Today I am having so many issues with Steemit I just can't begin to list them all off to you guys. From being constantly with bandwidth exceeded lock outs due to low SP because of delegation to @steemitbc to constant logging out when I have my checkbox ticked to stay logged in. But now I will share with you something that I think the WHALES here might need concern. I been testing where my limits are for when I get locked out, I get it I am being locked out because the averaging price is dropping and I have too much delegated to my other account so I am on a feed the machine clause right now. But I just found out that when I upvote with low power its actually taking change off of whale posts instead of giving them anything.
Here take a look of it happening to my account in action here:
As you can see with closer inspection I am screwing over people with better payouts right now and I am not getting why. Whales please do not smash me on this one lol....was not my intention to take away but only to give because I need you beautiful souls on my side lol.
Here is what I know, its not due to the averaging price dipping and not refreshing. I know this due to the fact of testing and its on $1.00 throughout my tests on the average ticker over at steemnow. I know its not my weight because if I go to a minnow it gives and doesn't taketh away from them. This happens when your worth is around $200 or above on a post payout and no matter how stable your payout price is at the moment, all my upvotes takes of the top from higher payouts.
Steemit has been an utter disaster for me today, like to a point I want to punch my screen but with the crypto markets I would not be able to buy a replacement so I been doing a lot of inner breathing exercises here lol. CAN ANYONE PLEASE TELL ME SOMETHING ON WHAT THE F IS GOING ON AROUND HERE?
I am refraining from my account so I don't dip off upvotes on people till I am sure what is going on but my fiance's account as well started to exhibit this same behavior. If I did legitimately shave off a few cents on your posts, I promise once we are up I will swing by and make it right, I don't play like that and genuinely was just testing issues with my account and did not mean for that outcome.
~sflaherty
Follow me @sflaherty and I promise I won't rob you with upvotes killing your earnings lol
I believe its just a glitch and not actually taking away payouts on anyone but I will say this, that is a strange one to see lol. Seems lately all kinds of madness keeps happening. We just gotta remember that its still in BETA and its not a finished project yet...but none the less it is a headache lol
This happened to me earlier this week on one of @papa-pepper's posts. I upvoted and the price dropped 94 cents. I just assumed it was due to a market refresh of the steem price but now you have got me wondering.
I am really scratching my head today. I been locked out of my account 9 times today. This i figure is due to the delegating my SP to my other account and the averaging system dipping. 50 SP left on my account past the delegation so the minnows are about to have a huge headache coming. I did the math and in a few days the averaging system should dip to $0.70-0.64 if our bottom stays the same and the market doesn't spike up fast to save us from that low. That is going to wreck a lot of havoc on low SP accounts here if I am getting bandwidth exceeded issues due that.
Then I got an issue on all my accounts of being signed out constantly to not have my key work...had to struggle with that and just now finally got the checkbox to stay signed in to take. That I had an issue with last week and here she is again lol.
Now this. This issue is clearly not price related. I been testing it for over an hour and for the last hour the average price on steemnow is stuck on $1.00 flat throughout all my testing so me upvoting should not at all take anything away. Whales and minnows alike should be concerned with all this, either something is up on the dev side or we are having attacks or someone forgot to put the gerbil on the wheel in the server rooms lol. I am not needing this with all the market issues. I love crypto but when times like this hit I am so feeling bad I don't hold some fiat lol but I can't bring myself to do it
There is a lot of weird stuff going on it seem and you have been very good in your post about this, and how it is NOT due to the price feed/fluctuations.
I don't know man.
I just put up a post to motivate people, it has been a tough friggin week all over.
Have a good week buddy, I am past my 10 pm deadline EST again to be offline but I was out late dealing with something else.
So you think all of this is just server issues or something going on with the blockchain? I am finding through testing I am honestly getting locked out when the averaging price dips down and my voting power drops to $0.00 voting weight left...every time it hits there I am not able to do anything till some voting power goes up some to bring it around $0.01 ....probably picked a very bad time to delegate my SP to @steemitbc lol but I want to help the project out. Its no worries man I am in this for the long haul and issues happen. Markets are a mess, the Alphabay takedown kind of hit at the wrong time. Though I will say this, maybe we can finally move on without need for the dark web and recover only because good people now only back crypto lol...I know dreaming. Much love my brother. I will hang in there the best I can, I am sinking though lol...lord have mercy its getting scary
#BroHug back at you my friend. I am with sound mind that this poor guy will be someone someday in crypto lol....I just told a guy below that the whales better watch out because I plan to be on a road trip to the top and become that guy that sleeps on their couch that becomes the guest you can never get rid of lol. They might as well just let me rent a room in the old mansion because this guy is not staying in the minnow trailer park any longer lol. I am concerned only because I want this to prosper for all of us, so time to dive into the bugs happening, get it overhauled and lets please finally get out of BETA lol
Man that right there is what is getting on my nerves. Did you see my post the other day about that bot running around flagging everyone for simply upvoting on our own posts? That needs to be shut down, no bots should have the ability to flag nor should a user that just doesn't agree with you should be able to flag like you dealt with. This is supposed to be censorship free but yet everyone is running around treating this worse than even Facebook does on people.
We do have a huge serious issue in here with all the policing and finger pointing drama lately, I see it on almost every comment section. These people are centralized thinkers is the hugest issue. Whales, Dolphins, Minnows all types are in this decentralized system not realizing they are acting very centralized. I am free of that brainwashing and why I live and breath 100% crypto and only hold crypto since last November so I can kind of see it better now that I have trained my brain in a more decentralized manner.
It boils down to this, to be decentralized you do have to side with a little anarchy in the self governing way. So when someone polices another human being they are no different than the central banks out there or governments. In a decentralized society there is no need to get your panties in a bunch if someone else is doing wrong, you just don't support it and ignore it. I think the flag system sucks here. Honestly its quite simple....if you support something you UPVOTE and if you don't you don't push that UPVOTE button. That alone will be powerful enough to get those doing wrong to step up their game to do what is right because it hits them in the pocket.
Man I am quite disheartened that we got so many centralized brainwashed users in crypto now a days. That original movement to change the world for the better is seriously getting damaged. Censorship here sadly is user to user version of it and almost worst than any mainstream social media platform does in some cases.
Its simple to spot, a centralized mind is stuck on the pyramid of the governmental social structure. When someone oppresses another individual due to power over them, they are the enemy and a foot soldier to the centralized movement...its truly that simple to spot. Its not their fault but they need to dig in and deprogram themselves from a lifetime of brainwashing. So guys flagging for opinions are power hungry, sad creatures if you ask me.
On a final note, that is acting like a child, real men do not give a crap what others say if it goes against their belief. If a person truly believes in something then no other mans word will offend them because they are enlightened enough to not debate in their mind about words of opposition on a topic they have conviction about. I believe society has rewarded this bad behavior too much to keep a division between social interactions....and its won so far because here we are in crypto and yet everyone treats this like a centralized system.
@dollarvigilante aka @jeffberwick actually gets these points I pointed out above. Though I am not on a one to one basis with the guy, I do believe him and I are the types that see the system in a very outside manner due to the deprogramming we have both done in our minds and souls. He may seem to some like a guy just ranting and raving but he is actually to me very on point because sometimes when he speaks he points out the same very social structure issues I see. Centralized minds are all over the decentralized forum, they believe they got it figured out and on the decentralized side but until they fully bring to the table a deprogrammed mind they are seriously not doing any good for the movement. Not their fault they are brainwashed but guys like us that are decentralized down to the mind and spirit have to avoid them because that centralized input can be like a virus that can even reinfect a deprogrammed person in small doses. I think I am luckily born with a inner knowledge against the system and always been slightly guided towards this movement all my life. Its more a calling to me vs about the money, though I could use more money to get out there and voice what I know lol....but I am patient and underneath ready to pounce at any given time.
But it was missed like the other 20 before it lol. I am tanking buddy, seriously getting so bad on here I am about to have to kind of suck it up soon and take my mining on another coin to survive and pray this takes off again at some stage. Even my @steemitbc profile and project is getting way less engagement, seems people want all your help on Steemit but non supportive of the time you put in for them. Human nature I guess.
lol...I was thinking of giving the whales my bitcoin address like I am manual ransomware running around and extort them but I figured that kind of joke might not go over too well with the market issues lol. Hey you gotta laugh at the dumb stuff and enjoy the sun when it's bright outside.
I can not tell you what's going on but I've checked your votes on some of the posts you have shown in the video and I can confirm that you did not downvoted on any of those. Each 100% upvote of yours worth around 400M rshares.
So, you don't have to worry about the revenge of the whales! lol
Your experience is probably just another glitch on the steemit site added to the already long list of bugs lately...
Whew lol....I been so busy with my project over at SBC that I haven't had the time to check the steemd input yet so thank you for that so much lol. I figured it wasn't actually doing something but I was a little concerned that maybe it was ticking off earnings. I guess we are with BETA issues still lol. Thank you so much for checking more into that for me. I been so crazy busy my way I am having a struggle to dive too deep into which bug is doing what.
I do know this, that bandwidth exceeded mess due to the price average is a headache. I got that 9 times today but I get its due to delegating my SP to my other profile for my project. Kind of see coming more issues with that one because the price has yet to fully average down but I will roll with that one as positive as I can lol. I love Steemit but have to remind myself this is not a finished product sometimes.
Really do appreciate you checking into that for me and enlightening me what you found
On a funny note...I will save that video to show whales that they better watch out for me because i have super powers on Steemit to take any man down lol. JK....I honestly was worried I put a hurting on them, mainly because I love supporting good content not driving them down already in a dive down moment in the markets. Thanks again!!
lol...yea the whales had better watch out because I am road tripping up to the top and planning to crash on their couch and be that annoying guest that never leaves lol
My power is at 93.05 and my upvote is worth zero. I think my second vote today gave .01 but all the rest? Zero. I thought I had ten votes per day. My boyfriend kept getting logged out too.
Seems to be a lot of issues lately but it is still BETA. I was getting that bandwidth exceeded issue and locked out from using my account a lot yesterday. Been a lot of issues and I hope they put some fixes in Steemit soon
I seriously hope the devs come up with some major updates soon, this is getting a bit embarrassing.
There's so many bugs atm. Just when you figured out what's causing one bug another bug pops up lol :D
I'm guessing that the many bugs could also be a factor to Steemits problems with retaining its users.
I agree, maybe its time to pick a HF that works, plan it all out on paper then just go to town overhauling the system and kick this out of BETA finally lol. Its got even me sketchy, I am in here for the long term but when your mining in funds and you see constant lock outs, it signing you off, replies not showing up with alerts, and then this with upvotes taking money away...well sure it just looked like it did and not actually took anything away...it kind of makes you feel like you have change in a pocket with holes in it...that my friend is scary to think about if you keep diving money into your SP locked up for 13 weeks wallet. I have some faith in this place but I will not be stupid and blindly not take note of the constant bugs constantly happening either. Hopefully it will get corrected.
this is some weird shit going on lol... i'm not voting until this is fixed, don't want to be accidently taking away money by upvoting good posts!
You just upvote me and you will be just fine my love lol
lol see... my vote is worth zero, zilch, squat.
mine too but i still upvoted you....i guess we just live on love and say heck with upvotes lol
@sflaherty you got my upvote
@honey-pot was explaining that she had the same problems yesterday
I believe its just a glitch and not actually taking away payouts on anyone but I will say this, that is a strange one to see lol. Seems lately all kinds of madness keeps happening. We just gotta remember that its still in BETA and its not a finished project yet...but none the less it is a headache lol

No tech issues are going to take that away from us!!!

This needs to be a post.
Send it to me and the twitter when it is done.
It only needs a few sentences to generalize it, and boom -- nice post.
(:
Honestly.
Already have one on the terms of this actually, did it a few days ago:

But it was missed like the other 20 before it lol.

Even my @steemitbc profile and project is getting way less engagement, seems people want all your help on Steemit but non supportive of the time you put in for them. Human nature I guess.
I laughed, that was genius and honest fun there LOL
lol...I was thinking of giving the whales my bitcoin address like I am manual ransomware running around and extort them but I figured that kind of joke might not go over too well with the market issues lol. Hey you gotta laugh at the dumb stuff and enjoy the sun when it's bright outside.
Steve, maybe witness @neoxian > can help...
Going to take a look and see what they might know. Thanks for that

Could be that the rewards already went down on that post, and you saw the change when you upvoted.
