Why no body choose my answer as the best?

Because they liked other answers better.  But, don't get upset over it. Depending on the subject, you will get the best answer, it may take a bit of time, but it will happen.

I love answering questions, mainly because it makes me fel like my opinion matters. And even if no one reads my answer, or my answer isn't picked as the best (which i really like), then at least i have tricked myself into thinking that what i am typing in my answer counts on some level. Is it boredom, a need for recognition, a desire to be heard?! All the above!

i disagree with you.\nthe asker just simply doesn't WANT to choose. maybe they want to see more opinions from others on which answer is ideal. or when all the answers are the same... how do you choose...? just let the community choose. it also helps people learn because they can vote on things that they might not have been aware of.\n\n\ni agree partly that when my answers are chosen by the asker i feel a little better about myself but i don't think you should be bothered by those who put them up for voting. \n\nthats just my opinion. im not trying to be rude and arguementative but i just find that i have a different feeling towards this situation. i hope you can see where i'm coming from.

What in the world is this person (that you are referring to) thinking? There is always going to be an answer that is better than another (as far as opinions go). That is up to the person who is answering the poll. I'm not sure why there is even a field to indicate 'no best answer'. The only reason I can find for this option is that there are so many people on here that answer just for points that there may be a possibility of all answers being incredibly ridiculous. Therefore leaving no option other than to vote 'no best answer'. I, myself, have never voted for that, as there have always been people who answer at least with a link offering help - that is better than nothing or a snide remark. *shrug* Go figure.

I haven't encountered that yet and I don't see why anyone would do that.  I love giving good answers and feeling like I might have actually helped someone, or made someone laugh, at least.  That's why I really try to think it through when I choose a best answer and give it to the most deserving person.\n\nInteresting topic to bring up though.  Have a great day! :-)

go into your answers account and then look at the questions you answered. if the person who asked the question said it was the best answer, then you'd get an e-mail. if it's not the best answer, then you really have no way of knowing whether or not the other person found it helpful.

choose the answer that you feel answers your question the best, if you're unsure then leave it for voting.

I don't know.  It is one of my pet peeves.  I mean usually the votes end in a tie with everyone voting for themselves.  Too bad more people aren't like you.  It agitates me when I know I had a potential best answer but lost out because the person didn't even choose one. \n\nActually, I guess I am becoming obsessed with this site.  What does it really matter if I get 10 points anyway?  I get some sort of euphoric rush when I get a best answer.

Don't worry yourself about any one getting upset over whose answer that  you choose as the best answer.  After all the choice is yours and not theirs.  When i answer a question i don't even think about who is going to be chosen.

Just wait until you start getting "Someone has picked you answer as the best!" 10 points! It's addicting. Then you start to try and answer as many questions as you can in hopes of getting a best answer. Lol..just ask the guy who has 805 best answers...he'll tell ya...lol\n\nYeh, you do get a lot of the same answers on some things, but maybe someone has a diff insight. Something that stands out in their answer that could really help someone. There are a lot of folks out there who think they know it all, then there are those who really do know what they are talking about. It's tough when you have to cut through a lot of BS to get to the good stuff.\n\nI like yer pic...cute:)

I agree with you. \nSo many times have i seen great answers not being picked because the person asking the question. \nOnly wanted a certain answer or he/she had sidekicks who he/she preferred to give the points to. \nWell now i don't know about improving it when even yahoo cant or wont do anything about it. \nyes there is some comparison to democracy.
