How do you feel about being picked or not picked as the BEST answer?

When people answer my questions I just love all of them and want to invite them all to my house for tea , then later maybe a movie and Monopoly or to just ask each other questions all night. I love it. I hate picking the BEST because everyone is the BEST for even caring. Right? Or am I being a Pansy?

How do you feel about being picked or not picked as the BEST answer?
You're being a pansy :-) The one that speaks to you and your heart at that moment is the one to choose.





You have a point, I've gotten some real caring and suprisingly smart answers from the community - and I am thankful, but we can only pick one. I always make it a point to, as you are doing, commend and thank the others, then move on to the next thing.





The worst decision is INDECISION :-)
Reply:Sometimes I know I've answered a question correct and first and I'm dissapointed when I don't get best answer. Like a factual question, like if someone asks who the first president is and I answer first and don't get it :(


If I ask an opinion question I have a hard time picking best, I'll just let it go to vote.
Reply:Its true what you are saying.But people ask questions to know or t get exact answers what they r looking for. Usually some may not frame questions properly as per their intentions, but still they r looking for their bulls eye answers. So when they pick the right answer naturally the other person gets glorified... making a felling u have done some thing good to others...
Reply:Some answers are standouts, and I will even read them and think that my answer to the same question was inadequate!





lol... then again, sometimes I read the 'best answer' and think 'that person didn't want help, they wanted people to agree with them!'.





I love when I get a 'best answer'. But I'm happy when someone chooses an answer that is factual, sensible, practical and realistic. I'm always disappointed when an answer is chosen that I feel has given poor advice or information.
Reply:Well, I'm only picked for best answer 3 % of the time. So when I'm not picked, I don't feel bad or anything. Generally I'm surprised which of my answers are picked as best. IMO, my best answers are never picked and my one word answers gain me ten point. So, meh.





BTW, I'd love to come over for tea sometime. When is good for you?
Reply:When I get a best answer I am thrilled that I have in some small way helped someone. I had one the other day (I did only a little research, from the other side of the world and found exactly what this person was looking for) she was so appreciative she called me an angel! That made my whole week! I appreciate all the people that take the time to answer but I think the people who write nasty things or inappropriate things spoil it for others, like us, we should just ignore them. I like your idea, why don't you put a suggestion to yahoo that they change the points system for say people with level 3, 4 so they can choose 1, 2 or 3 answers. Good 1 points, Better 3, points, Best 6 points? or something like that.
Reply:i always hate picking the best in general aswell - but at the end of the day you always have a favourite even if you dont want to share it to hurt others - but if the others have enough empathy they should understand that you have your own opinion
Reply:i feel fine being not picked as the bet answer.. at least i tried and i know that i helped even just a little bit or gave a little idea..





and, yes, i agree with you.. it's hard to pick the best answer because they are all the best for caring to help..





take care =)
Reply:if it's too irksome maybe you should try resisting picking a best and see if that works better for you.





i agree with you though, i get a lot of great answers but i do pick an answer that is even slightly better so he/she can score the points
Reply:I get frustrated when im not picked sometimes, because i answer to the best of my knowledge and experience, and sometimes soneone is picked for best answer that made a lame joke!


Grawr.





Can I be the Iron piece?
Reply:I don't get emotional about it.





I would feel good if something I thought I had done well on was recognized.





Often my responses are truthful but answered to questions that are for "fun".


No literary acumen required or recognition anticipated..
Reply:I happy when my answer was selected, bcos some people get use with my knowledge.


But we cant sure always, that we are genious.


So no worries when not selected.
Reply:I feel okay both ways.Everyone has the freedom to think and judge another's answer.
Reply:Just pick one lol


do eenie meenie minee mo!


or pick none and let everyone vote XD
Reply:l select the answer that best answers my question............


There can only be one.......
