I'm not blaming anyone for losing points (or reputation or whatever it's called)--I don't care about that. I care about the term bounties being misrepresented. 'Bounties' in every other sense of the word are awarded upon delivery or completion of a task. Here, they are just handed out to the highest voted answer regardless of accuracy. It's not a huge deal though--if that's the way the community wants to function, so be it. :) | |

removed personal abuse. Whether parts of it are ***''d out or not, its not needed, it doesn't add anything to the question except abuse of another member.

| Sep 27, 2011 at 14:39 | comment | added | Nixphoe | Since we're on this topic. I had a question where the bounty had expired and no one was awarded any points. Would it be worth to have some kind of silent bounty (by silent, I mean not show up on the publicity board) if the points go unawarded that they can still be given if someone in the future gives the answer? | |
| Sep 27, 2011 at 8:54 | comment | added | Zoredache | Wow, I didn't notice he bounty on that. Been a bit busy. If nothing good comes up I may add another bounty. Feel free to propose edits to make the question better. | |
| Sep 27, 2011 at 3:44 | comment | added | John Gardeniers | One thing I can't quite work out. Why did you post a bounty when you don't like the terms? Why do that and then come here and complain about it? | |
| Sep 27, 2011 at 3:39 | comment | added | John Gardeniers | Let's be really clear here. The poster NOT say "you are using the wrong tool for the job". He said "but I don't think OpenSSL is quite the tool for the job". | |
| Sep 27, 2011 at 3:18 | comment | added | user62491 | I have similar concerns - although I disagree with you on some points. It's important to remember that a bounty does not guarantee an answer (of any quality), however I think the threshold for auto-award of the bounty is far to low. I'd would like to see it moved to five (or more) upvotes before the bounty system can automatically award a bounty. | |
