RE: "Bandwidth Limit Exceeded" - The Silent Killer

in #steem-dev7 years ago

I found this post today and have entered myself into it to get this nice person's report of where I stand. https://steemit.com/steem/@elautomatico/maximum-virtual-bandwith-at-0443
But I have read the replies to other people who have gotten the help on the post (a bunch of numbers) so when I get the reply, I will have to find a place to ask what it all means and what I should do to improve.

I'm doing 2-3 posts a day and 20-50 comments/replies a day. I have had the problem on and off for about 24 hours now. One of my posts yesterday was the most photos I have ever put in a post.

I got the ability to post for about 30 minutes earlier, emptied my wallet and replied to a few people - no posting of my own. Then I got kicked out again for about 4 hours. So now I am answering replies again :)

I have been advised to:

  1. Not post a lot of pics in a post
  2. Don't worry about how many pics since it does not matter to bandwidth.
  3. Make short posts with just 1 pic and a bit of text (create spammy posts???)
  4. Get more steem power somehow
  5. Do not empty the wallet often
  6. Empty the wallet immediately if it has SP in it so it will help with this problem.
  7. Do not worry about steem power and just keep posting when I can get in.

Needless to say I am highly confused now and I am not endorsing any of these answers since I do not know if they are correct.

Thanks the info. It seems that as a user of a "social media" platform you'd have to manage bandwidth. I can't imagine this will help the overall growth of the platform.
