| Nov 24, 2012 at 12:09 | comment | added | MarioDS | @ACarter unfortunately what I notice more and more these days (mainly on SO) is that upvotes do not come from people thinking that your question is well formatted or good, but from people to which it applies... | |
| Nov 24, 2012 at 12:03 | comment | added | ACarter | Just saying, but often you'll earn rep from setting a bounty, as more people will se you're question, so more people will upvote it (assuming it's good). | |

| Nov 13, 2012 at 3:08 | comment | added | rtf | @IvoFlipse Miscalculated? That doesn't have to be a factor. It would make sense that placing a bounty slows your progress to the next privilege, but doesn't ever remove privileges. | |

| Nov 12, 2012 at 20:36 | comment | added | slhck Mod | What do you mean by "I don't know what you do with those"? Meta Stack Overflow currently is more or less the Meta for every site. So if a feature is requested there, it'll always be implemented for the entire network (except for when the feature request is about Stack Overflow specifically). | |
| Nov 12, 2012 at 20:36 | comment | added | Ivo Flipse Mod | While I understand it sucks to lose privileges, I don't expect the team to 'fix' this, because it would complicate the system. Currently, deciding what privileges you have is easy, its a direct function of how much rep you have. I can already imagine the Meta posts of users who miscalculated and taught they were supposed to have said privilege, even though they don't. Yeah, not gonna happen... | |
| Nov 12, 2012 at 20:31 | comment | added | MarioDS | @slhck as I've said, this is a question that in my opinion has meaning for every single SE site. I don't know what you do with those... | |
| Nov 12, 2012 at 20:17 | comment | added | slhck Mod | Discussed on MSO: Is losing privileges after placing bounty OK? | |
| Nov 12, 2012 at 19:52 | comment | added | MarioDS | @amiregelz downvotes alone could not drastically drop the user's reputation imo. When a post gets a lot of downvotes, it gets removed anyway before they get voted below, say -6 at most. That reputation can easily be regained. But as a passive user, losing a privelege for example with 80 rep, takes some time to regain. Not that it is a real problem, it's just the fact that it doesn't make sense. | |
| Nov 12, 2012 at 19:48 | comment | added | amiregelz | TBH, I understand the logic behind this for cases when a user loses his reputation for getting downvotes - but I agree that it doesn't really make sense to lose privileges due to issuing bounties. | |
