RE: My thoughts and analysis on steemit bandwidth problem and why it should be mostly left alone
I haven't spent any money, just time I would have spent elsewhere for nothing. there are a lot of FAQs and guides on the start page before you log in.
You were the one who wrote a article and posted it that said this:
I was locked out starting at around 8:00 AM from posting due to bandwidth and have been unable to post anything all day. Now it is like 6PM, I haven't checked for like an hour but it was still bad at like 4:30This has been happening every day for various lengths of time. It is getting incredibly frustrating because I can't do anything on Steemit.com for half the day. I understand that bandwidth is proportional so I have now powered up my STEEM power to triple what I had, which I realize is not shit relative to what other people have but instead of getting better it has gotten worse. It is allegedly in the realm of $300 at this point though and I am still not able to use the site for half the day. I can't imagine any website being successful that was unavailable half the day, much less one that I have put $300 into that locks me out for use during the day. They desperately need to rejigger how they are assigning the bandwidth,
I didn't literally put $300 of my money in, I had that much in account value at the time. And I haven't had the bandwidth problem in a while, and how much did I make from that post?
seven cents.
lol all profit ;) I think I made like $2 on the next rant about bandwidth though
wow, you'd better hurry and rush that into your retirement account.....
Sure it's not much now but when STEEM hits $10,000...
When that happens let me know I will commit to figuring out how to work the keys 24/7.
It's not steemit that wasn't unavailable. It's just you hitting your limit. If you delegate SP you can go for a whole year with half of what you pay for Netfilx a year. After the free month of Netflix, you don't ask how can this site succeed when everyone is blocked after the first month.
The difference is that the terms and the cost associated with those terms are upfront. Maybe I missed it somewhere in the Steemit terms and conditions that being on this site will only cost me half of what it'd cost me to be on Netflix for a year.
Read the whitepaper pages 18-24
https://steem.io/SteemWhitePaper.pdf
It pretty much describes everything. Whitepaper is the 2nd most important thing in any crypto project. There is a link to whitepaper and bluepaper in https://steemit.com/welcome page which you visit right after your first login.
I've read the white paper but I found that reading about some other dispute and someone recommended people should read it, curiously I did. I haven't read the new revised one. Anyway, fine print comes before sign up not after...legally anyway.
You are not the only one either that has complained. I just wait till it reloads.
