Hey Buddy, are you being followed?
Did anyone see you coming here?
I've been promising a handful of people that I would revive these old tools I made once upon a time in the old St33m-based days and replace them but using the Hive chain data, as one well should versus the alternatives!
So without further ado, and with much ado about nothing, I give to you all:
The Dead Followers Tools!
Are you really reaching an audience?
Are you chasing ghosts?
& wait, there's more...
You also get the
When Lambo? tool!
A currency spot price and Lambo exchange calculator.
Now that you know what it all is, I will let these images speak for themselves to explain it better and I'll put the link to the site below them, where you can go and see for yourselves.
CAVEAT! NOTICE! YOU ARE BEING WARNED!
After you submit your name (nothing is saved, tracked, recorded, or anything, its purely sending it, pulling the list back, showing it and when you reload the page, it's gone, you lose it. Instant in, instant out - sort of. Actually after the "wheel" stops spinning, its going to look like nothing is happening, but if you have subs, and 20 seconds patience, it will get the table all formatted up and display the results to you in a moment. Just be patient...
UNLESS....
You have 38,0000 followers.
If you have a huge number of followers like tens of thousands or more, and some of you do, this thing is gonna time out and die returning your payload. I need to add result pagination, but currently just stream it in from the chain. If you wait and nothing happens, well, you're just too popular for my tool, maybe, or maybe they are all dead followers, and you can't do nuthin' about it no'ways.
Anyway, it's f'n free so quit yer bitchin' and go check it out using the link at the bottom of this post after the visual tour and user manual just ahead in our path below!
The following images are a sequential walk through of the site and basic usage.
This is your manual, and the comments section on this post is your "support hotline" for these free tools. No warranty is written, expressed or implied. Your mileage may be measured in kilometers. Ask your doctor if dead follower tools are right for you. Certainly don't decide what's right for you, all by yourself, 😏
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE:
- Enter your name on the dead followers or following the dead pages
- Wait
- Wait one more minute, then call it overloaded, and then write me an angry letter to make my day better with such a stern letter from you, talking to me about things I already know aren't so perfect.
- Review the results, all of them, especially if I have to respond to angry letters.
- Good news though, changing post/vote or months prior will not refresh the list, it only sorts and filters the list you already downloaded, so you only have to "wait and wait again" the first time you load 'em up by submitting your name. That's cool, huh? Yeah, I thought so too.
When Lambo™ is a bonus applet, using live market exchange data, it more or less is just a silly way to check the momentary spot price of Hive or HBD at any give time, and also the current cost of a 2024 Lambo and how much more you need to be able to buy one. Kinda useful to check HIVE and HBD spot prices with though - and Lambos!
Have at it, busy bees!
Go now and see what you find out about your ghosts and ghostings...
...oh yeah, and also your new Lambo delivery date at:
--> SirCork's Tools for Hive
Enjoy the nerdy gadgets! 🤓

We appreciate your support!
I still have a long way to go before lambo.
Me too friend, me too.
So... Where can I get me 2% of a Lambo?
There's this car restoration guy on YouTube named Tavarish that might be able to hook you up. He's got all kinds of broken supercars in his garage.
Cool toolz. You definitely know stuff. I'm impressed with your gusto! Hats off.
Next life, I'm coming back as @sircork
I feel like it would an interesting experience, to be in your head, and think the way you do. We could swap bodies for a day, and decide which one is best (or worst) haha. Freaky Friday with a twist.
Nah, I'd just spend all day playing with yourself. I already know how it would go and you don't wanna be in MY head anyway, for sure. I spend a lot of time out of it myself.
Well, how do you know I wouldn't be doing the SAME thing....Hmmmm?
This is a very cool tool, the first of its kind I have seen anywhere.
I wrote it like six years ago, it's been down since the steem/hive fork lol
Lmao omg dude, I missed your writing. Good fun and I almost never leave one without a laugh. As for the tool,going now to see some stats partner !PIMP !LOLZ !hiqvote keep bringing the goodies!
Wild that @enforcer48 and I have the same amount of truebees 😝
Well it ain't bugged and stuck there, cause I ain't gud enuff.

Helluva tool. I haven't seen that before. Perspective always has a nice ring to it. = }
I built it on st33m in prolly 2018? late 2017, ran it till steem left in like 2020? Anyhoo, ported it to hive today :) Finally.
Ooh nice to have this kind of tools back 😊
Happy to help!
This is a cool app and perhaps useful to many. There are some of my dead accounts which placed me on auto vote before they died and there have been some dead accounts which have surprised me when they sat up in the morgue. Not mentioning any names as an example. 🙄
A few, not many, of my undead have me on their HiveVote list. One thought in the back of my mind is to beef them up with a delegation so that their vote has a bit more bite than at present. Might be a great time to swap some BCH for HIVE for that little experiment. They are both in the toilet right now so both should bounce somewhat when that bull ever takes off. Might be swim with the Dolphins time again. 😎
now that is some creative thinking. do it, report back!
Oof sadness.
But, it is worth mentioning that the tool takes "badges" on PeakD into account:
These accounts are never meant to do anything besides following a user and thus displaying a "badge" on their profile. I'm sure community accounts with the format "hive-xxxxxx" apply too.
Anyways.
Actually, that's not bad. Not bad at all (in comparison to the sad lot of us)
Ok, so tats 20 of jor too towsind laddee
I have my lambo already. 😁
The next will be in orange? 😏or green? 🙃
Will try the tool later! Thanks.

You know you think you are!
I think you know that I know you know I think I am.
I knew it!
WAAAAAAAAHH!
How much life is there in my following? I realize I could check myself but that's not how you earn a witness vote.
Don't shoot the messenger but...
It's time to change names to: nofollowersleftoloose
But you fall right in with the pretty common "only 'bout ten percent of 'em posted in the last month" crowd. So you aren't alone in being sort of alone here.
That's what I thought. Can scroll through peakd and see they're not posting, and not too many linger around just to browse, because they were told to come here and post. Some do linger, of course. Typically the following wouldn't be made up of majority content creators. Similar to how not everyone watching the baseball game is a baseball player. We've been doing it backwards since 2016, but I'm done talking about it, and I knew this would be the outcome.
Might be time to write one more post, just as note that I've retired.
Thanks though. Witness vote incoming.
Thank's for that, what a way to win your confidence But I do indeed appreciate it!
It's all good. It's been on my mind for awhile. Both giving you and witty a vote, and making it official I don't have it in me to start all over again. I appreciate reality. Time to figure out what I'll do next. Have to bite my tongue every time I stumble into the same pattern of confusion. Then do nothing, say nothing, see nothing. It'll drive me nuts but I don't need the stress anymore. Can't get behind the normal way of life here either and be excited. There are other opportunities though, showing hints of a future I can see. Hopefully enough to keep me around. And I still enjoy kicking back and mingling.
I feel all the feels you are feeling. I am fighting my own disappointment about how it could be, versus how it is, but I am also looking at external factors in the world between 6 years ago and now and what has happened across the world in between, its actually a surprise people are still using the internet at all. Huge percentages are in countries with wars right now, others are just happy to be back outside after lockdown years, and everyone is also getting sick of more and more evil ON the web and also evil that is BUILDING the current internet.
AI, evil big tech company human data miners, spam, scams and an ever weakening level of content aimed at the idiocrasy that is spreading rampantly in newer generations, not the intellectual stronghold it was in the 90s and early 2000s.
The end of an era. But for some of us, there is hope in these small enclaves, for me, hope for a community where I can have discussions like this one. Which are getting rarer and rarer to find in low attention span world of the modern internet.
Thanks for your vote, as long as this system has electricity, Witty and I will be near it and trying to keep the lights on for the rest of us, so stop by anytime, "retiring" or not.
