Bandwidth Limit Exceeded
What is the limit for bandwidth for Steemit, this website? My Steem Power (SP) was over 100 SP for my Steemit account. My reputation score was 50 REP or over 600 billion REP with over 60% voting power and my vested power was at 0.2M. Earlier, I was not able to post, upvote, resteem, comment, claim rewards, send money in the wallet, or do anything on STEEMIT DOT COM, this website here, http://Steemit.com.
Was not able to post after about 11 AM today until about 4 PM now. I'm able to post now until I reach another bandwidth limit for this website here, for Steemit. I'm in love with Steemit.
When will I reach the limit again?
Did I break the rules?
Did I do something bad?

I want to share this post for educational and historical purposes, mostly. Plus, I want to understand the rules more. I'm an American English Teacher in Vietnam right now. I'm 32 years old as of 2017, that is this year. I'm a blogger, filmmaker, and artist. I've been making movies since I was ten years old. I was born 1985 in Oregon. I'm not spam. I'm not an idiot. I've attended four colleges. I've worked with The Salvation Army and Word Of Life at camps and schools. I've been doing that since about 2004. I've been working in Vietnam since 2012.
I've been reading about my problem here on the internet. I've read some other posts about the bandwidth limit on Steemit. They said you need enough Steem Power (SP). That was not my problem as I had over 100 SP when I reached the bandwidth limit. Others said you reach the limit when you don't have enough vested power. When I reached the bandwidth limit, I had 0.2M vested power and over 60% voting power too. My REP was also at 50 REP for reputation points when I reached the bandwidth limit. I just want to know what the rules are.
My name is Joey Arnold or Joseph Scott Arnold or the Original Oatmeal or Joe Cool or Cool Kid of Forest Grove, Oregon (OR), USA. You can call me the Ojawall of the Arnold Attic. I'm writing all of this because I think the details serve as a time capsule. They also may help in SEO. What is SEO? I think it means seeability in search engines like Google, Yahoo, Bing, AOL, MSN, etc. I reached bandwidth limit today around 11 AM ICT, Saigon Vietnam Time, this Sunday, the 16th of July, 2017. I joined Steemit in or around the 18th of June 2017, this year, last month. I'm a writer. I'm not spam. I'm not a bad person. I do not think I was punished for being a bad person.
If I was punished for spam or something bad, please let me know.

You can Google me and my name and username to find me if you ever need to someday.
I'm also writing this in case I get blocked or whatever in the future.
I do not know if I did a bad thing on Steemit or not and I want to try to understand it more.
I want this post to be here to help others in understanding blockchains, the internet, Steemit, and more.
I will continue to help people on Steemit. I love this website. I am not spam.
I am like the Alex Jones, the Info Wars, of Steemit. We are the resistance and the truth.
I support smaller government and more freedoms and capitalism and everything for people.
I will continue to do what I can to help others both online and offline until i die.
I will share some photos below concerning this bandwidth situation.
I may write more about this later too.
For now, I think this is all I can say for now concerning the bandwidth thing.
I love Steemit. I bought Bitcoin.
I am not a crazy person. I make videos on YouTube.
I have been doing many things for many years.

I emailed Steemit, the website at this email: [email protected]
Your SP buys you bandwidth on the blockchain, I took a look at your profile and noticed that you made quite a few comments in a relatively short space of time.
Eventually you exceeded the bandwidth available to your account. This is built in to ensure that everyone has an opportunity to transact, if you want to post/comment more you will need more SP.
It's not a bug, it's a feature 😉
excellent explanation i didn't know what it meant myself following you now
Thanks for the information. Was wondering how this worked.
great
Damn, this happened earlier too me. I have another couple of questions though, Is there any way to check how close you are to the limit?
Also are post's/comments to all the Steemit sites included, dmaina etc?
This is the first info I've found about it, thanks everyone.
When you post here, the post goes to the Steem.IO blockchain platform root, the heart, the core, the center, and it is shared or mirrored or copied to the applications: for example: Steemit.com is an application: busy.org is an application. Etc... Etc....
There might be websites that gives you the status of your bandwidth but I forgot where it was.
Ah ok , thank you, @joeyarnoldvn, for explaining, I'll have a look see if I can find info.
This happened to me this morning too. I'm on Steemit 2 months and it hasn't happened before. I guess I'm just too much of a chatter-box. Happily, I was able to beg some Steem Power from my brother and I'm back.
I think there is a limit based on averages.
Yes, I just read the post by @rycharde. Can't say I understood much of it but it sounded just about convoluted enough to be true.
Lol, relax, I'm sure help will come, Superman will not fly over but others will :)
Never encountered this but I've noticed others "bugs"
@nutela, thanks for noticing. I think there must be limitations and/or bugs too. The limitations might be like bandwidth limits that means the limitations of the actual blockchain system and website and everything maybe if that is even possible. I was thinking that a normal website can have bandwidth problems since the website comes from one server. But I think a blockchain has many servers or what do they call it?
.
So, it might not be a physical hardware limitation. So, it might be a limitation in the program. Some rules are clear. You can only post every five minutes and comment every twenty seconds. However, this might be some kind of additional grand total limitation per hour or per month or something. Maybe there is something in the Steemit white papers. I'm interested in the exact rules and limitations.

Thanks for writing. I love Alex Jones of Info Wars.
I think I like Batman over Superman tho.
