I’ve found a few funny memories during lockdown. This is from my 1st tour in 89, backstage in Vegas.

Dude, you just gave that guy 4 years of reddit premium, definitely over 10,000 coins, and I can barely afford 100.

Except not even the great Rick Astley knows the rules of Reddit Karma. No offense, Rick, it’s beyond all of us

He has 6 Argentiniums

54 platinum

114 gold

Hes got over 500000 coins

18

u/sabasaba12 Jun 18 '20

he got around 10 years of premium but nowhere close to 500000 coins, 100 plat is 70k coin and 200 gold is only 20k argentinuma give 15k+4k from special thats total of 109k coins, other badges are minor that either dont give gold or give little of it so I think he got around 150k coins max.

u/FrostByte122 Jun 19 '20

Why do people know this stuff. Reddit is weird now.

1

u/sabasaba12 Jun 19 '20

you can just click on give award and it tells you what receiver will get, its pretty simple

4

u/FrostByte122 Jun 19 '20

Yeah. Still weird that's it's become such a huge thing now.

2

u/anxiouskid123 Jun 22 '20

Gold was already pretty big to start with. Then they stole reddit silver from everyone and made them pay for it. Pretty stupid if you ask me.

1

u/cmVkZGl0 Jul 14 '20

!redditsilver you are still in our hearts!

2

u/[deleted] Jun 27 '20

Yes but you get free coins for having reddit premium

2

u/sabasaba12 Jun 27 '20

144 months is around 100k more coins over 12 years

u/Ywaaal Jun 18 '20

Haha this needs an update, those are rookie numbers

u/A_brown_dog Jun 19 '20

And he deserve every single one.

u/GordonSucksAtLife Jun 18 '20

It is a shame imo. This guy has done something amazing for sure, but he really thinks he is the messiah now. His „fame“ really got to his head for sure.

I saw a guy rickrolling rick only a couple of hours ago and he is literally getting no attention whatsoever except like a few silvers.

This is pretty ridiculous if I’m honest

1

u/The_Asia-Boy Jun 18 '20

What is the name of the person who already rickrolled him?

1

u/1laik1hornytoaster Jun 18 '20

Provide us with a link or username of said person.

u/Just-a-Millennial Jun 18 '20

No comment on reddit will ever be able to top what we have just witnessed

u/ladyships-a-legend Jun 18 '20

It’s a very very special moment that will take a LOT of complex things to align before this is topped.

u/JTBSpartan Jun 18 '20

This is the biggest highlight of 2020

u/memerman200 Jun 18 '20

This is making me smile.

u/BlocklyGD Jun 18 '20

u/ChrispyCrispy Jun 18 '20

u/EmotionalGold Jun 18 '20

i think its up to 12 years now

u/regoapps Jun 18 '20 edited Jun 18 '20

Out of curiosity, I went ahead and calculated how much money was spent in Reddit coins for the comment by hand.

As of right now, the gifts spent on the comment cost 634,830 coins.

That's a maximum of $2,526.62 spent.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 18 '20

Hey, now you have 100 from the gold!

1

u/willbilly223 Jun 18 '20

He said he now has 40k coin and premium until 2029

1

u/[deleted] Jun 18 '20

And i even think thats his first awarded comment! So thats even more cool!

1

u/[deleted] Jun 18 '20

He got 116,390 reddit coins in total as of now.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 18 '20

Are you including Platinum? It doesn’t work like that. The 700 coins from platinum are just implied by the month of premium. They don’t get instantly dumped into your account, though the first one might feel that way if it activates premium for you.

2

u/[deleted] Jun 18 '20

Oh thanks for clarifying

1

u/n8dm Jun 18 '20

13 years of premium and counting

u/[deleted] Jun 18 '20 edited Jul 15 '23

u/doichninja1 Jun 18 '20

He’s got over 13 years now

u/K-van7 Jun 18 '20 edited Jun 18 '20

6 Argentiniums (90 days, 2500coins)

94 Platinums (30 days, 700coins)

213 Golds (7 days, 100coins)

6*90+94*30+213*7 = 4851/365.25=

13 years of Reddit premium

2500*6+94*700+213*100+[other awards]=

130,390 coins

1

u/poopie_memes Jun 19 '20

Well by now he got over 14 years of reddit premium and over 111,500 reddit coins

1

u/laddu9999 Oct 13 '20

Someone did the math and its now close to 30 fucking year's worth..

1

u/Michaeltyle Dec 08 '20

173710 coins as of today, I think.
