Remove "This Question is Possibly Answered " from forum pages

Please remove the statement, "This Question is Possibly Answered ", presently located at the top of forum pages. It is practically useless. When a question has been answered the poster will mark it as answered. When it hasn't, the poster wont. 

    This topic has been closed for replies.

    As a temporary solution, if you are running FireFox, you can use Stylish and/or GreaseMonkey to nuke a bunch of this stuff.

    See the FAQ entry on overwriting the forum styles.

    The best idea would be to get rid of the whole concept of "right" since the OP wouldn't know the "right" answer.  And while we are talking about junk forget about awarding points.

    And while we are talking about junk forget about awarding points.

    Absolutely. You can get points for stating the obvious and, on the other hand, do a long investigation leading to a nicely reasoned answer and get nothing.


    In other words they mean nothing.

    Well, I'm seeing the"This Question..." notice for this question, and I wonder how it got there. JJ's post triggered it? It's nowhere near of being an "answer", except for the fact that it was posted because of the OP;,,

    Something like this was on the Adobe Lab Lightroom Beta Forum. I don't remember there being any problem with them I miss labeled Answer that truly isn't should be able to be fixed by a Forum Host (once they get their privileges, again, if they don't already have them. Would just take a request to a Host to fix such a problem, which should occur infrequently, possibly depending on the forum.

    they need to remove the whole Bullsh!t system of letting nubes give out stars for answers to questions.

    Please give me a star for my answer I'm trying to get as many points as possible before they eliminate the silliness.

    When a question has been answered the poster will mark it as answered. When it hasn't, the poster wont. 

    But he might not know if it's the right one!
