Voting for your own answer?
Ethics aside, can you vote for your own answer?
I've never asked a question before, so bear with me.
I've noticed that sometimes I've been the only person who answers a question. In that case, does it make sense to vote for myself? Why would the answer go to voting if there is only one answer? Can't the person who asks the question accept that answer and resolve the question, or does it just go to voting after a certain timeframe if the person who asks hasn't selected an answer?
I've also seen questions out there in voting with no answers at all!
