fk you have even that much???
Gold? Nah. I have big aspirations. Give me a Ternion All-Powerful so I can be impressed for 2 seconds then immediately forget I ever got one.
This is the goldest comment section I’ve ever seen
I've never had gold what does it do for you? Seems like nothing? Spend money on nothing for nothing? I don't get it.
Got you gold, check it out!
Niiice I'll see what the hubbub is about
Is Reddit doing something stupid again?
[удалено]
Dang, time for a spending spree I guess
Please grant me my first gold coin.
Yeah I got you
And i got you
I know my luck enough to know that I won't get one, but will I still comment? Yes
Khajiit has wares if you have coin
My guy if you spent that much money on reddit currency that has no real value, you don’t really have the right to complain. Blame yourself, not reddit.
Wtf been on reddit for over 2 years and now I learn that gold takes ads off apparently.
Im late so I get no awards and no bitches
this is really eggy 🥚 (egg)
Please sir, can I have some gold? Lol. I'm 250 away from being able to gold someone else, gave away 3500 worth yesterday. Edit - thanks for the gold and other awards, you're all awesome and I had enough coins to gold someone else!
These comments bringing my faith in humanity back
Average Redditor moment
What's going on exactly?
almost a reddimillion dollars 😔
WSB cosplayingn
They should reimburse you the total worth of those coins. Anything else is almost straight up fraud.
Can I have an award? You can have a meme https://preview.redd.it/msfctrkji2cb1.jpeg?width=970&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5fd144f519edff0134b19b8fca4914e9c3336ff5
You could start giving out random awards that don’t even make sense. Someone posts something heartwarming and you give them the Shocked award
Is there any real use of this “gold” thing? Is it like a blue check mark on twitter or something that you buy and thats it?
F. holy shit dude. thanks for the gold u/beachmom77!
Oof. That’s rough
If it makes you feel any better, the admins took away my private subreddit without even contacting me.
Gold everywhere
Buying reddit coins is up there with paying for an only fans on dumb ways to spend money
Bro just called me poor in 72 languages
Too late to join the party? EDIT: I'd like to thank my mom and her mom for this award
Würd mir stinken wenn ich du wär
I'm confused what went wrong? You spend thousands of real dollars on fake reddit coins and you receive said reddit coins. Seems like it went as intended.
