| Aug 24, 2018 at 16:05 | comment | added | harrymc | @djsmiley2k: The community can only award half the bounty, and that also on condition that an answer got at least 2 votes. For many posts, the poster and/or bounty person are the only ones really interested. There is also the little gotcha that if they are not the same person, then even if the poster accepts the answer then in this case bounty awarding doesn't follow acceptation. | |
| Aug 24, 2018 at 14:19 | comment | added | djsmiley2kStaysInside | How do you mean abandoned? The asker doesn't return to award it to an answer? Surely then the community decides anyway? Maybe I'm missing something here. | |
