Earlier, I was told that after a month or so, if a question does not have a BA selected, then the moderators will select it. This was told to me in my Auto-BA suggestion. There are questions without BA such as:

  1. http://pokemondb.net/pokebase/299/which-is-better-gallade-or-gardevoir
  2. http://pokemondb.net/pokebase/686/where-can-i-get-a-2nd-moon-stone-in-pokemon-ruby

These are the oldest ones without BA. Why do they not have BA?

These were asked over a month ago:

  1. http://pokemondb.net/pokebase/90540/is-this-a-bad-way-to-use-shuckle
  2. http://pokemondb.net/pokebase/90529/can-recruit-more-pokemon-pokemon-mystery-dungeon-explorers
  3. http://pokemondb.net/pokebase/90451/how-exactly-do-you-get-pokedex3d

  5. http://pokemondb.net/pokebase/90383/female-player-female-starter-pokemon

I can list more if this isn't proof enough.

In fairness, a lot of these answers have a ton of upvotes, when a BA is just 2 points. Isn't that good enough?
BA is 20 points
I know I've gotten 2 up votes, which is the BA equivalent, but just saying, here is another.

Best answer

Moderators can select best answer if a long time has passed (at least a month) and the question has a clear answer that is better.

So for example, on #299 both answers were given 5 votes. And on #686 honestly the answer is pretty awful (terrible English and not a definite answer). It shouldn't have 3 upvotes let along BA.
