View submission: We heard you… awards are back!
So you're sorry, but you still aren't giving everyone the coins they had back.
Also no still no free coins anymore? And it's not really clear, can subreddits make custom awards again or not?
I guess it's an improvement, and props for apologizing. But I think this is still a downgrade from the original system in a lot of ways, other than reducing clutter.

I paid $500+ cash for coins for an enduring ad-free experience. Almost immediately they cancelled the program and confiscated my coins, no refunds.
If this company ever goes out of business, drinks are on me all around the table.

People who lost a coins balance in this transition do have access to a number of exclusive awards to give for free, though we recognize this is not the same as a coins balance.
This iteration of the feature is still in very early days. We’ve noted that some mod teams are interested in custom awards in certain subreddits, but it is too early to say whether these or other features will become available.
