View submission: Wrapping the Golden Upvote Pilot + New(ish) and Improved Awards

So essentially, it's going back to the way it used to be, and it was pointless to take awards away in the first place.

Not the way it used to be

Before, awarding Gold (or other specific metal awards) granted the awardee a set amount of Premium membership.

That was retired last year. Awards / Gold stopped having anything to do with Premium / the r/Lounge, and this new and improved system maintains that separation.
