Liking Your Own Posts in the Stream and Through out ES

This topic is meant to be a debate over the practice of being able to like your own stream items or content posted in EasySocial. On Facebook I've always thought it was kinda silly to be able to like your own post. Of course you like your own post which is why you put it up. It doesn't really serve any value in my opinion to be able to like your own content, it's just like being able to vote for yourself. With star rating systems they typically don't allow you to vote on your own content.

Would love to hear the community voice up on this subject.
