Solving your own bounty

Hi all,

I had a quick question and couldnt find the answer.
What happens if you can solve your own bounty? Do you still get the points reward or not?
I had one pattern that I posted in bountys but bought a few weeks later and posted. I needed the pattern for a gift, but I didnt get the coins. There was a thing the mod put as a note that said SBBO but I dont know what that means.

Im not sure about the note, but I do remember solving my own bounty once, and I did get the coins (minus the forum tax). Its been a few years ago though, so I dont know how it is now.

If a bounty owner posts the pattern, the coins are always returned to the bounty owner.
There is no entry for the coins in your points log, however.

That makes sense, Im not the OP, but thank you for the response, since I also might be doing that again at some point :D
