What the Fork?!!!
![fork.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmX5VaxgNGwTGwdMgahSG4VfnTiz2i56fTYJCgpNx5rtUZ/fork.jpg)
I don't really understand WHAT THE "FORK" is HARDFORK, no matter how many posts I read to gain knowledge on the matter. Apparently, with the recent updates on Steemit, the commenting rewards will change, also commenting uses up the RC (again, whatever that means).
I used to reply on some posts and exchange comments with the author, which has helped me as a new user to connect and engage with other Steemit users, without having to worry about the RC status, or how many comments I can make within the day, or reply to the comments straight away. Now, all of that will change. It's like there's no freedom at all. Unless your SP is really high, then you have no "value" to the community. (But I could be wrong in my assumption.)
What I think will happen to me is that:
I can no longer do multiply replies to @insideoutlet's What is It game... as commenting will use up my RC.
Nor interact with the whole Banana Collective (@bananamemos) through comments... as it will use up my RC.
Nor reply to someone's post by writing a poem instead (which I really miss doing, for example, I had fun exchanging poems with @gumegxgolgom or Havana Bananamon's haikus). Here are a few examples:
My response to @gumegxgolgom's post
How many times do I have to tell you
For this person, stop wasting your time and breath
Spend your time searching for a love that's true
Otherwise, your heart will find its death.
I guess you just want to torment yourself
Keep believing that your love will ever be reciprocated
Maybe in time she will find herself
Trapped in your world full of hatred.
Then, when @gentlebot upvoted that comment, I replied with a poem, too:
Oh thank you @gentlebot.
For reading and for the upvote
I didn't mean to be seen
I just wrote my poem because I am keen.
The thing is my friend here
He is far yet seems so near
When we connect through our words
That are more powerful than swords.
Also, I really like @intellihandling's latest post Steemit after HF20 atomic bomb because I share the same sentiments. However, instead of commenting on the post, I just thought, I'd write this post. I just want to say to @intellihandling that I agree with your observation. There is somewhat social stratification existing on Steemit, where after HF20 update it has become more favourable to the "rich club" or the VIP.
Hi @evlachsblog,
I'm sorry to hear that your commenting will be limited as a result of the hard fork. I enjoy you comments on @bananamemos. I don't know if this will help, but I delegated 150 SP to your account.
Another option you may want to consider is Weku, it is a Steemit clone, I have been using the last few days. There are a number of people from Steemit have created accounts there. I haven't seen @bananamemos over here, yet.
here is a link to sign up. For purposes of full disclosure, I get some sort of referral bonus if you use the link. I'm not sure exactly what the bonus is.

Good luck. Sorry, I didn't upvote the post, I'm letting my VP restore, so I can manage my votes again.
Oh, thank you, @emergehealthier. I woke up and checked Steemit, and I was surprised to see a comment on my recent post. I really appreciate the help and love! I was told by @davemccoy that they seemed to have fixed the issue. So I really do hope Steemit is back to the way it was and better.
I signed up using that link, and I am waiting for the confirmation email so I can complete my registration. I still haven't received it, and it's over 15 minutes now. Is it normal?
Thanks again!
Did you check your the junk or spam folder in your e-mail? That was where I found my confirmation.
Yes, I did. It's not there. I don't know if I have to wait for a few hours. But it shouldn't take that long, should it? Anyway, I'll keep checking my mail. Will you be able to get a confirmation if your referral has been completed?
Try to register again. I recall not getting the first e-mail, so I registered again with the same name and it went through.
They had issues with a server being down. Try to register again.
Thank you, I will try tonight as I am currently on a road trip back from Victoria to South Australia.
Here is the link.

Hi @emergehealthier, can you please send a new link? It seems like that link doesn't work. Thank you. Sorry for the trouble.
Here is the link, I posted it under the wrong reply at first.

It still hasn't worked. I have been checking my email, checked the spam folder too, but the confirmation email which I'm meant to receive upon initial registration is not there. :-(
Try signing up without the refferal http://deals.weku.io
They allow duel posting as long as you say it was originally post and link it.
I'm going to start duel posting, soon.
