Answer 5

Answer 6

I am unbiased user in selecting best answers.

Answer 7

Pretty much everyone is biased. When they ask a question, they are essentially looking for others to back up their claims or justify their position on an issue. Users who disagree, will never get a Best Answer nomination, even if their answers are logical and wel-researched.

For example, if I am convinced that Shoaib Akhtar's ban is unjust, then even if I ask for all opinions on why he was banned, and even if users point out his injuries, loss of form and bust-up with Mohd Asif as the reason why he didn't get a contract, which in turn is what he protested about and got banned for, it is likely I will select an answer that somehows twists the saga to make it appear that he has a perfect right to protest, even though he shot himself in the foot much earlier.

Answer 8

I am cause i don't ask questions

Answer 9

the best answerer gets the best answer for my questions..

Answer 10

Well, I choose the best answer based on content and helpfulness.

A more useful answer content wise from someone who calls me an idiot for not knowing the answer is very unlikely to get my attention, but if it has the information I need, the tone of the response is immaterial.

So if that counts as un-biased (which I think it does) then I'm un-biased. Or at least, I always STRIVE to be.

Answer 11

All users with over 3,000 pts are biased and that's a fact !!, and i'm no exception.

Montitude and CJ Randhawa are very fair when picking best answers, they always give it to the best answer and not the most famous user or there favourite user.

Like i said everyone can be biased, infact i have been called biase by people when choosing best answers !!!. Most users in the cricket section and elsewhere give the best answer to, the most famous user or there friends

Answer 12
