We have been experiencing issues with the node minnowpond uses lately which has been delaying upvotes + resteems. They will still be voted + resteemed, We have turned up the voting percentages to appologize for this inconvience. And will be fixing the Issue later today.
“3022 payments have not been honored with the promised resteem!”
Not everyone pays for a resteem, users who send 0.25 only get an upvote. While I admit we have likely missed a few resteems its no where near 50% of payments.
@minnowpond, thanks for your comment.
I would advise you to contact me on steemit.chat or via Telegram (@The_Arcange) to clarify this situation.
Meantime, my Warning-Bot has been put in suspend mode regarding your account.

You are the BOSS of @minnowpond Bot? Please read this post: https://steemit.com/scam/@steemsyndicate/from-my-experience-with-minnowpond-and-company-avoid-him-is-a-scammer There are many complaints and claims without answering; because with @minnowpond the SBDs are being stolen from people when they do not comply with the votes they offer for the transfers of 0.25, 0.5 SBD or more, which much promote as MESSAGE SPAM @minnowpond IS SCAM?

I don’t know what you are talking about? The “boss?” I use the service like everyone else and haven’t had an issue.
Thank you for this alert
i sent yall 1.25 SBD for Bigger upvote and resteem, i keep trying to contact yall and get no responds back! I want my refund!!! Look at this-7 days ago Transfer 1.250 SBD to minnowpond https://steemit.com/rap/@kenentertainment/really-needin-you-make-em-scream-ugghh-music-video-snippets
Nothing happened so i tried to get in touch with yall-
5 days ago Transfer 0.001 SBD to minnowpond Refund please, it's been 24 hours! You know i've used you guys a couple times and was always treated fairly, so either refund or do what i paid you for. If yall scamming me your stupid becuz you'd make more money down the road with me using yall over and over then just 1.25 sbd
Plus many more comments, asking what was going on!!!
If the system was messing up you should've responded, now please may i have my refund?
Same here, they are impossible to get ahold of. They really don't receive that many mentions for them to overlook my multiple comments directed towards them. 14 days and never received the services I sent SBD for. Smh... @minnowpond
Yeah, there scumbags....i don't believe that sever down bullshit. Why would they continue to send ads knowing the "servers down"?
Idk i think the post wasnt upvoted nor resteemed... I didnt get any sorta gain. I guess this was to late past the 7 day time frame... so i personally feel like my 1.25 sbd went to waste,
I rent power to this service and I don't believe it to be a scam. Why not contact the owner first before posting something like this?
Based on my experience, "scammers" usually do not respond to contact attempts. It is often a waste of time, and during that time, they continue their misdeeds.
It is also for this reason that I use the "potential" qualifier if it is not totally proven.
As you can see in the comments, @minnowpond has reacted quickly and I think we will be able to solve this issue.
And non-scammers would respond quickly. Faulty logic there, you have assumed the worst and treated minnowpond accordingly. You can't have it both ways, either it was proven it or it was not.
IMHO, the world is not as binary as this. Many "resteem service providers" are in between.
The aim of such post is to warn people and help them forge their own opinion. As the popular saying goes, "prevention is better than cure".
Hello @arcange, minnowpond also comment every time when i post.But i did't send him any money.What should have to do for stop it?
same problem......... @arcange
Hello, @meherin,

😊
thank you for helping my friends, I am happy to hear it. good information for me in delegating. I will follow you and I have upvote your post.
Thanks for your support
You are welcome @arcange,
Good job!
@arcange, something to say is recently the bot has been going through some changes. If you check out the discord chat there were tons of complaints and they were being taken care of, albeit at a delay. A response came around 20 hours ago stating the following:
Great work you are doing here. More people need to see this!
I also run a resteem service. But i try to keep it as honest as possible.
Oh by the way i voted you for a witness.
Your post has been resteemed to my 2500 followers
Upvote this comment if you like this service
Thank you for the action!
Thanks a lot for the information, once I see the comment @arcange on my blog, I keep opening it, I have never sent SBD to @minnowpond, but with the warning hero like @ Tarcange then we can anticipate to avoid the scammer.
