How can I mark my own answer as the "Accepted Answer"
One answer

@SpencerGriffin: Most of the forum does have this feature. The way out is not to award any point for that. The intent is not getting undue points, but collaborate and help the community to reach the solution faster. The attitude matters!
I agree with @kangkan that a good fix is to not award points if a user selects their own answer. It seems wrong that a user who posted a question knows and posts the right answer but has to wait for someone else to come by and mark it as the right answer.
@griffisp I think I agree with the comments above. We could enable this with no awarding of points. Please put this on the list.

@bkchulin: It is not even possible for someone else to mark a question as the right answer. This is only allowed for your own questions.
So if you have answered your own question, nobody can mark it as accepted answer.
i think moderators could. You could tell us which ones you want marked.
How can we best contact the moderators for this?
I don't want to bother you personally; I assume you have a lot of other work to do (taking into account the excellent articles on your blog).
Good question. I have no idea! Feel free to contact me. I will pass this on to some folks that could come up with a solutuion.

I also agree with @kangkan that users should not get not award points for answering their own questions.
