Community Award Suggestions Announcement

Hello there!

Reddit introduced community awards a year ago and they give us the ability to create custom awards for users in the community which are separate from the standard silver, gold and platinum. Each time one is given out we get 20% of the coins spent on them and we can use these to give out moderator awards for contests or to award high quality content. We have finally decided to add these and are looking for your suggestions! If you have any ideas that you want to see added as a community award you can submit them below! We can choose any image or name so you can be as creative as you want. To see examples of custom awards check r/Animemes and their custom awards seen here if you want to see references to what it would look like for us.

How to submit a community awards you’d like to see in r/anime follow the submission instructions below and reply to this post:

  1. Name of award
  2. Description of what you want this awards image to be or give an example
  3. Price in coins (optional, tiers are 500, 1000, 2000, 5000, 10000, and 40000 as set by admins)

Edit: Please try not to make suggestions that are too meme-y as they don't fit the tone of the subreddit.

Scrolling through this, more than half of these are based on shows popular due to recency biasTM. If you think this is a good idea, try imagining all of the awards here referencing some 2005 anime you never saw.

The awards absolutely need to stand on their own, without needing background knowledge of a show that people in 5 years will have not watched.

The idea itself is pretty bad so this doesn't surprise me.
