Real World cost from the Hard Fork 2.whatever!

in hard-fork •  6 years ago 

I woke up today with enough RC by their numbers for 7 replies. In the real World (Not the HF universe) that really means that I can post three replies, IF I keep them short! I will pick up another three, or four for the rest of the day! I am doing more steemit on E-mail than on steem!

They have destroyed my account, I can not even reply to those who comment on my very limited (post HF) postings! So Now, I am apparently rude too, because I am forced to ignore people!

The fixes allow me to fight this raging fire with a tea cup that refills with an eighth inch water line.

I will try to use al my RC this week (NOT hard), and see where I place in the engagement league. That will let me know how life on Steemit is now, and give me long term!

Once I can get home and forward you some steem, things will get better, my friend. Hang in there!

Thanks my friend, but some of what you sent has hit, and jumped my scare that they use from 67 to 97. I have a little more RC! Might be able to make 7 posts more.

But I do appreciate it!

:)

I just found out that hebrewhousewife sent me 30 SBD voting weight. It has helped a lot, she really surprised me!

:)

Oh...lol...OK. Well, I didn't think I had successfully delegated, and I never had before. When I get home, I'll probably just give you a little SBD, because it's simpler.

Just have a safe trip! They have apparently changed the refresh rate from four days to one, so they are still trying to fix their mess.

I worry that they will reverse a bunch of this slowly, hoping that people don't notice the gradual limits.

But, I will not assign evil intent to them yet.

:)

I think the original intent of limiting the ability of newbies to transact or post was to drive out spammers and bots. I'm not sure how they are going to maintain that goal while "re-empowering" newbies, but anything is better than what we had right after adoption.

That was a problem, especially the bots. I thought the down vote flags, handled that well.

The bots were living large on volume, due to the 0.001 curation award. Remove that award, remove the bots.

You back home now?

No..not until Monday or Tuesday.

Hmmm...how did they remove that .001 award? Can no one now do that? Did they get rid of downvote flags?

No that is all intact, but if they had removed the 0.001 curation award, the bots would die. That is their source of income.

Bot 20,000 times a day, and you made $20....

This would have fixed the bot problem by simply removing their reward. It would not have damaged any real accounts, because it only removes pennies from them, not their actual income.

:D
