The 'Best Response' function was removed (as @JolietJake has said) when the site was radically redesigned in May 2013. It served no practical purpose and was often either abused or a source of unnecessary aggravation for the OP because, more often than not, there were two or more 'best' (or at least complementary) responses. Quite often, people were actually deterred from responding to a discussion if they saw that 'Best Response' had been awarded. It was several times officially stated that it did not contribute to the earnings (some said that 'B.R.' stood only for 'Boasting Rights').
Since the reintroduction of the earnings program with completely new earning criteria, the feature would have even less relevance, though I can see that there might be a case for displaying responses and comments in some kind of order based on the number of likes and/or comments they have generated.

I never liked that feature as sometimes after I’d give someone’s comment a best response someone else would leave a better one and I couldn’t change things.
