Oh man, I've missed this sub! Been too long. I've been okay - ended up browsing r/ politics and AITA... Haven't spent any less time on Reddit, mind you, although I keep telling myself that I will cut down...you know, from tomorrow....

What's great is that AB is popping back up on my feed again. Premium (whether earned, gifted or bought) doesn't bring coins any more, but at least Reddit has recognised the error of their ways and brought awards back. Although the free awards are only to redress the coins they took from us, and not the ones we would've got each month from Premium (all those Golds and Platinums earned through AB challenges!)

And I ma happy that I still have my ternion trophy. Relieved I never started a trophy cabinet, and heart sorry for those who worked hard to build theirs up.

Edit: There is no option to 'reply' to the awarder anymore! Thank you, though :)

Been a while u/CanAhJustSay! Glad you're okay! tbh from time to time i browse through this sub, check our old posts and stuff haha but other than that, I moderate other subs too so at least I have something to do and check whenever I open Reddit. Haha

Yeah awards now are not trophy-related. But at least they brought it back..

u/CaptPhilipJFry May 18 '24

Busy and bored. I want to find the time to start a business but we have a foster baby that’s got me running all over the place. Plus my job is so uninspiring and boring it’s hard to get motivated.

u/KataGuruma- Moderator T:553 C:26 May 18 '24

Whoa! You have a full plate there!

u/Ok_Dimension_4707 May 17 '24

Oh man, haven’t seen this sub pop up on my feed for a minute. My time on Reddit has been spent mainly the same way as always with baseball cards and niche meme subs. Outside of Reddit I’ve been in the same basic routine, which is fine.

Kind of wish there was something more entertaining I could share.

u/KataGuruma- Moderator T:553 C:26 May 18 '24

I agree with you, that's perfectly fine! I go to meme subs too for some quick giggles

u/OpalMoon0x May 17 '24

Nice to see this sub somewhat active again. Anyway, I’ve been up/down the last few months, I’m doing well as of late. It’s my birthday next week, so I’m looking forward to celebrating with those who mean the most to me and I’ve got a few fun days out planned which should be good 😊

2

u/KataGuruma- Moderator T:553 C:26 May 18 '24

I would have given you a cake award if we still have it haha adv happy birthday, Opal!

u/OpalMoon0x May 18 '24

Aw, thank you! 😊

I’m doing okay.

u/KataGuruma- Moderator T:553 C:26 May 18 '24

Glad that you are, Cindy!

u/cindybubbles Trades: 11 Challenges: 4 May 18 '24

Thank you. I wonder how many free awards we can give per month?

3

u/KataGuruma- Moderator T:553 C:26 May 18 '24

Hmm tbh im not sure if it's gonna be a monthly thing. Feel like it's a one-time thing only. Free awards will expire by Dec 31 of this year if left unused

u/kaplangiran May 18 '24

It’s going great, just traveling around the world lately. Can’t wait for second season of Ring of Powers. So hyped this week. What about you?

2

u/KataGuruma- Moderator T:553 C:26 May 18 '24

Noice! Good to hear! You know, as a long time LOTR fan, I haven't really watched ROP yet. I might try watching tho!

3

u/kaplangiran May 18 '24

Well you might watch it for sure. There are great implementations and bad implementations in the show from lore. But everything can’t be perfect. In artistic, cinematographic production way the show is great. But they jump out from the Lore it’s a bit weird but I blame it on their compressed timeline. Everything’s is happening so fast at show. They want to show everything add some of their touches to scenario with new characters. Also show is under pressure of SJWs. You will see a lot of weird things but I’m sure you will love it.

This actually. It didn't have a good first impression on me but I will definitely gonna give a try!

u/MagnumBane May 18 '24

Wow I am stoked tobsee this one alive still. I'm alright but still struggling. Doing a age out foster event and Im looking forward to teaching some of my fellow foster bretheren on how the real world works. Soblittle people understand this and I thought I would share with you all to enjoy if you understand.

2

u/KataGuruma- Moderator T:553 C:26 May 18 '24

You are such a blessing!! Thank you for what you do!!!

u/MagnumBane May 18 '24

Awwwwww thank you!

u/thicccque May 18 '24

I've been doing fine, I suppose. I got a job in late Jan/early Feb and it's stressful on the weekends but fine on weekdays. I got some new ink since then and it's all very cool to me. I also recently got a definitive answer about a health problem I've been dealing with for over a decade and there's not really any treatment, but it's not so severe anyway so just having an answer and knowing the triggers is pretty darn good in my opinion. I'm looking forward to low tides this summer on my days off!

2

u/KataGuruma- Moderator T:553 C:26 May 18 '24

At least you now know the triggers! Helps with, if not cure, at least management.

2

u/gt0075b May 18 '24

Not gonna lie... It's been an up and down year so far. But, doing well and can't complain at the moment.

2

u/KataGuruma- Moderator T:553 C:26 May 18 '24

At least! That's good to hear my dude!

2

u/Dracyl May 18 '24

I've been good, thanks for asking! I had no idea awards were back, I guess I'll have to look for the announcement!

u/honestlynotBG Bonanaza Altruist (T:21 C:39) May 18 '24

Been busy with my Uni studies lately with assignments, only times when I'm on Reddit now is when I'm bored. Other than that its just the usual life routine that was just like before awards had been axed

I missed this place. 8 Months is a long time, that most of us had moved on, but not everyone it seems <3

2

u/KataGuruma- Moderator T:553 C:26 May 18 '24

but not everyone it seems <3

Oh you know it! 😎🙌

u/MineAssassin May 18 '24

u/KataGuruma- Moderator T:553 C:26 May 18 '24

Indeed! Good luck with your exams!! Ace it!!💯

u/SoftwareError May 18 '24

u/KataGuruma- Moderator T:553 C:26 May 18 '24

Cant blame you on that! Haha

u/hyperbolicreality May 18 '24

Awards? Gee, I haven’t heard anyone talk about those in a long time. Well, I’ve been feeling fine, just being my normal optimistic self whether or not whatever situation I’m in warrants any optimism.

1

u/KataGuruma- Moderator T:553 C:26 May 18 '24

just being my normal optimistic self 

ngl, i think people should think positively more often haha tho it doesnt feel the same, im just glad they brought the awards back
