| Oct 20, 2014 at 2:46 | comment | added | Robotnik | Nothing is stopping the OP coming back and writing the answer themselves once they've earned 15 rep. I've seen people leave a comment to the effect of "Hey, I've added this as a CW answer for you, if you post your own I'll remove it". The fact is most people with < 15 rep will either earn enough to post it themselves within a couple of days, or won't come back at all. The best we can do is upvote them for a quality question (something that isn't done enough I reckon - everyone is quick to downvote, but less so to reverse that vote or edit it into something worth upvoting) | |

My question was about avoiding that situation, keeping the question out of the unanswered questions pool where someone needs to find it after the fact and do your 2 or 3, and allowing the conscientious poster to get some credit. | |

| Oct 19, 2014 at 23:55 | comment | added | fixer1234 | I do similar but the problem is that new OPs can't answer their own questions (requires 15 rep). | |
