#MINNOWBOOTCAMP GUIDE for collecting "missed votes" with community voter bots! 😀 😁
I have been getting a lot of complaints lately of missed votes. The service I use is very reliable, but it was down for a short time recently. Could have been an upgrade, outage or who knows what. But I got more "where's my vote" than ever, so I decided to make this here "PSA" for my group. Feel free to link to it, re-Steem or whatever, we have a huge influx of new users and this needs to be common knowledge. At least for anyone in a community that uses any type of automated voting services/bots! 😎
IF YOU THINK (or know) YOUR VOTE WAS SKIPPED/MISSED/DELETED or w/e...
Try these steps:
- Check to see if enough time has elapsed since your last vote. The service I use has a non-adjustable timer, it is 24 hours and that means 24 HOURS!... not 23 hours and 59 minutes. So make sure your wait time has elapsed.
- ONCE the 24 hours has been verified, either by waiting or that is was already elapsed, perform what I call the "MINOR EDIT TRICK"
This is very simple, just fix a typo, add some info, a space, a blank line, just something to "edit" the post even if it is already Perfect, and it rarely ever is ;) This will trigger the blockchain to send the post out as a new post, but all who have voted before will not be affected. The "skipped" vote is usually fixed with this trick 99.9% of the time. I have used it with every community bot I have ever been associated with, and it WORKS. - If that does not work, check the web page or Discord of the auto-voter service, such as Steem Auto, Steem Dunk, Streemian (if anyone still uses that) or whatever it is. Some are privately operated with code hosted on a server, directly by the group in question. I know the 2 bots associated with #steemsilvergold are privately hosted.
- If all the above fails, contact the operator (ME) in their respective Discord. In my case, #minnowbootcamp
I can then see if there is a problem on my end. But I am the "last resort" NOT THE FIRST!!! 😛 😜 😝 - PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE!!! Do not wait until a post has been bumped down your blog by newer posts, I will NOT go back and manually vote anything that was missed because you were not watching, and a few days go by. This does not actually work very well anyway, because it resets the 24 hour timer, (so your next post's vote will be delayed) and I have literally hundreds of Boot Campers to tend to. So keep on top of it and problems will be minimized!

There is always a hiccup sometimes. It will always work out! Just keep doing what you are doing.
What's one vote on a men's life.
Almost Nothing... but what is a Penny's worth of Bitcoin lost in 2009???

Double-post, double Votes! Thanks for hosting my beloved sonny-boy ;)
I am going to delete one of them I was unaware of it. It gave me a transaction failure. Not sure what to do!
Happens to me a lot! 😎
Was not intentional believe me
Said transaction error. Sorry!
NO!!! Leave it up, or the vote will be wasted!!!
😬 😰 😱
I am fine with it, Mike!!! 😎
I'm constantly editing my posts, all the way up to the last day, sometimes... And I have noticed an unexpected up-vote from time to time... Usually soon after I edit... Thanks for the information...
Same Here, which is a Nice Treat!
