how to choose a best answer?

Update:

Vlad, I didn't know because I very rarely ask questions here.

Advice: Think before you react!

By the way, you didn't answer, just reacted.

    -Firstly you have to wait until your question has been open for at least an hour to give people a chance to answer it

    - once at least an hour has past go to your Q&A profile and click the Questions tab

    -Then click on the question that you wish to choose a best answer for

    -Read all answers that have been provided

    -When you find the answer you wish to award best answer to click the blue button below their answer that says 'Choose as best answer'

    - Then rate their answer 1 star being not very good, 5 stars being excellent and helpful

    -Finally enter feedback and confirm you want to choose that answer.

    You have now chosen the best answer to your question and you will be awarded 3 points for doing so

    Simply Just click the blue button saying at the bottom best answer.

    You won't be able to choose a best answer until one hour has passed since you entered the question so if you don't know how it's probably because you can't yet.

    Yahoo won't let you choose a best answer before an hour probably because better answers may come later, you should wait awhile.

    >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> If your meaning which answer to choose, do what the answers say and choose the one that suits/helps you the most.

    Return to your question after a minimum of one hour after posting your question. There will be a blue bar under each answer, click on the bar to the answer you have chosen. If you haven’t chosen ‘Best Answer’ in four days, then it goes to voting.

    Choose the answer that you find most suitable in every way. This might vary from question to question, but the main rule applies to all of them. Remember: answers have to be to the point and backed up by facts.

    Wait an hour and it will say "Choose as best answer" under each answer in a blue rectangle, like the "Answer question" one.

    Any answer to a question that you feel is the best.

    It doesnt have to be the first one, or the longest one. Just the one the one that says it the best.
