check-mark a topic started by someone else

[wolf_II]

I have fooled around a bit and tested the green check-mark thingy:

Is anybody aware of the following strange behaviour?

When I browse the forum with a different browser (where I'm not logged in), and I look at a topic started by a guest,
then I get to see an icon with a check-mark whose ToolTip reads "Accept this answer". so far so good.

Is is intended that every not-logged-in user is able to check-mark a random answer of every topic started by another not-logged-in user?

How's a guest supposed to mark it then?
I know it's not great, but when I set to moderator change only, I get argued to bring it back to normal.

OK, Thanks for clarifying. I don't feel strongly one way or the other, I guess I was just surprised how that works and thought "Is this intended?"
But I did not think it through, I suppose you have to decide one way or the other and I'm sorry for troubling you.

Thank you for your time to answer. And thank you for the time that you (and the rest of the team) dedicate to this forum.
