Update:
Still no ETA on the workaround. Will update as soon as it happens.
Will be looking into trailing registered users as soon as VP recharges or a workaround for the database can be done.
There was an issue with the hosting provider the other day and now it seems the database services like SteemData that has been going through a database upgrade and one of the fallbacks was SteemSQL which recently changed to a paid subscription service.
So until a workaround has been made, the bot will be down. Don't know how long that will be but just check back on this blog to find out if it's back online. In the meantime, will be thinking of an alternative for the downtime.
When the bot comes back online and you are trying to *upvote and get the message that it's restricted to registered users, just type *register YOUR_STEEM_ACCOUNT again and you should be able to re-register without sending another memo. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Note: There was a recent database update to the Cosgrove framework and caused a little hiccup with registering from @Swagger's end. It should be fixed now so if you have already sent the memo code and was unable to register, wait a couple minutes and type the *register YOUR_STEEM_ACCOUNT command again and you should be able to register.
Due to increased usage, @Swagger will no longer trail banjo. This was a lot sooner than expected but this is to maintain vote power as much as possible.

Q&A
Can I use it to vote for other's posts?
Yes
Can I use it to vote for comments?
No
Is there a limit or wait time to use this bot?
No. However, the post that is being voted on has to be 20 minutes old or older. There is also a "cool-down" period if you are spamming upvotes for posts so many times within a couple minutes.
Why did I not get a response or an upvote?
The bot can be down for maintenance, updates, and node issues. Just have a little patience and things should be back to normal shortly.
Why do I have to send 0.001 STEEM or 0.001 SBD to the bot to register?
This is the minimum amount of transfer that can be broadcasted over the Steem blockchain. This is to verify that you are in fact the owner of the Steem account you are registering with to associate it with your Discord account.
The @swagger account currently doesn't have much SP. It will be powered up over time.
Donations and delegations to @swagger are welcome to help others earn some rewards.
This bot is currently being developed and maintained by @bitcoinparadise. It's written in Ruby and uses Radiator to access the blockchain. Originally developed by @ inertia using the Cosgrove framework.
