in thread Is there an option to see the non answered questions?

Hello GotToBTru,

I would define unanswered as a question that it stayed there for more than 24 hours without been answered. Either because it is too "difficult" and by difficult I mean the answer is not straight forward. Some times I pick up questions that mention modules that I have never heard of or ways to use Perl that I would not even imagine.

I know that eventually all questions will get answered, because almost every author that has written a CPAN module will probably looking at this site also.

But I know that when someone has spend a lot of time trying so hard to find a solution to a complicated problem and at the end he can not figure it out no matter what. These questions is not something like use this hash, or this module in this way and it is done, it is more complicated.

So I was wondering if the site had a special option to choose/view faster questions that have not got a reply more than "k" hours.

Again thank you for your time and effort reading and replying to my question.

    I don't believe there is a way to get this site to provide you with such a list, but you could certainly inspect the currently displayed topics yourself. This would involve looking at the XML.

    I would say based on my observation that very few posts get no responses here, but I am sure it does happen. Taking this discussion here as an example, you did get a response .. but what I typed was far from an answer!
