| Oct 16, 2017 at 10:45 | comment | added | pomsky | @MarkKirby But I think OP has a valid point here. I would expect a uniform behaviour in this scenario. What could be the rationale behind placing the accepted answers at the top when they're posted by others but not when posted by the askers themselves? In both the cases there's a chance of having another answer with higher score than that of the accepted answer. | |

| Oct 12, 2017 at 17:22 | comment | added | Mark Kirby | Is this because you answerd your own question here: askubuntu.com/questions/963667/… Don't put the accept in too high regaurd, it only means that it helped to OP the most, NOT that it is best. Highly voted answers are often better ones and people should not overlook votes for the accept, answers should help anyone who reads them. As this happened only an hour ago, wait for votes. | |
