    Sure but they could have left the awards in place for a while even if no more could be added. And instead of making everyone lose all the coins they already spent money on, they could have allowed those coins to be used for whatever the next thing is. Just throwing out everyone’s money is never a good practice.

    Like what if Minecraft decided they were going with a new monetization strategy and said everyone’s minecoins would expire in a couple of months and any skins, texture packs, etc., you bought with them will also be gone. And no refunds of course.

      I did not know minecoins were a thing

      but in any case, I’m not saying that they’re making a good decision, just that I don’t see the point of reddit gold

      I don’t even know what the coins are, but if they did it this way, wouldn’t that cause a lot of people to want to sell accounts that still had coins and such? Maybe they wouldn’t to avoid a secondary marketplace. Either way, they really are tightening ship for the corpos.
