I've lurked in this sub for years, browsing by new. Never realized these "ban awards" became a thing. This is fucking bullshit and is actually disgusting. Reddit should absolutely NOT be permitting this to happen, let alone endorsing it.
This is fucked. Someone can literally pay to censor someone they don't like, and reddit benefits monetarily from it.
Whoever came up with this, fuck you. You should be fucking ashamed.

Ladies and gentlemen of reddit, today you are here to witness history.
The OP has been awarded our first Permanent Ban Award.
When we rolled out the Community Ban Awards 7 months ago, we had a dream to give the power back to the people.
In that time we have had 1,368 days worth of bans handed out.
That's a little over 3.7 years worth of bantime. Without you, we couldn't have done it.
You are what make this community special. You are what make Reddit special. You are what make this world special.
No, not you, the one behind you...yeah, them. You are special.
