As long as you upvote good answers and accept the ones that best solves your problem, things should work out. | |
| Sep 19, 2012 at 9:25 | comment | added | Andrew Barber | My personal belief is that checking the "Accepted" mark is to denote that the answer solves your problem/issue the best. General 'Helpful' is denoted by upvotes of the community. If you feel strongly about it, you could consider leaving a comment to the effect of, "I think this is really useful for this general issue, but it doesn't exactly answer my specific question in this case", and briefly explain why. | |
| Sep 19, 2012 at 9:18 | comment | added | StarLordBlair | Brilliant thanks, one other thing when I answer my own question I've answered it in a way it has answered my question so I often mark that as 'my' accepted answer. What should I do if another answer seems like it would help more users rather than my answer to the question? | |
