It remains as my opinion that 'Best Answer' is an unnecessary facility within AB.
A strange attitude you may feel from someone who already has been awarded such an honour on a number of occasions.
I am not prepared to use the 'button' and am not seeking to be nominated as being in any way superior to other ABers.
All serious answers are worthy of applause and often there are more than one which warrant's commendation in a single thread. Consequently, I prefer to thank posters , both individually and/or collectively, as is appropriate to their responses, to any of my questions.
It does seem to be that most folk are in favour of 'Best Answer' so, although I am seriously against it, I shall refrain from saying anything further at this stage.
In the meanwhile, I thank all of you who have contributed to this thread.
I often forget it's there but am always worryingly chuffed with myself when I acheive one.... I think it's only happened the once though via craft so I don't have much experience to write from :c)
I wish they'd change the exact wording of the link you have to click to something like "select as best answer"... It might stop people calling everyone Mark.
