| Feb 25, 2013 at 19:14 | comment | added | RJ Cuthbertson | I support this request. There's just something so much more rewarding when you get that green check mark of acceptance from some lonely soul on the internet you'll likely never meet. Plus, how many users go digging through old, answered questions on a regular basis with the intent of up voting answers that were never accepted? | |
