Don't Panic! STEEMIT.CHAT is Up and Running: Here Are All the Official Details:
You may have noticed that Steemit.Chat was down for a day or so — it seems like everyone on the platform is talking about it! But don't worry: Steemit.Chat is already back, and ready for action!
Running Steemit.chat is a big deal. The chat is a integral part of the Steemit experience, and for a long time, @Riverhead did an incredible job taking care of everything required to make it available to everyone. Yesterday, the announcement was made that Steemit.chat would be down until it was migrated to a new team. Since the time and expenses were getting a bit high, and @Riverhead is focusing on some new ventures, someone needed to step up. There was a bit of speculation as people only skimmed the message, or as they worried if we would actually be taking over.
It's true, we are: @followbtcnews is now hosting Steemit.Chat!
We worked tirelessly to get chat everything up and running and to minimize the downtime, and we're happy to say everything is already back up and ready to go! You can use chat exactly as before. Nothing has changed or been lost.
I need to take the time right now to acknowledge @Riverhead for all of his service to Steemit.Chat, Steemit, and the STEEM blockchain. Before any thing else existed, Steemit.Chat was there for Steemians of all walks of life to meet and share. He guided it through expansion, development, and took on the costs in both time and money to help it become the place it is today. We are thankful to him for his gracious help in allowing us to take the torch, for getting all the data ready, and being there for us during this really quick changeover period. Everyone should give him a round of applause for his service to our community, and follow his future ventures! 👏👏👏
You will start seeing some performance improvements right away as we have moved to our dedicated servers, and you will continue to see speed and reliability improvements over the next few days as we begin tweaking things to make Steemit.Chat even better.
Now I need to take a bit more time to thank @GTG. Without his help, we simply would not have been able to get Steemit.Chat ready to go this fast. He worked side by side with us to get the database installed, migrated, and set up. We'll be continuing to work with him over the course of this week to explore more performance improvements at a base level. He has been an integral part of saving Steemit.Chat, and also deserves a huge round of applause. 👏👏👏
Yay! Steemit.Chat is back! What's next?
Good question. Over the coming weeks, we'll be working on what I've already discussed above. Changing and further developing new features for Steemit.Chat is on the horizon, but not here yet. We want to get everything stabilised and optimised, and then we will continue working on a few of our big upcoming projects. In the interim, if you have suggestions for Steemit.Chat, here are two links you'll want to know:
- https://github.com/sciborg/Steemit-Chat This is a GIThub repo specific to Steemit.Chat.
- https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat
And this is a GIThub repo for the overall client, which is open source.
You can also contact me, @followbtcnews, or witness partner @crimsonclad on Steemit.Chat or Discord. Both of us keep an eye on both places and are available to help or chat whenever you may need us.
Thanks for being patient with all the crazy stuff happening over the last few days. We're proud to be able to help keep this important component of our platform alive, as well as to be a part of the development of other important Steemian communities on Discord. The more places we have for witnesses, curators, creators, developers, and investors to work together for Steemit, the better.
Bringing together more Steemians to network, chat, make friends, and grow is one of our biggest goals. On behalf of Crimmi and myself, thanks for letting us be a part of your Steemit experience.
I'm Jeff, and I'm @followbtcnews.
I'm a top 30 witness, along with my project partner @crimsonclad. Feel free to reach out to us on Steemit Chat or Discord any time! If we haven't earned your vote yet, please take some time to look at our tools and our work. We hope you decide to place a vote for followbtcnews at https://steemconnect.com/sign/account-witness-vote?witness=followbtcnews&approve=1

How can we contribute? @riverhead

I am "newby" to SteemIt , this is just amazing to me. I am still trying to understand it, but to be rewarded for content in a tangible way is just priceless. Like at my office in ATL they reward mentorship and general going above and beyond with what we call Bravo cards. The idea is that you write the the value of how much another staff effort was important to meet an objective or just made life easier for me. A mazon or Target gift card is given but "words" and thoughts expressed is what make you go to work with smile the next days ...nuff respect ..i will continue to learn
no pussies, just cat pics

Thank you for all you have done and continue to do!!!
@followbtcnews
A few months ago a rep 69 (now 71) spammer, who is also an administrator of steemit.chat banned my account of steemit.chat, because I revealed the fact that he spammed Steem with a comment bot. I hope you are aware of this and don't let steemit.chat to be in the bad hand again.
For details, please read my posts:
The spammer and the adm of steemit.chat came to downvote me repeatedly, curse me, harass me, and threaten me publicly on the blockchain:
It was explained why you were banned and you continued to harass me and undermine the work being done. You've been butthurt over a comment instead of upvote on your post all along. Hence the decision stands, much to you dismay. Grow up!
I noticed you stopped spamming since I pointed it out. I am very proud of you!
Now you need to stop lying.
Dont worry hes not the only cunt on this platform most of them are. And the whole platform is about self promotion and garbage real writers and creatives have no place here, thats self defeating since, most of posts on this platform have no true value in real life other than promoting delusion that this platform has a future. But hell what do we know right ? Only good thing here is that there are some smart people but smarties tend to go away when 2 much idiots get involved so that speaks for itself.
You don't know how smart this guy is. A few months ago I noticed he followed 80k+ steemians. If you use a bot to follow 1 account in 1 second, you need 22+ hours to follow 80k users. At that time, steem only had 300k accounts.
Many users followed him back. Then, he unfollowed all the users.
Thats not smart thats what is killing this platform. Dont concern yourself with those kinds of followers that just follow you back because you follow them lots of accounts here are fake, forgotten, useless etc. This platform has no decent policing of content and users or clear and decent guidelines for community. You cant form good interest groups here or quality content they just promote crap out of interest follow and vote as well.
Although this platform attracts lots of smart normal and decent folks, lots of users here are psychopaths and idiots with bad intentions. People really dont seem to care for the bigger picture. Anyway you cant have decent argument with people online since they just ban, mute, downvote etc as soon as you talk against something. Yes the sad truth is that we really need a new platform other than reddit and other garbage websites on the web that used to be good but turned out into some nazi fantasies or whatever you would call it. Steemit just isnt it. I bet that guy is some reject or something close to that i dont really care but facts remain and truth is eternal.
lol to my point i just saw i had few bots following me yesterday now i have none (someone got butt hurt, hope their head didnt explode ) as i was saying they only enable things that directly profit them. I never even looked at this platform as a means to earn money and also i am not into all that following crap i have like 20-25 friends on facebook and those are genuine friends. Even on reddit where i spend alot of time i dont have alot of karma because i speak my mind i helped alot of people with programming and electronics i never got paid nor did i expect to be. But when you add money to the equation it really changes everything. I wish them the best but there alredy are lots of platforms that work, and they didnt take time to learn from that. Just add we are changing the world with crypto and people get suckered into it. So far they didnt change anything nor did they make a single thing better. I currently follow only 1 person here because i want to see hes content when i find more posts i like i will follow those people aswell. But to follow people cuz of some incentive that i potentially might profit from it thats just stupid. Sorry i dont like to write much but this kind of crap breaks my heart. in this modern age when people can have everything they kinda have less than ever.
Great news!
lol
sería fabuloso para el desarrollo de esta plataforma el cual agilizaría el proceso de aprendizaje y adaptación para los nuevos usuarios e incluso para aquellos que siguen escépticos
follow me @estemmother
follow me @estemmother
Yes he did! Account proof @christoryan @firepower @lovecoins
Lets all be matured about this and keep beef off the blockchain please... And thank you @firepower @followbtcnews @riverhead, @nationalpark and everyone who did good...for everyone we still have a long way to go on steemit lets not ruin all with misunderstanding...thankyou.
Are are sure
I have to say that @firepower more than helped me get my steem account back once it was hacked but he went out of his way to help me with tips and tricks to avoid more chaos! So I do not agree with these allegations and you have to remember something.. These admins work day in a day out to help modify, moderate, and market steemit the only way they know how.. People have bad days and you never know what somebody is going through, especially when you haven't viewed all agles because only God can do that. So I am going to upload the screen shots so maybe we can compromise a solution and help others. #namaste @nationalpark
And yes I will share the story soon~ namaste
Yes he did! Account proof @christoryan @nationalpark @lovecoins
**For personal information purposes I could not disclose the entire convo but he definatly helped me when I needed it so thanks @firepower **
Just keep steemin and everything will be alright~ :D

I was going through my Steemit.chat DMs from the first few days I joined, and I found the ones where you helped me with my introduce myself post and welcomed me into the chat. There's something special about that, I think~
Thank you for all you do. We're just trying to live up to some of the precedents set around here.
Thank you :-)
I hope I do get someone to help me too. It gets kinda difficult with newbies like me. O lawd, I need a break!
