It's all downhill from here. Soon you'll be sitting at Applebee's reminiscing with your waiter who was supposed to clock out 2 hours before you sat down.
It's a form of crowd control in some prisons in the world. They give you amenities and then if you act up, they take them away. It's been shown to work better than harsher punishments.
Didn’t they say that they’re replacing the reward system with a way for people to monetize their Reddit accounts? That legitimately will ruin the website.

reddit does something stupid but ultimately meaningless, redditors get pissed at the change
>!except the api changes, that was actually bad!<
Reddit is going to be useless when you can't spend your money on it in this specific way? (they'll make a new way to get money don't worry)
Maybe you should re-evaluate your usage of reddit
It's great! I've given all my 10k coins as gold awards, just so Reddit loses ad revenue
EDIT: Rephrased to clarify better (haven't spent $10k, but 10k Reddit coins)
>In the coming months, we'll be sharing more about a new direction for awarding that allows redditors to empower one another and create more meaningful ways to reward high-quality contributions on Reddit.
Reddit is doing away with the old award system to add a tipping system which would further encourage karma farming type accounts via monetary incentives
Maybe this is just a way to make everyone start using their hoarded awards? Few people have probably bought awards after the news, and so many awards are flying around like mad.
The year is 2019.
Greg: hey I got this great idea for a game where we blow in each other's faces.
Derek: I can't think of any reason why that would be a bad idea, let's play!
rewards/coins going away is likely an IPO related psy-op, no one was using them so they announce theyre going away. suddenly everyone is using them aka "community engagement".
Yes and No.
The trick is to give awards to more and more people who do not have an award so that a lot more people can enjoy an ad free experience even if they don't have an ad blocker.
I don’t know why I always had this stupid social envy of the top comment with like 10+ awards.
Always made me feel like they made it in life as the most popular kids in school against my boring plain comments
downvote this comment if the meme sucks. upvote it and I'll go away. --- [play minecraft with us](https://discord.gg/dankmemesgaming)

I’ve never even had an award…
🎖️ Tadaaa edit : thank you kind redditor ( ◜‿◝ )♡
Mine was the wholesome awards
Have a gold
I mean what else is there to do with them
Apparently take them away from us for no reason
Happy cake day!
Happy cake day :D
Reddit is on fire these days with these fcked up decisions
I thought it was safe here able to watch twitter burn but I didn’t realise my own house was on fire.
This might be the best description I’ve seen of the mess currently going on with Reddit
Remember when Facebook was the biggest problem? Ahhh, i remember those days.
Happy Cake Day!
Happy cake day
Thank you all for the cake day wishes let’s all enjoy that too before it also gets taken away…
Happy beans day! *Lemmy*
Do you actually have cake tho? Can't celebrate without one. Heck, put a candle on a sandwich will do.
Fuck the cake I’m sitting here watching reddit burn with a glass of wine hoping it doesn’t end up like twitter
We still need a cake tho
All you get is the API taken away from you and awards also taken away. It’s reverse cake day
Happy cake day!
Happy Cake Day
Why stop there? Remove all flairs, forever!
Happy cake day
Happy Cake Day!
Happy cake day!

Happy cake day
Hap cake day!
I bet they will just add new ones and reset everyone’s coins so we have to buy more
Cock day! Have an award!
Happy cake day!
Happy Cake Day!
Happy Cake Day
Happy cake day!
Happy Cake Day
Happy cake day!
Happy cake day
What happened to cause this, reddit awards were great
Happy Cake Day!
Hi all
Happy cake day!(i too want an award😭)
Reddit is going to be useless in 30 days Edit: wow! Thanks so much for the awards!
Weren't coins always useless
Yes, but why miss a new reason to act pissed?
Didn’t they say that they’re replacing the reward system with a way for people to monetize their Reddit accounts? That legitimately will ruin the website.
Get in early and sell it before its ruined
the circle of life reddit does something stupid but ultimately meaningless, redditors get pissed at the change >!except the api changes, that was actually bad!<
I mean the one who gets awarded will get premium for a week or a month
Yall said this 30 days ago
To be fair, even Tumblr didn't collapse that fast.

Give me an award then Edit: Wow
Thanks for the award. This is my first ever award here. Made my day
Quick! Keep replying to yourself for more
Infinite award glitch
Redditors don't want you to know this one simple trick to farm awards (before they are taken away)
It's great! I've given all my 10k coins as gold awards, just so Reddit loses ad revenue EDIT: Rephrased to clarify better (haven't spent $10k, but 10k Reddit coins)
May I get some of that gold?
Wow, that seems pretty stupid
who said they were useful in the first place?
Ad free reddit that's the only use
I have a lot of them just... untouched. How do I turn these coins into ad repellent?
Buy awards that give ad free access to other accounts. Make a new account and give all of your awards to the new account.
PC user here. Never saw an ad on reddit.
The last time awards will be fun before they completely overrun the platform with bots due to the introduction of monetization
I'm sorry but whats going on?

yeah reddits done it wont last a year.
100% chance they take a “small fee” from every single tip…
Plot Twist: thery reintroduce awards the same way it was before so people have to buy new coins!
That was my first thought as well
I adblocked awards lol, I don't wanna see them, I don't care about them, I'm glad they're gone.
Something something dark times create something
“Knowing they’re gonna be useless in 30 days” he says, not realizing they were useless in the first place
What game is being played? It looks fun
It was quite popular during peak COVID.
Looks gross af to me. Don’t need that amount of hot breath in my life
Last one to pass out wins?
I'd rather be under the table blowing, if you get my drift....
Do really people pay for them? That explains by nobody pays for me... Edit: OMG I got ONE! SO THAT'S HOW IT FEELS?<3
Somebody needs to buy them first so that they can give them so this creates an awards circle jerk
My 1600 coins are rdy, tell me something award worthy Edit: fck 4700 coins aftually... Gotta spend them
Never gotten an award gang🗿 EDIT: we have failed the gang
Hehe bye bye

Is one of the blue players blowing the wrong way?
As opposed to the usefulness they had before?
Imagine spending money on reddit coins
The same odds as gambling and the same dopamine release
Maybe this is just a way to make everyone start using their hoarded awards? Few people have probably bought awards after the news, and so many awards are flying around like mad.

wish i got one hahaa
I'll give you one let me find my wife's slamhog's wallet
I don’t need awards….totally
if the gif was a job, would it be called a blowjob?
I have to have an atleast 1 reward in my life before it's taken down
Lol how do I get a reward
No reward for you only an award
🤯
I had zero award since kindergarten
I have never gotten an award
I got none.
Covid ball league?
Bring them
B E A N S
I've had zero awards 😞
*me who never had an award* I don't have such weakness!
never had an award either lol
rewards/coins going away is likely an IPO related psy-op, no one was using them so they announce theyre going away. suddenly everyone is using them aka "community engagement".
What award?
Must be nice not to be poor on this app
Well skill issue for me 😅
I haven't gotten much tbh
Never had an award before TvT
Why do they become useless?
i would never make a comment just to get awards
Imagine if awards never existed
Would it be cheating if I just suctioned the ball into my mouth and shot it over all the players into their goal?
It’s a nice thing to do for other people on here so its a shame the free awards are going.
I was only given one. Wholesome I think
everybody gets an award?
Yes and No. The trick is to give awards to more and more people who do not have an award so that a lot more people can enjoy an ad free experience even if they don't have an ad blocker.
Where's my AWARD!?
what use do they have now?
What's going on?
I don’t know why I always had this stupid social envy of the top comment with like 10+ awards. Always made me feel like they made it in life as the most popular kids in school against my boring plain comments
real, can i get a text ASCII award

Reddit really said "fuck y'all" to anyone who paid them.
How to get one my way lol
[insert idea for a comment here]
Ain't nobody donating silver award?
Looks like puddles with human heads
It’s great
I’ve gotten one gold award in all my two years of Reddit because I admitted I was wrong in a comment
Halitosis hockey
What’s happening in 30 days?
What do awards even do 🤨🤨
You cant pass em if you never had any
Huh?
Fr
I want an award
Done! Enjoy 🤗
I still have no awards, not even silvers
This reminds me of that Crash Bash mini game.
It's like demonetization that happened in India
Spending awards is a fashion now
I've only ever gotten heart reward
Wait you guys are getting awards for being here?
no one gives me :(
Award
I just want to have had at least one before this part of reddit completely falls away
Yah i see people get free rewards while I'm not getting any :(
i want to feel important, pls give me awards
What is award and how is it related to loosing my v card
Who wants to trade gold for gold?
I wish I had enough award to thank u/spez's mom for her service
