    Unfortunately i can tell you from experience that the person who is trying to claim the bounty then moves onto the mods, pm'ing us non stop about wanting the points and how the site advertised it so has to pay up. No matter how many times we say we didnt set the bounty and that they didnt meet the stipulations they just dont listen and continue to ask us over and over to pay the bounty.

    By refusing to sticky bounties with stipulations it does 2 things for us. 1) It removes the situation i described above, and 2) It saves us from having a debate in chat with someone who wants us to sticky a bounty with stipulations. We dont have to explain our situation on it every time someone wants a sticky.

    The idea behind this isnt to control any situation, its simply so we dont get caught up in the middle of bounties gone wrong due to stipulations. If people want to make threads for their bounties or post them in chat that is fine, we are not trying to eliminate stipulations, we just dont want to be seen as liable for them.

    You are missing the point entirely and ultimately it is you and the other mods that will have to deal with the DRAMA that is to come.

    Good Luck with that.
    TON is GONE. Blame the Mods. They stopped caring, or at least that's how it looks and feels.

    I feel that you are just blatantly ignoring everything i explained to you. If not then i dont understand how you are reaching your judgement on the issue.

    Do yourself one favour, have someone write a clear and concise rule regarding bounties that can be linked to by keyword in the forums.

    You are saying this will create drama, i went in depth to explain how it will help stop any drama, then you reply again saying it will create drama.

    Please elaborate so i atleast know where ur coming from. Explain how it is going to lead to more drama.

    I asked Zab once " How many disclaimers in a bounty is too many for us to sticky?" and he answered "7" ... which I took as sarcasm, meaning there should not be any.

    As I said earlier, since bounties without stipulations can not be effectively stopped, and since only SIMPLE bounties (less common by my experience)will be posted, then un-stickied bounties with stipulations will become the norm (assuming people don't spam the boards). This will lead to a greater number of untracked bounties. Do you really think the people who bitch about not getting their points will care weather you stickied the bounties or not? Of course not. The more bounties that are sanctioned, the more FORCE the MODS have in arbitrating them.

    Questions: How often does it happen that someone refuses to pay a bounty with stipulations?

    Out of how many stipulated bounties on average?
