..Out Of Order Until Some Basic Rights Have Been 'Patched'

in #steemit5 years ago (edited)

I don't know about you, but after so many months, this is the first time SteemIt doesn't feel like 'home' anymore...

Sorry for the bad quality of the pic, but it was the best I could do at the moment.

(EDIT: Apparenyly the RC have been restored while I was asleep. That was definitely good news to wake up with...)

I could have added plenty more demands, but all I want to ask everyone is to not think with their wallets for a sec, and try to emphatize with plankton and redfish, and how they have been.muted for these last couple of days.

All it needs is a little common sense, so don't worry, your precious wallet is safe.

We're well on track to become a closed comunity, where only the people who have the money will thrive.

If you ask me, that's not the way to attract more users to the blockchain. Even worse... we're losing so many future Steemians with a lot to offer to this platform.

This is a ridiculous situation. If you don't get that, you need to take your head out of your wallet and take a look around to see how this all effects the smaller accounts.

For once, try to think it through, and prove you are just as wise as you want people think.

Wow who knew you had so much influence? My powers are at 100% But I am going to hurry and comment in case they go away again.
What a week it has been.

It must have happened at the same time I posted this, because I checked the bars right before I hit 'Publish'. I went to sleep immediately after, so I didn't find out up until now. My VM, however is still at 66%...

Yeah my votes are still building. I am just overjoyed to comment with such wild abandon. After having to count them out and be so stingy for a few days. Now it feels like a lavish even decadent spread of the lines of type.
I probably best be careful till I get a post out in case it eats up a lot.

Sheesh, I just looked at steemworld and my VP was Under 7% but now you got a pretty solid upvote, like it's near 100% charged LMAO... ;-)

Thank you very much appreciated. And thanks also for spreading the good news. Things are looking better already.

I probably should stay away from commenting on this stuff too much more. It's already been getting me in trouble. I'm with you though. I think everyone should be able to start without an investment and earn their way up. It takes work, but it can be done. I started with nothing and worked my tail off to get that first Steem so I could buy a share of SBI. Now more than 9 months later that share has paid off and I've grown a lot on here since then. Let's hope it changes back to where anyone can be successful here.

Should be better as soon as HF20 is working as intended. We are on patch #4 already LOL

0.20.4 just went into effect almost 3 hours ago....

So far it's working better. I've been able to comment and vote for the last 30-60 minutes and haven't had any issues. In fact, sometime after 20.4 went into effect, my resource credits jumped to 100% and they will only dip to 99.74% if I vote, then jump right back up to 100%. That's what I like to see!

Same here, as long as you have some SP to work with, RC depletion does not seem to be a problem. I did notice one thing when I was playing around yesterday.... my voting strength is much greater when applied to a post as opposed to a comment! For example, I upovote a comment at .01, then upvote that same post and they received twice as much (.02) in upvote value. I did that on several occasions and it all worked out the same. Interesting! My Mana dropped to around 76% and I stopped.

In trouble? For speaking you mind??? (Now I'm Curious, I'll catch up with you later on Discord if I can't find out what has happened)
That's not what SteemIt should be about...

I didn't get into too much trouble. It's not going to affect my day to day operations at all. We move on and don't worry about it. Cant' control other people, so just focus on our own actions. Right?

With your keen research abilities I would have thought you found out what is really going on... But I really only know from my witness contacts ;-) It is the system "stabilizing" and it is from HF20, we are already on 0.20.4 which is changing over as we speak. The new RC and Mana systems are "recovering" or "building up" or whatever they have to do to be fully functional. All I know for sure is that before I had never even "moved the needle" in using Bandwidth, but this is the exact opposite. I have had some problems as well, and I am over 6500 SP so IMO it's a horrible way to do things and the lil fishies must have it worse! Nearly everyone is affected in a negative, but temporary way... They said Orca and Whale levels may have no problems, but somehow I think they noticed.

so... Wake Up!

The fix was implemented about 3 hours ago.
I was told that it is best to "resume normal posting activities"
so the "system" can gauge your patterns. We shal lsee lol

I'm up! I'm up! :0)
I had a vague idea, but I suck at understanding technical things.
I went to sleep right after I posted this, and only just woke up, so I guess I've got a lot of catching up to do

😎

Very Good, I have a great admiration for your concern for the "Small Fry"... and the witnesses also have this concern. The HF20 architects have placed these new "controls" so as to reduce spammers and those who only wish to come in and drain the rewards pool, rape other's accounts and spam the F*** out of the system. The adjustment process is pretty much affecting all of us, except a few HUGE Accounts. This is not purposely done, it's just an unfortunate real-world effect of the way things are. Even folks at our level, (Dolphin) have had disruptions. And Dolphin is like top 5% so it pretty much has a negative impact across the board.

Good to see you Meike :)

I hope you are correct about interpreting the intended ramifications of this HF. I didn't quite get that when reading the technical write up, but then again, I'm not a coder or programmer. If this HF does prevent a large portion of the corrupt AI on this platform, things will be much better. Let's hope!

Thanks for the comment and the votes, but I gotta say you'd better rectify w/e is getting you flagged or this account is TOAST! Trust Me In This... 😆

I know exactly who is flagging me and why. It is berniesanders, who is also Abusereports, which by the way, has been shut down (nothing posted for two months). Why does he flag me... two reasons- just because he can and because he is a jerk! I (as well as others) called him out about his pilfering of the rewards pool (thousands $$) and rather than defend himself like a real man would, he just decided to play god and make me disappear. But I'm not going anywhere. I have powered down and now make my money on the exchange but I will stick around to see this asshat go down. Keep in mind Abusereports IS berniesanders, nextgencrypto (witness), ngc, thedelegator, thecyclist, iflagtrash, engagement, and more. Check out the votes on my post above... all one and the same asshat. He flags anyone and everyone who disagrees with him or who mentions his nefarious ways. He has been making money with abusereports raping the very rewards pool he claims to protect. He is the big cheater, the big scam! Open your eyes man, do a little digging (it doesn't take much) and share. This guy could likely single handedly destroy Steemit. He's doing a good job so far!

I'd say if you know what and why, fix it...

I was effectively muted myself. Wasn't too happy to learn that I couldn't post, comment nor even upvote. Now I'm far more cautious about posting anything. It's like, what's the point? I'm just going to be unable to post again very shortly anyway. If my stuff autoposts to Steemit now that I've given up trying to work on this platform, great, if not, oh well, faith is lost.

Prior I was able to make a few comments and boom, completely out of resource credits.

Yeah, I'm taking notice to that. Still posting less here than I was prior though. I've gotten more involved in other projects outside of Steemit due to the initial resource credit fiasco.

Some might disagree with me but this whole demise began with the introduction of Bots. And when the Bot's took over, Steemit would never be the same. The hf20 I think was meant to help overcome some of these problems, but it definitely was not a fix, and definitely hurt the minnow community at large. I was chased off by bullies months ago and just recently completed my powerdown and have remained silent, for the most part. Only now have I begun posting again but all my VP is gone. It looks like patches might fix the screw-up that was hf20, but until STINC gets a handle on getting Steemit back to what was intended, things just won't be the same. In the mean time, you can find me over on Stishit.net where I get treated fairly and fairly earn for my participation. For now, I will be patient on Steemit and trade my Steem on the open market.

I completely agree with what you way about Steem and STINC.
And how are things over at Stishit? (I can't get used to that namd, lol) It's about time I spend a little more time over there again. Somehow I never get to it. Will do soon!

Stishit has had some growing problems, but things seem to smoothing out. It is a growing platform, still in beta, and gains new members everyday. I'm past that name as I just enjoy being able to post something without someone disagreeing with a post or comment. Earning something just for logging in is a plus too! I'm sure it will keep evolving and get better as time goes on.

It's indeed a work in progress, they already have come a long way. But the navigation like it is now giving me a bit of a headache, probably because I was so used to way the old site looked and felt. Another reason to drop by more often :0)

A few navigation headaches are much easier to deal with than being flagged for no reason by berniesanders and his barrage of multiple personalities (accounts). He will single handedly take this platform down IMHO.

I agree... I constantly remind the guy wearing the big feathered headress over there that "Functionality" should be Priority One... next to esthetics of course. We're making progress!
