Q: Prevent questions with bounty to be auto-deleted

Originating from this question on MSO (Question about the name of a software design pattern was deleted), we wondered why a specific question was deleted, which met all requirements for deletion, but had a bounty on it. As Mad Scientist sums up in that post, a question does quality for deletion,...

Do you want me to delete since you were first?

@LynnCrumbling Nope - it's just 100 if you're 200+ on another site...

Lynn Crumbling

@JonClements Wonder if there's been a feature-request asked about it on se's meta.

@JonClements At the very least, a 20k user seems tantamount to the bbs days of a visiting sysop.

Jon Clements

I don't recall seeing one. However, I think the idea is to just get you past the new user restrictions. Not to boost you to other privs - as by working your way through rep on the other site, you'll learning how the other community works etc... It'd be unfair to be a trusted SO user and then join another site and suddenly get full edit privs or something...

Lynn Crumbling

4:25 PM

@JonClements That's fair, especially given that some sites allow pseudo-subjective questions, and uses on [SO, SU, database, etc] may be unaware of that site's policy.

Jon Clements

If for instance a trusted user came over from Sci-fi and fantasy - their vast rep related to Harry Potter probably doesn't make them suited to start closing my field of expertise on SO,,, :p
