| May 21, 2018 at 10:22 | comment | added | Dan | Before posting to main Meta, I recommend checking the following meta question meta.stackexchange.com/q/261817/172297. It's not the exact thing, but it is a discussion about obsolete answers. | |

| Apr 26, 2018 at 14:11 | comment | added | Fabby | Yeah, and then we'll need all of the AU community to start voting as Meta.se is an angry crowd. That's why I posted the above here first before going to Meta.se... @Tim | |
| Apr 26, 2018 at 13:35 | comment | added | Tim | @Melebius I’ll hash it out in chat then post here for review and then transfer to a proposal on meta se! | |
| Apr 26, 2018 at 13:32 | comment | added | Tim | @Fabby this week is bad - but I will get back to you late next week I promise! | |
| Apr 26, 2018 at 12:54 | comment | added | Melebius | @Tim I totally agree with you and I’ve also thought about it before. Please consider converting your comment to an answer, so it can be voted and discussed more conveniently. | |
| Apr 22, 2018 at 14:55 | comment | added | Fabby | @Tim Ping me in chat: we have to have a brain-storming session. How are you BTW??? | |
| Apr 22, 2018 at 11:38 | comment | added | Tim | @vidarlo that’s quite possibly true, but my proposal needs to account for all the sites. On Stack Overflow they’re much more common. | |
| Apr 22, 2018 at 11:34 | comment | added | vidarlo | @tim On AU downvotes are rare. A downvoted accepted answer would be a pretty good indication that it's not the best. In addition many newcomers accept the first answers, even though it is not the best, or even a full answer. | |

| Apr 21, 2018 at 17:19 | comment | added | Tim | I've been meaning to write a long feature request on the main meta on this topic. My suggestion would be along the lines of "treat an accepted answer as an X% + Y boost" to the answer - probably 10% + 2. This would mean they would normally still be on top, but it would not be a huge challenge to overtake it. The 10% is for high scoring answers, the +2 is for low scoring answers (otherwise a +1 accepted answer can be overtaken by a +2 answer). I don't know how -ve scoring accepted answers would be treated. | |
