I noticed alot of people are posting about their unresolved discussions. I have a few, but that's only because I just posted them. How long do you normally wait before nominating the best response?

If the responses keep on coming, I wait at least two weeks, but if a few days pass and I don't get any new responses, I select a "best response"

I don't think that there is a certain amount of time that needs to be waited, but I think that when you are reading your responses, one of them may stand out and catch your eye and that is the one that I would nominate as the best response. That's just my opinion though.

Yep, I would also try to wait a week, if I even post about them at all. Most times I forget and just try to move on to new discussions, Maybe that is not the right thing to do as I also forget to mark best responses and give ratings. Sorry my answer is likely not very helpful, but just thought I'd also mention that my unanswered discussions, I've noticed, are sometimes answered after a week and sometimes two. Not all members likely visit every day, so I would give them some time to catch up when they do get around to visiting.

I wait a week and then I will go through and mark best responses. That gives a ample amount of people to respond if they are going to.

A couple of weeks after started, thou I never had many responses. In case a still responses dripping in I wait a little more until nothing more i added and yet sometimes I get a reply after.
