But it would be nice to be notified that you can't vote on this deleted post before you receive the warning in the second image. Alternatively you could re-use the implementation that is currently used when the bounty isn't elligeble for awarding yet (first 24 hours). | |

| Feb 26, 2013 at 22:25 | comment | added | animuson StaffMod | Ultimately, for the same reasons that all the other voting buttons (up, down, and accept) appear on deleted posts. Doesn't make sense to remove one and leave the rest... | |

| Feb 26, 2013 at 22:16 | comment | added | animuson StaffMod | Considering only 10k users can see deleted answers, you'd expect them to know by now that they can't actually award bounties on them anyways... | |

| Feb 26, 2013 at 22:10 | comment | added | Madara's Ghost | My take on this is that the button is shown on every answer (even if it's classed "deleted"). The actual check, whether or not the bounty can or cannot be awarded for whatever reason, happens server-side. Hence you only see the error after you submit your request, and get a response from the server. | |
