Still re. Best Answers?
Up to a couple of days ago, my profile showed I had 3 best answers awarded & shown as such. They are not there any more, showing a big 0. Who removed them & why?
How does one know whether one has indeed helped someone to solve a problem? For me it's only worthwhile for that reason alone.
10 point extra doesn't replace the satisfaction of the acknowledgment of something well done.

your best answers are still there but because you've answered more questions your percentage has gone down and the computer doesn't do 0.5% so they round it down

Your 3 best answers are still there, but your percentage has dropped to 0% (that is, below 1%).
The stupid Yahoo computer doesn't know how to round up.

I just clicked on your avatar and looked at your profile and it still shows 3 best answers... try going under your profile and instead of looking at "All Answers" click beside it where it says "Best Answers" and they'll still be there. If you have answered more than 5 questions they just won't show up without scrolling through the pages of answers, so that's just the easiest way to look at your best answers :)

You still have three Best Answers, but the system does not do fractions and rounds down, thus why you have 0%

I checked your profile and your points are still there mate. They've just gone into percentage instead.
