RE: Steemvoter Pro Tips : Here's a Video Explaining Steemvoter and What it Can Do For You!
Hmmm, I'm glad I stopped to have a look at the video first and saw the comments below. I see many are not answered, especially the one which asks how to cancel votes set up through you (even if the answer is OBVIOUS to you, it does NOT mean it is obvious to everyone, so this looks real bad).
Not encouraging - and I am fed up of talk only. So, I'll try the free offer, that is all.
Hi @arthur.grafo, most of those issues were resolved in our Discord channel. Do you still need assistance in cancelling vote rules? For real-time support please visit https://discord.buildteam.io, you can also reply directly to me here and I will assist.
Thank you for replying.
I do not use Discord - and never will again. I live in S Africa and our electricity gets switched off 2 times a day, for about 4 hours each time. This means, each time I get back on the web, my IP has changed. Discord had me register, wanting my real name and email. Fine, I was reassured they are safe and gave it to them.
Next time I tried to go back to talk to someone, I was told I may not login because my IP number has changed. My IP? What has that got to do with anything? I know many who sit for hours at various coffee shops because they get a free connection, so not everybody keeps the same IP all the time. But more importantly, I had heard that both they and Telegram sell our info (as google does) and this seems to be pretty good evidence that it is true. whichmeans, I refuse to use either.
The next point that troubled me about your service. I went to your FAQ and saw that you answered a question about those who complain they have problems logging in and your advice was, switch off your anti-tracking and ad addons and allow cookies.
I am not willing to do that just for the 'convenience' of your site doing my upvoting for me (just as I have always refused to use FB, google, yahoo, twitter and so on. Conveniece is not important, safety and some degree of anonymity is). I made the mistake with Discord, but I only allow myself one such mistake every five years... so I'm hoping I've made my last one, since I am in my second half of my seventies.
Hi Arthur, I am from SA myself, ex-Durbanite but now an expat. The electricity issue there is crazy, my family back there are all affected by it.
Which Steemvoter are you using? The old Steemvoter.com or the new https://beta.steemvoter.com?
We definitely are not like any of the other services you have encountered and have no use for your personal data. If you are using the new Steemvoter, ad blockers do block the login as this is javascript based, same happens on Brave with the shield. Both versions of Steemvoter are confirmed to work on Google Chrome.
I'm still not 100% sure what your requirement is, are you battling to login or are you needing to cancel your service/voting rules?
There is much we could say and laugh about, but I'll admit that the few times I've been in Durban, I've enjoyed being there. For instance, I flew down to buy a 2nd hand car, saw it, realised what is happening, so I quietly talked to the police and met the man again. they were caught for possessing a stolen vehicle, so the police paid for me to fly down again. I warned them I am not good at identifying faces....and as I'd feared, I turned out to be a dud of a witness. I did not even have the pleasureo of saying, hey, I did a good deed, the owner got back his car (it was the 3rd time it had been stolen), for the insurance had already paid him out...so it was auctioned to some other kind of crooks.
:)
@crypto.piotr asked me to check you and to set an upvote in support of a group he is using to help others. I have already made good there, giving roughly 10 times what my upvote is per week...so, no worries. Having been brought to thinking about it, I had thought it would be nice to arrange two or three upvotes for those I vote for every day, but now I'm okay with not doing it, otherwise I would become more lax about reading and commenting on their posts...whether they post once or four times a day. What I enjoy about Steemit is the interaction and meeting people.
I have nothing against what you offer, I actually find it can lead to ridiculous situations - someone from SA put me on a bot or whatever and I get upvoted for all my posts...but he stopped using steemit many months ago. I do not benefit, it just makes it look good, as if many like my posts, for he has set his upvote to 2%, which is always worth zero.
Well, if anyone asks about how they can do auto voting, I'll give them your details - and thanks for taking the trouble.
Wow that is a crazy story about Durban, yeah there are crazy things that happen there, I've seen my fair share of crime and burglary, a few people were murdered in my area too, SA has just gone downhill.
I'm so glad everything is sorted with you and should you have more issues please don't hesitate to contact me again.
Stay safe!
