The actual solution is substantially different. If we had to accept everyone's answer which "ultimately" led to the final solution, then I see a lot of "unethical" behavior! | |
| May 20, 2012 at 13:30 | comment | added | Marco Ceppi Mod | It's clear, based on the timestamps and comments, that Stephen's answer was what ultimately lead to the fix to the question. Not only that, but the accepted answer isn't very helpful and is out of context. We encourage users to answer their own questions but we also hope they don't trample other users efforts in an attempt to secure their answer as the right one. | |

I've generally seen encouragement on answering one's one question if none of the other answers are satisfactory. Now I guess I will think twice. Not only can I be publicly accused of unethical behavior (I'm baffled that some people use such strong language for this kind of small matter), but community pillars will not carefully examine evidence before stating I have "this kind of behavior". | |
