Posted as Assumed Answered

I have noticed a few posts that start off with Assumed Answered in the original post.  Don't know if the person checked the box by mistake, or a glitch in Jive.

Anyone else notice this?

    Curt,

    I saw two threads, with that "Assumed Answered" notation today. Both were older, and in the Premiere Elements forum. Both had two "Helpful Answers." Unfortunately, I did not make note of the threads, but that "Assumed Answered" notation caught my eye. I was trying to catch up on that forum, after having been gone for a week, and might, or might not, be able to locate them now, since I was reading, and answering about 100 other threads. If I do find them, I will post links.

    Hunt, keeping is eyes out for Assumed Answered threads now...

    It looks like the person who created a thread can mark it as Assumed Answered. They can even do this if there have not yet been any replies (going to ask Jive if that is as designed or a bug). Admins can also mark a thread as assumed answered (that’s been around since the Jive forums launched). What is new now is that Admins can also mark a specific reply as the answer or helpful.

    Adobe-Admin,

    Thank you for the input.

    That marking could well have been around for a bit, and I just never noticed it, until about the time that CurtY posted of it - had just observed it for MY first time, almost simultaneously.

    Never did find the two threads, where I saw it, but your explanation makes perfect sense - at least to me.

    Appreciated, as I learn something new every day!

    Assumed Answered is usually set by a forum host or administrator. Can you give links to threads that have this set with no replies?

    Thanks!

    Here is a post from  this morning.  When I looked at it it was labeled Assumed Answered.  http://forums.adobe.com/thread/930927?tstart=0

    I then posted a reply and the OP gave  correct answer mark, and the line changed to Answered.  So this post may not work for you.
