My voting power got really low. What can I say, I like to upvote! I quit upvoting yesterday morning hoping that it would help regenerate my voting power. My voting power is only at 58%, after waiting a day and a half to vote again. I feel like I am in Upvoting Purgatory. I understand the purpose for it taking so long to regenerate, but it doesn't mean I have to like it. So the photo is of me pouting, like I'm in Voting Jail. :(
come back so soon we need your voting I have a new account I want to force it so dont forget to visite my profile and vote my postes and of course klick on follow buttom. .thank you befor
Thanks, I will be back at upvoting once my voting power is back up! I followed your page. :)

Haha, me too and I know what you mean.
Coming from FB where likes are thrown around like confetti, it’s certainly a discipline!
(Please don’t upvote this comment) 😊
Hahaha, you know I wanted to upvote it too! I'm getting used to it. Thanks for the reminder.
Don't fret too much - my voting power is low too. I like to vote also. Spread the love :)
I cannot believe how long it takes to come back up. I am at 61% now... but I'm trying to get it up to 100, or at least close to it.
Takes a long while :/
I see that... I still have a while to go. I am ready to be at 100%! I am scared I'm gonna go voting crazy as soon as I get a chance though.
I am going through the same. I didn't realise how much I up voted until I saw yesterday my upvote strength was only 4%. I decided to take it a bit slower until I decide how I want to use the upvotes. In the meantime I hope my vote strength will grow back as fast as possible. Instead of an upvote I wave to you from my cell.
Waving Back at You! I have to be more careful about what I upvote too. It is so hard though! I want to support everyone lol! I read something that said I should only upvote 10 times a day. I don't know if I will ever be able to limit to just 10 times lol.
Yes I want that to! I feel a bit like Oprah 'You get an upvote, and you get an upvote, and you! All of you get an upvote!'. I would be the worst taxman ever. I have still not decided if I want my upvote to be worth more or if I am going to use them as easy to get support. Maybe I should be the one that gives people the courage to continue to create? But I want it to be worth money also.
It is a hard call. I've put a lot of thought into this. It's like the more you are out there supporting others, the more people support you... but the cost comes from upvoting and commenting (which I run out of voting power and bandwidth when I do so). The other option is to be stingy with your votes and see if by some miracle if people still care to come by and look at your stuff. That may work for Whales... but newbies, I don't think it is as successful, even if you have quality posts.
Also an important question is if stingy is who you want to be? (I have something like 30% now so I gave you finally an upvote thats probably worth a bit)
Yeah! Being stingy sucks. I'm a giver! lol Thank you so much for the upvote. I will return the favor as soon as I can!
You are welcome and thank you for this fun conversation.
Don't feel so bad, I know you like to see how much voting power value you are able to give now hehehe Me, while waiting for my vp to up, I try to search nice story, I try to engage in giving comment too, and that somehow ease out my impatient longing for my vp to be up hehehe. ;)
I ran out of bandwidth for the first time today lol! I didn't even know what it was until I tried to make a comment and got an error message about it. I researched it and apparently I comment too much also! I can't win for losing lol. I like to chat, so I do try commenting. I am going to have to look at steemd.com to try and keep up with this better.
So everything that is too much here is subject to prohibition hehehe. I read once that when bandwidth goes down, all you can do is stare and read all the posts. lol
Pretty much, but I took the little bit of SBD I had and bought Steem to Power Up and it boosted my Bandwidth back up.
That is something new to me. Thanks for sharing. You mean you bought steem here thru trading? Or is it the steempower you bought?
I used the market on here and traded SBD for steem, and then used the steem to power up. When I checked my bandwidth before doing that, it was like -37 lol, but after doing that it was at 99. I also notice after making a post my bandwidth went up too. Maybe they both impact it? I haven't figured that out yet.
That is a nice idea, I only seen in a video here about trading sbd for steem, but haven't seen how to use steem to power up. Yes, I think, somehow getting a higher sp has an impact on your bandwidth, or maybe you were able to take some needed rest that is why it goes up too. I might try both buying steem and powering up my sp if I have enough sbd for trade. ;)
I lived there when I was brand new. lol
Lol, I'm still making newbie mistakes!
No worries - I think everyone ends up on the voting naughty step at some point. Here's to ditching the orange as fast as possible! 😃
Thanks, Lol! Yes, orange is not the new black! Steemit shouldn't be so addictive lol.
Completely agree, Sarah! 😃
LOL!
How do you check your voting power?
