Hi Steemers. I'm not sure but I think that either my accounts been hacked, or there's something seriously wrong with it. Yesterday I started following some influencial people such as @curie, @kingscrown and @donkeypong using Streemian, and I had 98% voting power. Today I thought I'd check how it had effected my voting power using SteemDB and noticed that it had gone down to 33% in just one day!!!!
I looked at my outgoing votes and there's votes upon votes going out posts and accounts I've never looked at or heard of!
And more:
And more:
It goes on and on and on. What's strange is that lots of them are tiny percentage upvotes, but combined it's had a massive effect on my power.
Here's who I'm following using Streemian.
Can someone explain to me what's going on? Has my account been hacked? What can I do to stop my upvotes from going out to random posts?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you in advance. @birdistheword
as i see you joined steemian and gave your posting key , and whom you follow you upvote that they vote so lets say @curie, @kingscrown and @donkeypong upvoted someone and you upvote it too :) because of this your power sky rocket down . To not drain so much just turn off your voting trail
Oh right I thought it would just vote for the posts they created. I'll see if i can sort it now. So what I thought was hacking was just me being a dum dum. Thanks for your help!
You followed 3 active curators :P
Oopsie sometimes I have momentary lapses on dippyness :D
Oh my goodness! I was looking at that steemian thing and thought it would drain my power. Now you confirmed this. So sorry! I try so hard to keep mine above 75%. I will not play with fire!
