Dec 28, 2011 at 3:35 comment added Jonas Meyer In addition to Zev's reason why it is usually not relevant, the bumping can also be a positive side effect of not accepting in cases where there is a good answer that went overlooked by voters.
Dec 27, 2011 at 10:17 comment added Zev Chonoles Mod That's true, but it should be noted that that only comes into play if no answers have upvotes, which, while not necessarily an indication of poor quality (unfortunately), is not promising either.
Dec 27, 2011 at 10:09 comment added Martin Sleziak Perhaps not that important as the three you mentioned, but accepting an answer also prevents the question from being bumped repeatedly: see here: meta.math.stackexchange.com/questions/1808/…
