Hard Lessons Learned by a Newbie in steemit

in #steemsilvergold8 years ago (edited)

My life is full of hard lessons learned. Hard because they are results of mistakes made.

It is very much like my still-young-life in steemit!

My problem is...

Or perhaps...

I am sure my mentors in steemit will say...



It has only been 36 days since I started
participating actively in steemit.

  • I posted quality articles on my blog DAILY.
  • I commented on as many people's posts to the greatest extent possible.
  • I responded to comments left on my blog posts.

    And I upvoted,

    and upvoted,

    and upvoted,

    and upvoted,

    and upvoted,
    and upvoted

    ...until I lost 75% of my voting power!!!!



    Now I have to face the real consequences of my mistakes....




    .. and not for 3 or 4 days, anyway.


    Oh, well... the important thing is...

... mess for sure!

hehehehe i have done the same thing ;)

and i couldn't get out of it!!!! because i kept upvoting!!!

but.... then came busy.org ;)

do you know about this magical place??? hehehehe it gives you the voting slider BEFORE you become a minnow ;)

USE IT. it will help you get back up to where you need to be!!! :)

are you on discord?

Please.... please.... please teach me!!! For now, let me check it out. I am so glad you came by., As you can tell... I am so frustrated out of my wits!
And yes, I am on Discord with steemsugars.

U can check ur voting power in here:
steemd.com/@username

Thanks, my friend!

Anything else??? Ask away on steemsugars discord..there's loads of us there. Lola.Imma

Dear friend, I appreciate you very much. Perhaps we can talk in private on steemsugars sometime. I can always use some help! Until then... have a great week, Lola.Imma.

Bummer when you over vote! I usually have to take 1 day off a week. How's your bandwidth doing? Your posts have been great! I enjoyed them all.

The thing is, it is a hard platform to learn, unless someone takes you under their wing... but pretty much one is on his/her own. Bandwidth, you say? Another term.... So... Let me check... k, it is at 99.4% and I dunno what that means. I am finding some new friends, who are helpful... and I am so grateful. Frustrating, for sure. Thanks for letting me vent.

we had that problem and then we delegated some of our steem to ourselves and not sure how it all works but no more upvoting issues found a good blog about it will share the link if we can find it again lol

I have a Wing, you have not reached out yet. "You Know my Name Look Up the Number"

Don't even worry about it. I ran mine down to around 14% once. It happens. Once you start using Busy.org or get to 500 SP, you'll have that slider bar, so you can manage your VP better. In the meantime, just have a good time. :)

WIll do, as suggested by @dreemsteem and you! Thanks for the encouragement.

That is not fun. Been there 😢 Its ok, just keep the awesome posts! I love reading them every day 💗 See you tomorrow SSFL👊

Thanks for the encouragement, and I shall see you tomorrow. Have a restful evening SSFL👊

That was total awesome 😂. Thanks for the laughs. 👍🏻

I am glad someone is laughing, LOL!!! Thank you, my dear friend. I Shall see you again!

look at how much support you have in only 34 days??? hehehehe you're doing GREAT!!! :)

Thank you for your continued support of SteemSilverGold

The voting thing sucks, losing bandwidth is worse. Your SP is high enough that you should be safe from that debacle. When you lose bandwidth you can’t post or comment or anything.

I would upvote your post but I have no vote power. 😉😂 💕

"No vote power" means zero or below a certain level?

In this case it was a joke, but yes my votes are worth $0.00 and steemit allows you to give 10 votes each day at 100% power and I have depleted that too! 😂

When you have over 500 SP you apparently get a slider so you can give more votes at lower power. I am not making the most sense. ☺️

Hi. I spent much time on learning all tips and tricks as I was new from YouTube. I use steemnow a lot and beloww is your situation you can see yourself as well using that site: It gives your power% , the upvotes and the earnings and pending votes all in one screen.

Once you start buying upvotes from bots steembottracker is the tool here to check you must be extra carefull as some will cost you a lot and some can earn you money and give you visability as well. Gla dto help in time

Same terrible habit of over extending bandwidth. I should just dump the rest of my Bitcoin for Steem and some real powering up.
