This panel can be used to refund or remove bounty on a request. If the bounty is refunded, the buffer is returned to the user who added to the question (if buffer tax is enabled, the portion deducted from tax is not refunded). If the bounty is removed, nothing is credited back to the user. The latter should be used for cheaters.
If a request has been filled, the bounty will be removed from the stats of the filler. In this case, they will receive a PM explaining the situation. PMs are not sent to the people whose bounties are removed or refunded. In all cases, a note is made on the user profiles of those affected.
To avoid accidents when removing bounty, you must select both the radio button in the Remove column and also check the box.
