"Warning: Service interruption -- head block age: 2017-09-26T05:11:21+00:00" why does it have to take over 8 hours?
This blockchain is so handicapped, after all this time and forks it still takes as much as it does.
steemd.com does not get outdated, is it a fault of the blockchain itself, or the blockchain explorer?
Stuff like this as often as it happens and for as long as they happen make this platform unreliable and barely usable.

Why does it happen?
Why does it still happen?
Why for so long and why so often?
Does the voting power recharge during such a downtime?

I wish I knew why does it happen.
I did not receive an answer here, and did not ask it elsewhere so far.
But it did happen dozens of times before.
The harm for me is that I can not review my own account's data in real time, but except from this, do not worry about your account.
Just do not share your passwords with no one and no internet based service, except from the posting key, which I know is used for automatic voting, and some services require it.
But the master password you should never use unless you want to change another password, and the active key should only be used for funds transfers.
It may pass in a few hours, because it already lasts for about 9 hours.

Welcome to STEEM.
I am still learning about it myself, and I keep finding that very few here know how it works.
To know how it works, one needs to read and comprehend the source code.
There are the white paper and the blue paper too, at least one of them is partially obsolete now.
