And while we are on the subject of Top Answerers, that needs a bit more clarification also.
My Top Answerer value just jumped from 5 to 11. Now, on the whole, I have no problem with this (particularly as the end of the month and prize assignment is approaching), but I'm still a bit confused. It does seem a bit odd the suddenly six people realized that I'd answered their questions (particularly since I wrote only one message in the last week that might be considered an answer to a question) . Is this tally done by an infrequently run off-line process? Or do moderators go through old messages and mark them answered in lieu of the original poster doing so?
Also, I see where threads with answers are marked, but is there any way to see way actual message with marked as the answer?
Also, it did just occur to me that I probably should mark your previous response to me as answering my question, but that doesn't appear to be an option. Am I missing something, or is that feature enabled by section?
Truth,
James
