Lately I've been really curious about Reddit Gold (and its dark twin, Reddit Mold). People with RGold, what is different? Are you going to renew? Or is it more or less the same with a gold background or something like that?
EDIT: I currently use Reddit Enhancement Suite, and think it's the bomb diggity! Just wondering what more reddit has to offer that I don't know about yet.

With gold you get r/lounge access. The mold was last year's April Fools fun.
You may find it more rewarding to contribute to /r/Random_Acts_Of_Pizza
That's where all my happy pizza stories went!
I bought it to support Reddit, and will renew again for next year. That said, the lounge sucks, it's basically r/circlejerk with monocles, and I haven't been there in ages. There's a few other neat features (more comments per page, more subreddits displayed at a time, etc.) which are a neat bonus.
Am I safe in assuming you use RES as well?
Hypothetically, if you had to pick between Gold and RES, which would you pick?
For the features? Definitely have to go with RES there. Gold's got a few nifty things, but nothing I can't surf without, while Filtereddit and the style tweaks make Reddit so much more bearable.
if ya love reddit, send them some gold
Oh, man... I want me some reddit gold so I can feel all important and awesome!
I know right?? It's not enough just having an account or karma anymore.
Do you have Reddit Enhancement Suite?
Yes I do, but I have a feeling it slows down my firefox, so if I'm multitasking I don't use it (I use Chrome instead).
Is it similar?
You can use RES with Chrome too.
Just thought I'd ask because it gives way more features than reddit gold and it is free.
It's not worth it at all. They should add more features... but then again, Reddit Enhancement Suite....
It unlocks soo much porn. My penis hurts really bad now. But no regrets.
Its not very beneficial its more like a donation to Reddit since the site is free yet fun and useful.
Ah I see. Will I at least get a trophy?
Yes
A cyber trophy, that's it.
I'll take what I can get.
