Do you select "the best answer" in your discussion?

The purpose of selecting the best answer is to recognize the best talent and wisdom of the respondent who deserves it. It too gives a psychological boost and stimulus to someone who has made extraordinary contribution to satisfy the curiosity and expectation of the initiator of the discussion. I try my best to look for the befitting response to my discussion and award the best answer only when I find somebody to have conveyed creative ideas and unique talent through his/her answer.

I always choose the best response after a week. It will be fair to offer more time for people to share their opinions. And choosing the best response is a kind of appreciation to the people who have responded to my discussion. It is a kind of encouragement. I love China

Hi thebest1, for a regular user here for a few year, I have started less than a hundred of discussion. I thin it's considered to be a user who is quite sluggish in writing new discussion. To me it needs time to take good care of a discussion started for I have to leave comments on every response received and then to pick a best response among them. It's rather tough if the discussion receives a great number of responses. Worse still if there is more than a response is showing similar excellent representation. It is rather time consuming to judge on the square which is the best among them. I dislike to see any of my discussion sitting in the unresolved discussion area. Therefore I usually would pick the best one and mark it as the best response after certain period, like a few weeks or month depending on the situation. I'm happy to see that there are BR available in all the discussions I have started respectively Happy posting

I usually select the best answer as soon as I find a content that was useful to me. But sometimes I get a better comment or responds after selecting the best answer well it really doesn't count when the answer sheet is submitted after the exam is over. does it

Yes i do select the best answer. First i selct all the answers as positive ans then i select the best one.

Hello Thebest1! I did not select "the best answer" from the discussions i've started, for the same reasons as you: does it help someone and how? Anyway, nice to see you here, and please notice that i'm caching up :D Happy myploting :D

Yes I always select a response which I choose as best response from my discussions. But sometimes I have got much response and then it is difficult to select a response for a best response because then there are many good responses. So then I take help from my friends. And we discussed about which I should choose for best response.

Yes I do. The best answer for me would be the one I feel best participates in the topic. I hope that would help the receiver alot especially in terms of boosting up his/her morale.

I do, not because I really know if it helps anyone, but I think MyLot wants us to do it, and I also see it as a way to compliment people who really contibuted to the discussion, so I don't mind...

As much as possible I try to select the best answer as a way of thanks to the poster who contributed a lot to the discussion I started. When I'm selecting the best answer, I consider the content of the post and not because of its length.

no, i have done it only once untill now
