Thumbs up. Vote arcange for witness.

Thank you for your support!

Oh man, this is brilliant. Please add badges for 'Staying Alive' then as well. I joined a month ago and my goal is to never die!

nice once @arcange bwwwahhahaa

ok, on a more serious note, is there any way to maybe set up a "gone fishing" or something so in case I go camping or something and don't have internet ( yes I like some remote places) or simply need to unplug for a while. I would hate to be a dead fish. Anyway, just a thought.
Also, may I use any of these badges or images as part of my signature?

Super Thanks for this, I think I might be hooked

Here a post on how to reuse awards in your own posts.

Thanks for this @arcange Much appreciated.

As a newbie, I am learning as I go. Your post is extremely enlightening as I was completely unaware of the importance of "staying alive". I really appreciate you for keeping Steem participants on our toes. The more one learns, the better he/she can become

hahahahahaha arcange thats hilarious , good one

Yes, same here. Sadly, some of my posts have died, but hey, it's a Steemit posting learning curve.

Super cool!

I support you with Full Power!

Cheers! from @thedamus

"Keep on swimming, swimming, swimming"

UpVoted and all the best to @steemitboard

would you please describe me,
I am doing lot of activity, but my fish is still looks dead.
I am not getting my first payout, since 9 days,

Definitely do not want to be a dead fish.... I need a drink of water just thinking that thought.

Living fish and water are very compatible!

Living Fish and Dolphins are also very compatible )

Affirmative!

very good to know . I am new here and trying to figure all of this out. I am having surgery at the end of the month so hopefully I can still keep my fish a live . I upvoted and now following :)

I have to ask, my SteemitBoard has shown me as a deadfish even though I have made 3 posts in the last 3 days, multiple comments, and up voting.

I will keep my consistency on STEEM

Nice @arcange

Thanks for the info. Have not (whew) received this reward,curiosity brought me here.

gracias, es magnifico

need to stay alive

Thanks for the info. It seems every time I hit a button I learn something new. Hope I can retain it. Got the span of a guppy.

I have a question. I believe I was inactive for a little bit after joining, probably for at least seven days. I took a little break because it was a little bit discouraging at first, as many people mention. But I've been back posting and upvoting again, but my steemitboard page still shows a dead fish. I'm wondering why that is.

@steemitboard is a bit overloaded with the high number of newcomers. The update was pending.
Anyway, I fixed it. You can refresh your browser to view your current status.

No problem. And thank you!

I tried refreshing in Chrome, but it still shows the dead fish. I'm not concerned about it, though, since perhaps it's just that way in my browser and for the time being. It is correct in Opera, though. I just thought I'd let you know that for the technical aspect.

And I also have been meaning to write you and say that I put together a guide page to make things easier for new Steemit users and included Steemitboard and your very helpful post about dead fish. I quoted from it so new users can know about the seven days' inactivity and keep it in mind, but also mentioned an inactive account can be brought back instantly:

https://steemit.com/introduceyourself/@doule/a-steemit-faq-especially-for-newbies-the-most-helpful-pages-start-here-and-get-up-to-speed-fast

:-( it's also happening with me.

No dead fish!

I post all the time now, and I am still a dead fish. It's totally bugging me!! I want to swim!

Fixed!

@steemitboard fixed like I'm still dead? I'm still dead!!

me to been dead even though active for 2 weeks driving me insane

This is a nice feature, love it!

Thanks! Have fun and Steem on!

Just a badge? Or account lockup? Or like what are the negatives? If someone is on a vacation for 15 days..then what?

Just a badge?

Yes

Or account lockup?

No

Or like what are the negatives?

Except people saying "ho, ho, he is a dead fish!", nothing that does really hurt

If someone is on a vacation for 15 days..then what?

He can publish a post about his holidays. Or hire a bot to vote for him. Or shorten his vacation ... One must be imaginative :)

Ho-ho-ho :D

"ho, ho, he is a dead fish!" loool

Thank you for the great information i just followed you and thank you for the badge as well and upvoted as well, I just wanna know how can resteem it but I'm posting this on my story so spread awareness...

Does it count how many times you've 'died'?

No, but it could be a nice feature to add XD
Thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks are happily accepted in the standard steemit currencies of upvotes & resteems 😀

I love the board though. I constantly have a tab with it open.

Wow, a fan!! You might deserve a special award for this!

Dunno how that would track lol.
But seriously, adding achievements was a great idea.

I don't want to be buried "at sea". Besides, I wouldn't fit down the drain ;)

I dont know how to set up my badge to my post? Aww heck, I'm so braindead!!! Anyways upvoted you

really useful article

Except people saying "ho, ho, he is a dead fish!", nothing that does really hurt
Ha ha ha, great. I'm a frog and can turn into a dead fish! Seemit is a big surprise bag.

And to bring you back alive, not a magic wand but a kissing princess ;)

I love to be kissed by princesses. Ah, you know it anyway…

Great! Unfortunally she is too young.

So now I know what the steemitboard do. Wondering what those dead fishes were about.

@arcange I chedked it's 1 year old post but it still helping all. I just checked my status, it shows dead fish but I am active here, posting, commenting and upvoting then why I am dead fish. Is there any other thing that I have to consider ? Also I posted 24 hours ago and comments and upvoted on many post still it shows deadfish. Sorry if I have asked you silly question.

  ·  8 years ago (edited)

Thanks for the heads up. I'm new to Steemit so this was helpful. Will follow:)

Thanks!

Hi, I just joined yesterday and I'm not sure how to resteem, can you help me out please

Im still here alive and kicking

Thanks for explanation, lots to learn on this platform @arcange

This page is awesome! I have made up my mind to be alive here @ Steemit. God helping me, i won't let myself, Steemit family and friends down. Gods saving power must reach nations and message of hope to the people. They will know the way to be saved and to stay safe. Thanks Steemit for such an opportunity given to me.

Yes this is a nice clever little package indeed ) well done @arange !! Upvoted and voted as one of my witnesses )

Thank you so much for your support! Really appreciated!

I would like to be the first person to follow

upvote me thanks

Wow... I feel bad, I just posted yesterday after 30 days lol;;; I hope to recover my position or something like that

Hi arcange, sorry if this is not the place to ask this question, but it sounds like you will know the answer.

There are losts of annoying posts on Steemit, such as people posting affiliate links, or simply seeking to be upvoted. How should I deal with these?

Untung saja saya sempat membaca postingan ini, terima kasih sudah mengingatkan (y)

Hi! I've made over 100 posts, been posting 4 per day for a couple weeks and I'm still a dead fish, have always been a dead fish. How do I come alive? Thanks!

As a newbie am happy to be here and i always look foward to seeing your post because it really enlightens me

güzel

Check!

Good to know ! :)

please follow and up vote me @fakirafaruk

Thank you for a informative post.

Sadly i am under 50% voting power now, and as far as i understand i will punish my self if i give a upvote now...

So i can only support your post with my comment.

Would I be correct to think that we are all dead fish our first 7 days before the reporting on the account starts?

That's not correct. You will only be a dead fish at the very beginning if you create your account, then wait 7 days before doing ANY interaction (upvote, post or comment).

I really like this idea. haha...Very innovative!

Thank you and have fun =)

Creating a reason for people to leave the system? A little "Big Brother" maybe? Just thinking you will be regretting this. Especially the tight demand of days between activity. Jus Sayin.

Do not take it too seriously. It is just for fun and it does not hurt at all.
If you ever turn into a dead fish, just come back, make a vote and tadaaaa, you back alive.
For someone "active", having a look at your account once a week does not look insurmountable to me ... but I might be wrong...
Thanks for giving just one opinion ;)

Got it ......... You're resteemed ;)

This is not true. I'm the most active dead fish in history.

Funny!

I think I was a dead fish for the last 3 or 4 months lol. I have a question, if I have Steemvoter working and I'm not online steem during a week, am I going to be dead anyway?

so how long did it take to get back to red?

I know, this post is old, but... steemitboard doesn't work for me and I don't know why :/ I'm a dead fish since my registration, although I'm daily active since my registration. Is there a proposed solution or anything else I can do?

Bueno... la idea no sería morir, para mi es grato compartir ideas, opiniones, experiencias, etc., pero estoy en un proceso de adaptación a este sistema que se me dificulta como manejar, ya que no soy experta en la pagina, la veo complicada si la comparamos con facebook o twitter, pero ahí vamos aprendiendo cada día

It says my fish is dead even though I am active.

yeah 2 weeks in and i am still dead how about ?

Ah ha ha ha ... I totally forgot about the "dead fish award"! Thank you for that crucial reminder

Thank you very much for all of this. It's nice to know what the rules are.

Hi @arcange, why did I transform to be dead fish meanwhile I am always active? Can you check my account? Thank you.

But that's not true, dear @arcange, I am incredibly active since I started posting on Steemit.
I suppose that the Steemit Board regards me as a dead fish because my account was opened in August but I started writing in December! That's the only explanation.

Perform one of the three operation described above, and you will be revived and able to shine again in front of everybody.
That doesn't work!

In spite of being a very active member of the community, I remain dead. That's sad. Big tears! Regards from Austria!

Hello friend @arcange blessings, I have many doubts about inactivity or dead fish, I have about two weeks in the community of Steemit, on my first day I made my first posts, comment, etc and I have always been an inactive fish, They have granted rewards but inactive contunio. please help.

hello i have a problem! some how i am a dead fish and i don´t know why im active all the time please help! @experimentel I am still new on steemit and learning and i never want to be dead on this awesome platform. make me alive again!
