Why Does This Show As Answered?

This topic

Has sent me to the brink of throwing away my entire system, yet my “Troubleshooting” thread is marked as “Answered”.

It clearly is not.

Shouldn’t the OP be the only one who can mark it as such? (Did I somehow mark it as such? I’ve never felt this issue is resolved...)

    Unless OP is actively trying to propagate bad info.

    What did I say that indicated that?

    Think it is their confusion over who marked the answer, it is supposed to be limited to the original poster.

    Given the forum software that “supposed” is really weak.

    I think the OP was a generic, for topic starter, not directed at you. If you look at the whole post in that light you might feel the same.

    Yeah, ordinarily I’d agree, but I’ve noticed a general side-ways level of snark has increased by about threefold on “help” sites...
