In order to advance ShadowBot and address an internal design flaw, we were forced to reset the Shadow Pool. Nothing was lost, but ALOT was gained! All Posts created from here on will still be listed in the Shadow Pool, however if you created a post before this time it will not be in the Shadow Pool (most members joined before this would have effected them).
We are sorry for any issues this may have caused short term but we know the internal upgrades we are rolling out are critical to everyone!
Thanks to this upgrade we are now able to display earnings on posts/votes that Shadow Bot has cast! Take a look at a sample here: https://shadowbot.us/shadowbot/post.php?post_id=32087

I am very happy with shadowbot.
It encourage new steemers alike me.
Those who have not joined make it fast.
Glad to have you on board! Every minnow counts as we form a whale's power together!
Its a great project and I'm very happy to by part of it.
But i do have one problem. in settings I have "auto follow back" off but it still do it.
I see the last follow back "auto" 20 hrs ago. I will track this but we did find a minor bug that led to a few accounts ignoring this option (sync issue on the backend) that we fixed earlier today. If you see more follow backs let me know but I believe we resolved this bug. Thanks again for being part of this, we are in a public Beta so we are tracking down "minor" bugs like this and squashing them out as we expand and get ready for a soft production roll out!
ok. i will have a look and that and if that will happen again I will report it.
Please let me know, I believe it should be fixed we migrated the front end and backend to the same server so there is no longer any sync issues. If it continues please let me know though! Thanks again!
its working fine now. thanks.
That's why its beta keep up the great work! Smash them bugs!!!!
Wasn't a bug more an upgrade that required a "reset" of the pool which in the grand scheme was very minor. Starting now anything you post as a shadow caster goes into the pool. I could argue this is a benefit to those who are new since the queue is very light now ;)
I'd like to say I'm very happy with how the project is going.. We should all expect minor bugs and changes and as long as they are address (which they seem to have been so far) Then i think the project will thrive
I agree, I have always been known to address bugs timely as well as provide support to those with issues (not just let it become vaporware like many projects do). This was actually a very big upgrade that I MAY be able to migrate the old data in, but since it is non critical I have it on the back burner and by the time I could migrate it all would probably be long forgotten. Thanks for being part! Everyone in the Beta is has some serious earnings gains already. You can now see your posts on your dashboard and in each post see how much you earned from ShadowBot up votes! We are working on this page now but the basics are there now!
Thank you for all the hard work. It does give hope to lots of minnows just starting out and struggling
Thanks for being part. You can already see how you earn a lot more with your posts using ShadowBot than with out: https://shadowbot.us/shadowbot/post.php?post_id=5428 I would say at least half or more of the earnings for that post was thanks to ShadowBot up votes ;)
So excited to see this grow every week! <3 @shadowbot!
@shadowbot about the Shadow Rank what makes the rank go up or down my rank was 20% and now it is 10% :(
It is a combination of factors. But the major ones are how many posts you make per day vs the number of votes you allow ShadowBot to cast for you. You have been over voting "Voting Power: 75.49% (29 hours till full)" and have no allowed any up votes to be cast from your account but have received up votes on 79 posts totally 20.604SBD reward already.
Simply stop up voting and dial back the number of posts you make per day. ShadowRank recalculates every day and works on a moving average.
ShadowRank is our anti-abuse mechanism that is used to fairly allocate the Pool's resources to all members. I will write up a more detailed description of exactly how ShaodwRank works and all the ways you can effect it this week!
Thanks for joining! Happy Steeming!
