I did and it seems it is allowed by design. Saves us time creating sock puppet accounts and upvoting

Not much different from creating a sock puppet and doing so. :shrug:

It would take a lot of effort to get a sock puppet to the point to where it could award you 40 points.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

But it would be easy for 4 sock puppets to give you 40 points.

I can't see why the author should be excluded from voting. On the other hand I don't see the benefit of voting your own articles, I'd rather let others to judge the content

Some people are under the mistaken assumption that the reputaion points on any given public forum actually means something, or or the the points have an intrinsic value that transfers over to them personally.
Given the opportunity, how many facebook people would "like" themselves a billion times to give the appearance that they are somehow popular?
It was broke, so I fixed it.

51K for random bad jokes, clicking on this that or assisting the occasional noob in Q&A, but no real effort spent.
Hasn't helped me at all professionally. I'm sure that if I mention my rep points at review time they add 10% to my merit raise...

On CP the points do mean something, since privileges are unlocked by gaining reputation. I certainly don't want spammers to have the power to post articles without moderation or to approve their spamming buddies' articles. I also don't want trolls to disapprove legitimate articles or edit other people's questions for fun.

Seems like it's definitely a bug, we can't upvote our own comments here or accept our own Q&A answers, so it seems weird that articles are different. And even if it's by design, surely it shouldn't award rep points.

It seems to be by design and it does award points.

Ate at a new restaurant this weekend.
I had a hamburger.
It had fresh ground peanut butter on it.
It was actually good.
Anyone else had something like that?

Two slices of toast.
Butter them, and add crunchy peanut butter.
Add bacon. Lots of bacon.
Eat.

That does sound good.

My doctor told me a longtime ago, "if it tastes good it is not on your diet".
For the most part I listen to that advice. It is easy when my wife cooks, but sometimes I stray, and peanut butter and bacon is one of my favorites.
In the pursuit of better health I don't butter the bread.

Yup: one of the gourmet food trucks in LA served a burger with peanut butter and jelly. It was amazing.
I had a peanut butter, turkey and cheese sandwich the other day.

Place here does that, but the other half is allergic so I tend to avoid stuff like that and only indulge when she is out of town.
That said, it is really good, they also grind bacon in with the patty, fry pickles and put them on the burger, along with a few other wonderful options.
