Aug 1, 2019 at 15:32 comment added mbrig @PimpJuiceIT I don't know if SU follows the same policies, but SO mods have said the main two cases where'd they'd remove a bounty are when the bounty is blocking very a bad question from being closed, or voting fraud/rep fraud taking place.

Jul 24, 2019 at 22:05 comment added Vomit IT - Chunky Mess Style @DavidPostill Are you saying that the reasons why bounties have been rescinded in the past is not appropriate to tell other people those reasons? I nearly want to open a meta question asking what might be some exceptional reasons why a bounty is rescinded for people have trouble getting it to close so they can see some examples. If their reason is not close to one of these exceptional circumstances, then perhaps that'll help clarify further. It seems like you are saying the reasons this was allowed in the past in top secret for only mods to know or something and that doesn't seem right to me.

Jul 24, 2019 at 19:55 comment added DavidPostill Mod Bounties are only rescinded in exceptional circumstances which we do not normally disclose.
Jul 24, 2019 at 18:26 comment added rene I'm sure the mod who handled it will come by and explain their reasoning.
Jul 24, 2019 at 18:23 comment added Automate This @rene - Also, no answers were in place when I flagged the question originally so this couldn't have been the mod's thought at the time.
Jul 24, 2019 at 18:22 comment added Automate This @rene - I'm very grateful for the effort the two users put into the comments and answers. That doesn't change the fact that the question and answer are very different from one another and are not quality content for future users. I'd be happy to gift my points to harrymc for his help if that was possible.
Jul 24, 2019 at 18:14 comment added rene it has an answer and if it picks up an upvote it might win the bounty. That answerer probably invested time due to the bounty. Removing that bounty does them a disservice. A bounty should only be removed if no other parties are involved.
