| Aug 24, 2018 at 18:41 | comment | added | Run5k | "A lot of questions with reasonably good answers are abandoned without being accepted, regardless if a bounty is set or not." That's exactly what I was thinking. Unfortunately, the abandoned question phenomenon is rather common within the Super User realm, with or without a bounty. | |
