Hi,

It seems that sometimes questions get asked, and some very nice answers are being given (sometimes with quite some effort on the part of the answerers).

However, the asking party sometimes forgets to accept the question (happens especially with newbie users (<100 points)). 

Can't we have something that questions which have no live in them anymore, after X days auto accept (and give rep points to the top answer)?

EDIT: changed the close to accept, since this what I meant.

additional thoughts when reading the comments:

still it seems 'unfair' that good answers don't get the nice green check mark they deserve just because the original question answerer forgets about it. We might have then some reminder thingy where the original question asker is reminded after X days of nothing happening with his question that it is not yet accepted.
