Yes and they eliminated the vote so only askers can pick BA with no time limit and only expiring if it has 0 answers after 7 days.

Everyone is since the early part of April when it went into effect. Only the asker can now choose BA, if they do it becomes top entry for the question, other entries are ranked by thumbs, question never resolve and are open forever, and you can answer years old questions if you want to.

Yup....Why would anyone think that the person asking the question would know more than the people answering, that's why they asked the question in the first place.
- How do you think about the answers? You can sign in to vote the answer.

Yes we all are.The voting has been removed.Your answers sit forever.Abandoned by the asker.Unless you delete them.That helps to save your best answer ratio.
