"Make best answer" more than once?

Attariyah · October 2019

Okay so I was wondering whether or not I can make more than one "Best Answer" to my question. I tried to but it seems like I can't. What I did figure out tho was that I can change the "best answer" many times and each time I do that the person gets 50 points. I was even able to give the same person 50 points twice... Is this how it's suppose to be or is this a glitch?

I already saw that behaviour when a whizz was closing the answer, and I thought that only them had this option. On my opinion is a bug should not be possible
Yesterday I saw a post being closed making the best answer and reopen, I find that was an easy way to give points and it was a Whizz

It's probably a glitch lol.

Yes as you posted the question, you should be allowed to change your selected Best Answer.

The glitch/bug may be that the points earned are supposed to be removed for the previous Best Answer.

Of course if we take advantage of any system glitch, this may be construed as gaming the system, which means we are violating TOS agreement.

@Fizzy if you can change the answer you should be able to reopen a question too

It might even be an intentional glitch. It allows for more than one person to get rewarded for interesting answers. As long as we don’t abuse it, it might be just okay
