Posts, Comments, Votes, Transactions Disappearing?
Dear Witnesses, and brainy developers of Steemit!
Attention of our valued WITNESSES and Steemit DEVELOPERS.
I just received the second report in addition to my own experiences of
- Posts
- Comments
- Resteems
- Transactions
being NULLIFIED BY STEEMIT, although initially confirmed by the system. Usually, second attempts do go through. This also applies to votes that were cast and then not counted. The problem appears to be intermittent.
I made a transaction to @discordia today in the amount of 0.001 which I could see for about 10 seconds in my wallet. It then disappeared, and I had to transfer the amount again. Note that the balance reverted back to the original amount, so nothing was lost.
I am including a list of all whales and witnesses that I am aware of below as to grab your attention via 'mentioned' notifs.
Please see these comments
by @richq11 and @joanaltres to validate that there may be a problem on the platform.

In the Interim - It's Best To Save Your Drafts Externally!
Did YOU Experience Problems Too?
If anyone else experienced problems, please add them in the comment section with a short description.
UPDATE July 10th 20:10 UTC
Just spoke with a developer who stated that this is a KNOWN issue, which is currently being debugged and looked at. PLEASE: Save your work as you go, particularly if it's longer work, or simply COPY the article/comment into the ClipBoard before submitting and you're sure it's posted. Once it is visible on Steemit - (check after 30 seconds), it will stay there. ch
Please forgive me if you are not involved, but we certainly would appreciate bringing this to all Steemian's attention who can look into this. We are concerned that there could be a bigger problem on the Steemit platform at this time.

ch @globocop
It is a known issue. The dev team is looking into it and working on a solution.
@timcliff Thanks Tim. We are much appreciative of the work y'all doing there.
cool read
Well, problems tho... However, article has been updated.
Thanks for reading.
i hope everything will be ok :)
Yeah - I think if the right people look at it - it will be good. 😎
thank alot for this post :)
This was spontaneous after receiving two reports and having experienced it myself several times. Also had reports and similar experiences in the last few weeks.
Best Advice in the Interim
Save Your Posts External to Steemit and Double Check Afer 2-3 Minutes If they are indeed in the system.
ch @globocop
This is not new to me.
Just yesterday my post I uploaded on earthquakes has disappeared? I had to redo it and posted it today.
https://steemit.com/earthquake/@healthiswealth/dutchsinse-earthquake-forcast
This has happened at least three times for me. DO NOT RELY ON STEEMIT SAVING IT, HAVE A BACK UP COPY.
Indeed. The good news is - the devs are aware and working on a solution.
Thanks for sharing! I know how painful it is to lose work...
ch @globocop
I appreciate the shoulder to cry on ;)
Be well friend.
Be well, too, @healthiswealth!
Much appreciate the reblog! 😎
I got your back :)
What more can one ask for? Thanks @healthiswealth.
BTW, what do you think of the Natural News Content by the Health Ranger?
ch @globocop
Hello globocop, the content of Natural News is very accurate. The Health Ranger does great work helping others.
I am watching this link now:

I have separate issue. No notification except transfer are working. If any one replied or mentioned me in comment I used to get notification in Steemit. But now nothing is working. I have already shouted on many comment but no one replayed.
Thanks for your comment!
I noticed notifications only intermittently working since - late last week.
Best way around it is to use eSteem on a mobile. eSteem Mobile.
Here is a brief review I wrote on eSteem.
ch @globocop
I am using it too But that also has some issues. Which I already reported,
Yeah - It's hanging whenever it tried to refresh a feed. I know. Reported it, too to @good-karma.
Happened on two posts where I commented, upvoted and resteemed.
Resteeming this to 11,000+ followers
Yes, it happened several times to me in the past - so that's not a new thing per se - but it seems to be more frequent since yesterday.
THANK YOU FOR THE REBLOG!!! 😎
Check it out...

Excellent... thanks!
Hello peeps @richq11, @jonaltres, @oluwoleolaide. Here is an excellent explanation by @dragosroua thanks to @denmarkguy as to what is happening and why.
Regardless - these good people are working on the issue to try to improve reliability. At least, it puts me at ease that the system is not falling apart. Phew...
ch @globocop
I wouldn't worry too much about falling apart... They have a hiccup every once in a while... Now if they can just fix the price of SBD...
I am not worried about that either. Not the least. 😎
Didn't get to chapter XXII today - hope to manage tomorrow! Started the intro paragraph tho... ch @globocop
thank a lot for sharing this post
Thank you for reading! 😎
ch @globocop
Nice
Thanks @owojo
Serious?
How do you mean?
Thanks for this information.
You're very welcome. Article has been updated. 😎
Thank YOU for reading! 😎
Yes, I've noticed this happening, too... starting a little over a week ago... wrote a post about it, even:
https://steemit.com/steemit/@denmarkguy/yikes-some-of-my-steemit-comments-have-vanished-anyone-else
The consensus seems to be "Steemit is still a bit unstable" and "Steemit is still in Beta." But people "on the right places" should still know about it.
Dido, happened to me yesterday.
had to redo this today https://steemit.com/earthquake/@healthiswealth/dutchsinse-earthquake-forcast
Thanks for the link @denmarkguy! I have spoken to a dev and updated the post. 😎
@globocop, you might also check @dragosroua's post on this issue-- he runs a witness and explained a lot about how it all works around here:
https://steemit.com/steemit/@dragosroua/help-my-steemit-post-comment-disappeared-and-what-this-has-to-do-with-witnesses
Thank YOU @denmarkguy! That explains and makes sense to me.
Excellent post, which I missed. Defo a witness to vote for. Using Esteem.life now as not to miss witness updates.
😎
yes, my upvote has not shown up on a friend's article although I have upvoted it several times.
Uhuh! Just remember to keep checking - if it's there after a Page Refresh, it's in the Blockchain.
ch @globocop
yes they kept checking and it never showed up
thanks for the PSA!
Yeah - I am confused.... 7,8,9,10 days ago I was getting $30 - $40 on many of my posts but any recent rewards are less than a few pennies ??? Doesn't make much sense to me.
It's the price of the Steem$, low just now - so voting $ are less, too.
It will all come back... 😎

Glad I'm not the only one going through that hell. Today a friend told me my account wouldn't even show up for him. I had been having a lot of glitches in esteem, busy.org and even ChainBB, and other's. Thought it was just them, because I hadn't had an problems in the official Steemit site. Not until my friend said he was having problems here that came to mind maybe, Steemit is going through some updates?
Yes, Steemit just went though 19.01 - best to check out categories witness and witness-category to stay up to date.
Always do the drafts off line using a Markdown editor.
