Regarding the minnowbooster issue - the chart isn't always up to date (can lag at up to 20 minutes). We try to be responsive on the chat, but if you don't get a reply - talk to me on one of the discords I hang out on and I'll try to help.
I too got caught in a nasty crossfire between some whales a while back. It sucked. Hang on in there.
Now I know who to ping.Thanks for clarifying @techslut. I did try pinging @techtrends, to no avail. I've been having the issue for a while now.
Also, thank you for dropping a couple upvotes on a couple of my photos. You're just lovely. And, really – this has turned out to be quite a gift. Maybe grumpy was actually trying to help. ;)
Happy to help! I know how unpleasant it can be to get whale-flagged. Thing is? Falling victim to bernie's ego was one of the best things to happen to me on the platform. It's how I made a lot of good friends. Grumpy has his own agenda, but at the end of the day it looks like he can do good without meaning to by simply uniting people in criticism against the grump. :)
It really has floored me – the gift I never could've known would come of this.sooo many others predicted – this has played out very much in my favor. Having GC upvote and resteem this post was perhaps the most surprising jaw-dropper of all. Can't say it didn't anything to dispel my strange suspicion that he/she is actually a benevolent kitten, using the most round-about means of lifting up the little guys. ...Too far-fetched? As you and @yabapmatt and
