Bandwidth limit exceeded. Please wait to transact or power up STEEM.

in steemit •  7 years ago 

Well...
At the beginning, a little over a week ago, I was wondering if I can be here, post, comment, just be who & how I am, without having to pay attention to any game rules, and then, today, I got this message:
anibas bandwidth limit exceeded. Please wait to transact or power up STEEM.

I guess my 4 comments in the last 24 hours "broke it".

Anyway, this is the reason I suddenly cannot post any comments.
I am not sure if this affects, or will affect original posts as well.

It should be all fine once you get your first payout in a few days.
Check this article on the bandwidth: https://steemit.com/steemit/@simonjay/steem-bandwidth-remaining-bar-explained-26-9-2017

Update:
I see you've already got your first payout... weird.

Anyway, here is where you can see your remaining bandwidth and other details of your account:

One more thing: forget the savings! Go to the internal market and trade your SBD to Steem. You can then use it to power up.

Yes, I got my first and second payout, but I hadn't yet transferred anything to savings.
Now I transferred 5 steem dollars to savings, so.. if it lets me post this comment, then I suppose that takes care of that.
And, if that is the case, then this could be helpful to some other newbie too... hopefully.
PS: Thanks!

strange, this never happened to me....?!?!? Anyway, happy to know you are here too! :)

Yes, good to see so many familiar faces! :)

Ooooooooooooooo you broke it...
