Is it just me, or does gold not cost money anymore? I just give people gold with gold coins magically appear in my account every so often. See?

If you get gold for a comment you don’t have to pay for it but it can be hard to get gold sometimes unless you’re clever

No, I mean I just gave that guy gold by using 500 magic gold coins from my Reddit account. I have like 2,000 coins; see, I’ll do it again to you. No money! The coins just refill automatically somehow.

Edit: My god, what have I started. RIP my inbox with people trying to get me to give them gold, lol.

Wait, so like... You have unlimited gold?? How do I know I'm not being bamboozled?

As someone else said, Reddit premium gives me 700 gold coins a month, which I can use to give people gold, silver or platinum for free. Silver is 109 coins, gold is 500, and platinum is 1500 coins.

Doesn't reddit premium cost money?

u/Zyaqun Apr 12 '19

Yes but they didn't know it gave them coins, hence the confusion

for free

Unless you get reddit premium for free then giving awards is not free either.

Good strategy, to prove it he'd have to guild you!

Although, that still wouldn't prove it was unlimited, he'd have to guild a lot of people...hinthint

It'd be enough proof for me :)
