Question

"Unanswering" a question?

Jan 8, 2014 10:29AM PST

Hi!

I just wanted to know if there is away to "unresolving" a question? I had my trackpad activated and I stumbled accidentally on the "this post answers my question" button and now I can't reverse it. Is there a way to do it?

Thanks!

Make another post in the same thread explaining you accidentally hit the wrong button?

Start another thread asking the same question? (may have to rephrase the question to bypass the "this is a duplicate post" filter).

Isn't there a way for moderators to change it' It would be convenient if the user who asks the question could undo it, to be honest...

No.

The only tool I have is that I could delete the marked answer which often can really screw up a thread. I've even heard the man behind the curtain can't change it.
