Reminder or a way to admins to mark old threads

Hi,

I see many posts are left without marking them as answers. There should be a provision to admin or few users to mark old posts as answers for the most appropriate ones.

Regards,
Eshwar

I really appreciate the suggestion @MalleswarReddy and @pituach. However, that is not sustainable. Also, administrators are not experts on all Microsoft products, so we cannot assess whether the answer is correct or not.

I want to mention that just because an answer is not marked as accepted, it does mean that the answer is not valid. Users can vote on the question if it helped them solve their problem, even if the original asker never comes back to mark it as the right one.

We are looking at ways to incentivize the original posters to come back to mark the answer and make it easier for them to take that action. We think that is a much healthier and sustainable way than non-experts marking answers as correct.
