Do moderators have the privilege to accept the answer on their own if answer gets much positive points and is helpful for users?
1 Answer
No. Only the question's author can accept an answer.

But especially unregistered users tend to not accept an answer, and they will wander around like a ghost in the system :( Community (-1 user) will push them to first page every now and then, users look at the question again and again, but the answer has already been given. Would be nice if a moderator could accept an answer after like 2-3 months, or community vote after this time.– CodeManXCommented Feb 17, 2014 at 11:37

1@CoDEmanX, as long as at least one answer is upvoted, Community will not bump the question. The criteria for bumping is that both must be true: A) no upvoted answer, B) answer not accepted. Commented May 29, 2014 at 12:15
