Cannot undo answer acceptance

Post by Mæstro » 2026-08-05, 23:53

On my Neopets Classic thread, I accidentally clicked accept this answer for a post when I meant to click the neighbouring quote in reply button. I recall there having been a button to undo this before, but no such button appears now. Whatever became of it? I do not want others misled into thinking the matter has been closed.

I think I fixed it for you - I had a button "Mark as unsolved" that I clicked, and the green checkmark seemed to go away.

Thank you! It has indeed gone away, so you can have this deliberate click of accept this answer in its stead. :)
Was it a deliberate choice to remove the toggle for users to unmark answers?

I don't know, I did not know there was such a button in the past, and this is the first I had seen of the moderator's "Mark as unsolved" button. Learned something new because of your question today, so thanks to you!
