User being added to "Have this question" on thread reply

This is by design, when a thread is verified by a user other than an author they are given a "I have this..." vote automatically.  Its not based on reply.

Hi Patrick - I'm not sure I understand this response.  I have replied to posts many times and verified the reply and this has never happened to me. Can you please clarify?  Thank you.  Geneva

When a user, who is not the thread author, verifies a reply as an answer they will be added to the I have this Question too votes.  You can see it here, I verified my reply above and now I am part of that list in the upper right

I find this confusing and sends the wrong message, as a moderator/admin of a forum, I want to mark a reply as a verified answer, but that doesn't mean that I have that question too at all.

I can understand automatically 'upvoting' the reply because that adds it to the 'best answers', but it falsifies responses by adding a moderator or admin to 'I have this question too' when I do not.

Agree

I also agree, it is very confusing.
