View submission: We heard you… awards are back!
Honestly I've read through this three times and have no idea what this new system is - are you basically just bringing back the old system where we can buy a buch of different aqwards but instead of being able to do it with coins it is all just straight up cash?
And you're not giving us gold to replace the old coins we lost because... I have no idea, I read that part of the FAQ and maybe it's because I don't understand the new system but it just feels like you're trying to cheap out somehow - maybe not, maybe this is great but I don't get it and honestly I've given up trying to.
You get you messed up and it's wonderful to see you acknowledge that and try to fix it, but this seems like a mish mash of the old gold system and th one you tried to replace it with and itfeels like it's going to be more confusing than ever. Me now.[1]

You articulated my thoughts on this exactly.
“It’s the same, but different.” Means it’s not the same.
I’m not interested in the Contributor Program. I am interested in putting a cute little sticker next to a post I enjoyed.

The only thing they learned is that the new system wasn't making them as much money as the awards.

They should just bring back the old system. Everyone would probably be happy again.

If they really wanted to sell premium more, they’d bring back coins that “drip” into your account. I won’t give out many awards if I pay as I go…

Well, I’m glad I’m not the only one that didn’t understand what I just read. I want the old awards I accumulated back, my former unused coins back. And I really don’t want to have to learn this new system which sounds way too complex and sounds like work not the pleasure stroll Reddit used to be with the old awards system.

So we were encouraged by Reddit to use all our gold or we would lose it and then these idiots have the cheek to say you will get back awards for what you didn’t use?? I hate this company.
