No, this isn't a token giveaway thread. shoo
Good morning/afternoon/evening, newbie or veteran of ForsakenRO! :)
This is a semi-comprehensive guide about tokens: what you need to know about it, how to get these specific tokens, and many more.
I'll try to cover the necessary things about the matter. If I have forgotten anything, tell me by replying and I'll credit you. :)
Also, this is my very first guide for the server, so forgive me if I have committed a mistake on some areas (if I did.)
What are Tokens?
Tokens are considered to be the primary currency of the server (Zeny is next) when it comes to the market.
There are many variations of tokens, which will be discussed as thorough as possible in a later section below.
Why Tokens?
I myself am not sure why, but these are some possibilities:
Because of the zeny limit (1b) and the server being high-rate in general
To make the trading market easier when dealing
To make the economy organized
Variety in usage/purpose and rewarding
Uniqueness. :3
What are the kinds of Tokens available?
wall of text intensifies
At present, there are 9 types of Tokens.
Each Token will be explained about their function, way of obtaining,
and their significance below. :)

Whether it's Armstrong, Nebula, Capuccino, or Ares hosting an event,
you will get Event Tokens as your prize when you win their events.

Vote Tokens
Vote Tokens are basically points you accumulate to buy vote items, such as scarves and the Vote FKing set.
Right now, they're unavailable in-game and are transferred to the Control Panel for easy management.

Tokens used to be called Coupons, before the first episode of The Fate of the Gods came.

If you think my guide was helpful, please go to my profile by clicking me and giving me a like! :D
The Halloween Token and WoE Token sprite was taken from in-game, sorry if it's a teeny tiny bit ugly.
Also I'll try to put the sprite of the WoE token ASAP.
Special thanks to:
Hed Kandi, for giving insight about the possible reason of the existence of tokens.
