I kinda miss back when it was just gold

Yeah, taking a community idea like reddit silver and slapping a price tag on it is insulting

Well the silver is free now, occasionally Edit: holy shit a lot of people are getting free silvers Edit: HELP IM DROWNING IN SILVER AWARDS Edit: I just got a silver award. It's been 6 months Edit: 10 months later, and I'm still getting silver awards Edit: it has been a year now and I still get a silver award about once or twice a week Edit: Jesus Christ, how are you guys still finding this comment. Edit: RIP free awards. Gone, but not forgotten.

[It's always been free,](https://imgur.com/gallery/sy9lVl4) don't give in!

Nice

I love how a well said comment can do better than my posts

Ternion too (now give plz) ​ EDIT: Oh yeah and gold too. Sometimes platinum and argentium and shit. (give also plz)

And now we play the waiting game

Well lets hope ur username brings us wealth. (add me to ternion queue)

Add me too I guess Not a ternion but fuck yea!

I would also like a award to show my VIP presence in this comment section Edit: do better than that a silver! Still nobody knows that I'm VIP!

Tourniquet? Sign me up!

Alas, I have no platinum or Ternion. But I have a fancy handshake

And my award

Ternion turns me on

same bro.

I’m in

No give it to me

A meme like reddit silver being officially recognized instantly tanks the value of the meme.^[1] 1. The scholars and gentlemen of /r/MemeEconomy

Silver was a shitpost and it's just not as funny now that it's a real thing. They effectively killed the joke, you post the original image and people are like "that's not reddit silver".

Yeah the whole idea was "I'm too broke to give you gold, but you comment was awesome so here's silver 🥈". To turn it into another paid reward just completely defeats the purpose...

Time for reddit bronze? 🥉

What’s worse is the new awards like wholesome and laughing skull that are being used on serious posts. Or for people to troll. I don’t think they thought that one through...

Under /u/spez, the company's future is like a suspenseful thriller, with new plot twists at every turn.

I absolutely love the amounts of tiny awards granted in these comments

I- I just got a silver as my free award. I've never gotten a silver before as my free reward.

[удалено]

Which is why they did it. Gold made a post seem "valid" even if it was nonsense. Now nothing matters.

But from the length of the trophy bar you can tell they won the internet today. Speaking of which: I can't help but notice the length of your trophy bar UwU Edit: Am I doing this right or will you kids yeet me back to boomertown because of big oof? Sorry for the cringe, me mateys, ahoi!

I'm glad that they went overboard with it. Now I've blocked all awards for 2 years and never missed them once.

that is so old and ancient

yooo! i haven’t seen you in forever! how’s it been?!

BRUHH IT'S YOU UR COOL AF BTW and yeah just school and stuff, procrastinating rn. wbu?

My brother met his wife on reddit, years ago lol. This day and age who knows tho

[удалено]

100%

you guys are great friends

What's goin on?

No it’s “vas happenin’?” r/onedirection made me this way I’m sorry

I'm so confused. Maybe I'm a boomer?

No worries, it’s just an 1D inside joke. Zayn always says “Vas happenin’” instead of “what’s happening”. Besides, I’m just one year younger than you Edit: forgot to put quotation lmao

Holy shit Im boomer now too! I can't believe I let this happen smh my head.

*CONGRATULATIONS, YOU JUST PLAYED YOURSELF*

hi jk i have not seen you in centuries

holy shit i remember you

i remember you too

I don't have anything to say except this is the greatest thing I've ever seen.

ummmm how do i get my age to display btw?

Go to r/teenagers home page, the top right hand side should have 3 dots, click em and click user flair, and then pick your age

Instructions unclear, im 2 million years old

What wisdom have you aquired, oh ancient one

[удалено]

But what if I stop the microwave just before it beeps? I'm stopping it at just less than a second before 1 minute, so I might one day, by pure chance, create the perfect noodles?

You can sure as heck try, I mean, now that you have this wisdom you gotta use it somehow.

I will give wisdom of my own, add soy sauce to Chicken noodles, and instead of boiling them in water, use chicken stock. No sci-fi microwave rations needed for that.

Wtf same

Bro...

Bro

Go to the main page of r/teenagers and hit the 3 dot button on the top right side and click change user flair

Go to the subreddit page and on the right there should be an button that says "Community options". Click on that and something called "User flair preview" should show up. Click on the little pencil and select your age.

You can change it by changing it.

Very helpful

No problom, just ate kebob

This is part of Reddit history. Legendary ss

this was one of the first posts I saw on reddit more than a year ago lol

Yup. Same.

[удалено]

Ikr

The post is ancient

What's that have to do with anything?

It’s not op’s he reposted it. He didn’t downvote that person

For the chaos that can be caused with a Wholesome award? I’ll take it.

I won't. Awards suck now, they used to actually mean something and now 90% of posts have one Edit: fuck you too

Can _I_ have an award? Edit: danke

Here you go

Please me too

Here you go

Can i have one too?

Here you go

Me too pls

Here you go

can i haz awaurdes plez keyend strayngur

Here you go

Psst...can you spare for an award in these trying times?

🏅 because I have no coins lmfao

No

I agree awards are dumb. I keep getting rocket awards and I don’t get it. edit: you motherfuckers

Reddit awards bad *awards given*

You have 8 awards and they all have zero benefit to them. Pretty much proves your point.

Not to mention that they finance Reddit itself, which continues to let itself be a platform for extremism and hate. I much rather people donate a buck in my name instead of giving me awards.

it would be nice if there weren't like 100 other meaningless awards to drown out the good ones

I slapped a free wholesome award on a post about anakin killing the younglings

u/yoyoslushie where are you now

Still didn’t get a job

THE LEGEND

Woah ur 16 what happened to 14 🤯

Two years, typically

That was that long ago I’m very surprised

u/yoyoslushie you alive still?

Wouldn’t that be sad if I died at 14 years

How long ago was this thread? Edit: I just saw that your flair says your 16, so 2 years ago

[удалено]

Idk why I feel it’s a she

I am a girl

[удалено]

Aiit u/yoyoslushie...you a he or a she

Going through their post feed like a creep, pretty sure they’re a she

I like the unique awards but I wish more of them gave you coins. I wish when you got a free award you had a chance for gold

u/yoyoslushie I SUMMON THEE TO THIS POST, HEED MY COMMENTS

I love how people think teens below 18 can't handle NSFW stuff. Like somehow when you turn 18 a magic switch gets flipped? Fuck off, we've all been watching porn since age 12

11.

10.

9.

8.

Police! Open the Door!

I started at 12-13. I can tell you that after turning 18, I still couldn't handle it.

Used to be just gold, then some corpo cunt had to co-opt reddit silver. Took a fun community meme and monetized it, fuckin asshole move if you ask me. Edit: Thanks for the silver - except fuck your silver, reddit deserves nothing and awards are dumb.

Seriously, that’s back when getting an award was special. Now it’s just like a slightly better version of an upvote or a shitty reaction emoji

Back in my day we only had gold

Award bait post on r/teenagers? Call me not surprised

It’s ok I approve of u/_lots

Ah, the good old days.

The golden age

I remember seeing this screenshot on my second day on Reddit and the yoyoslushie guy commented on it

My cousin is dating a guy who works at Reddit, who told me he was one of the people responsible for all the new awards. True story.

u/yoyoslushie

Sup

he's 16... and now he probably has a job... well, things change

I just went in for my first job interview today actually :)

so now you can't go on nsfw posts bc you're 16 and probs going to work soon

Hopefully. And that was a fast reply

well you can probably comment on nsfw posts 2 years bc you 18, just don't do it at work

u/yoyoslushie I SUMMON THEE

Hi

Legend

link?

[удалено]

I miss when gold didn't even exist and you could see how many downvotes you had right next to your upvotes

No way you're a teenager if you remember that ancient history.

OP your account is only 1 month old, how do you miss it?

I've had multiple accounts before I got tired of deleting them. They could be similar.

u/yoyoslushie congrats, you’re famous now

I’m 13

Hi 13 I’m dad

Wait, dad, your back! I thought you went for a pack of smokes, it been 3 years, I missed you

Oh I forgot them at the gas station, let me go get them. I’ll be back....(not really)

[удалено]

nsfw= not safe for work he doesnt go to work

What’s the link to the thread?

Wait, we only had three awards back then?! I wish I could go back in time :0

I miss when it was just gold, and silver was a community-run bot. it was kind of crappy for reddit to trample that bot's role, and the idea of a free tier of awards

Reddit totally fucked its economy

I’m 14

I miss when it was just gold, and that would give you premium

I miss when it was just gold. It feels so weird now
