that one has placed himself also gives rep points for the solution + that you accept it?
Feels a little like "cheating" for me 
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

If you solved it yourself, and it's a "real" problem and a "real" solution, then I don't have a problem with it. It's when you get a lot of those, or when the question is clearly set only to get your solution that I start to scream "Abuse!"
But it smacks of "upvoting your own article" to me! 
Others may not be so forgiving...

Hmm well i didn't want to post the correct code of my question cause nobody else bothered helping me, so it me be a "unreal" solution although i described what i did 
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

That's not a very nice attitude, is it?
The reason for posting a solution is so that others with a similar problem can see it.
But your solution is basically "I fixed it" - which helps no-one.
I'm not impressed.

Well, it's common to stick to not very nice attitudes, isn't it?
OriginalGriff wrote: I'm not impressed.
I never intended to impress anyone with that, but for the sake of my coders code i'll update that code into the solution when i get home. After all im not the guy that is not nice. 
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

The "updated"solution should impress you a bit more. Hope my honor is reestablished 
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

There are questions in QA that never get answered and it's not only the stupid ones. Sometimes the person who could answer just doesn't see it before it gets swept away by new questions.

I'll second Griff on this one. Nothing drives me more up a wall quite like hunting for a solution to my problem, finding a post that is marked solved on whatever forum and the solution is "Fixed it myself." with no other explanation.
I understand if it was a problem you solved because of a silly little mistake and don't want to admit that you did something so amateur. What if I did the same thing and haven't noticed it yet because I am even more of an amateur than you? At least put in "Hey, I fixed it myself. I didn't notice that I put a semi-colon after the for loop." or something to help others.
Also agree that being able to mark your own answer as correct could be abused, but if someone starts asking a lot of questions and marking them all self answered I would hope that it would be noticed and dealt with. You should get credit for finding your own solution and sharing it with others.

Oh, trust me - it is, and it is!
A number of people have had accounts closed for just that.

What a gorgeous idea!
But I can bag only 10(?) rep points by answering the only question I posted here. 
You have just been Sharapova'd.

Sorry about that. I hate broken links -- feels like a spam troll or something.
