Possible Duplicates:
Post-factum bounty?
How come no option to ‘tip’ answerers?

I understand this could lead to possible corrupt behavior, but no more than the ability to create multiple users and go from IP to IP adding points to yourself. I got an answer from Clement on SO that was so epic that he deserves a bounty, but he answered it in like 30 minutes so obviously there was no bounty.

mgmt will say "if its good others will upvote it"

rep sacrifice opens up the system to gaming

  • @waffles I kind of figured that too, but my inspiration for the idea came from the idea that if somebody doesn't know how much reputation they might get for an epic answer, but it could be a lot :), even enough to buy a new house or more, they might give more epic answers in hopes of accomplishing their dreams.
