RE: If you are voting for a HIVE Witness that is stale for more than 1 year... what should you do?

Hi @forkyishere, valuable post! Voting for solid witnesses is extremely important. Perhaps it's worthwhile what is meant by a stale witness, how one check if a witness is stale, and how to check your own witness votes easily.

For others reading this, you can easily look at your votes through the PeakD frontend. Simply click the witnesses button on the dropdown in the upper right corner. There you can see all witnesses, your votes, and how "active" the witnesses are.

I just checked and updated my votes. Turned out it was way overdue!

Thanks, @forkyishere, for sharing this important note!

A couple of options... and a good point, thanks (forgot about that):

• https://hive.arcange.eu/witnesses/ (here you can check any witnesses votes, even historically)
• https://peakd.com/_the_account/witnesses (to check which witnesses this account is voting for)
• https://peakd.com/me/witnesses (check for witnesses in general and you can see if they are stale too)
• https://wallet.hive.blog/~witnesses (another way to vote for witnesses)
• https://vote.hive.uno/_the_account (a simple cool way to vote for a specific witness, made by @cadawg
