Why "Assumed Answered" when there are no replies?

Why do some posts appear marked as Assumed Answered when there have been no replies?

Photoshop for Beginners

If this is in error, is there any way of un-marking it?

    John, I am afraid that the answer to your original question is because "that's the way the Jive software works". As in many other cases.

    I struggle to believe that this is by design.

    Many questions will go unanswered if they are assumed answered for no reason.

    I think it is just a bug and needs to be looked at by the developers.  By posting here, I doubt anybody is working on this so it won't be fixed in the near future unless Maddison Murphy sees it and takes some positive action to report it.

    I have seen it a few times, too.

    I believe it is an unintentional marking by the OP, who would then be able to change it, as would a moderator, presumably.

    Why would the software even offer to set a question without any replies as "assumed answered"?

    And no, once it is set, it can't be undone from what I've seen.

    And no, once it is set, it can't be undone from what I've seen.

    That's my conclusion too.

    Leads me not to trust the green Answered icon.
