RE: A moment with @timcliff the steemit sage: a witness awareness interview

in #steem7 years ago

Each user has an allotted bandwidth. (The more SP you have, the more bandwidth you are allowed.) When the network gets congested due to heavy usage, uses who have used up the most of their bandwidth will get throttled. The best thing to do is just wait a bit until the traffic dies down (could be a few minutes or a few hours depending on the user activity) and then try again. You also technically have the option to purchase more SP to increase your bandwidth allowance.

Thanks @timcliff! I figured so much, cause when I waited a bit I was able to act again.

First thing I did was vote for you as a witness 😉 .

Really appreciate what you do for us here. I'm sure it takes up a lot of time.

Just wanted to let you know that I gave you a shoutout in my intro post, which I just published an hour ago. I don't want to self-promote my posts in comments, but you know where to find it if you're interested in learning a bit more about an enthusiastic new minnow.

I promise that you will feel entertained...

Thanks :)
