Just as a heads up - beta.chainbb.com is down temporarily (occurred about one hour before from the timestamp of this post). I have a ticket open, but I'm assuming the internet has been knocked out near the data center as there's reports of a lot of people's servers experiencing downtime and the weather report shows severe storms passing through the area.
I finally get to the point where I have a bit of redundancy at the server level, and now the data center goes down completely :)
I'd guess the server will be back up in the next few hours as services are restored in the area.
Update - 10:30a GMT - Server is back online, but the steemd node was abruptly shutdown + block_log corrupted and needs to be replayed. That's in progress now, I expect it to take about 4-6 hours before I can start using my local (fast) steem apis for indexing. In the mean time, the indexer is now using the public nodes and will slowly start catching up.
Update - 6:00p GMT - Steem got to 99% of replaying, then decided to randomly crash and restart itself, causing some weird locking issues. Forced to restart the server and start the replay over again in an attempt to resolve the issue. It'll keep indexing like it is using public nodes, but it'll take about 2-5 minutes for any posts/content to show up.
Completely unrelated, but I just wanted to tip you, follow you, and let you know I found out about Vessel through @jerrybanfield ... i'm VERY excited!!! Keep up the hard work, and I have some cool ideas on how to help support what you do :) I'll vote for you as a witness as soon as I see Vessel has more peer review!
I am not getting free upvotes if i post via chainbb
The bot has been crashing and I've been away from my PC a decent amount over the last few days. I need to get it setup to auto-restart since it's been so flakey lately.
what about xeldal i am not getting upvote
Thanks for spending for us.. thats why I follow you..
Keep up the work

hi, I voted you as my witness, just wanted to let you know
Thanks for a great platform, am enjoying it a lot. I mentioned you on my recent post-feel free to check it out. More success to you.
@jesta BUG REPORT!
Today, 31 July 2017 my firefox browser redirected my chainbb to the security alert and simultaneously blocking me from chainbb - the redirect warns me the connection is not secure. to protect my information from being stolen firefox has not connected this website. Furthermore, they claim the security certificate expired on 31 July 2017 at 8:27 PM Error code: SEC_ERROR_EXPIRED_CERTIFICATE
Below is a screen capture:
does this happen a lot?
chainbb rocks! and since they are in beta , it is expected to have downtimes sometimes. Any website even in production will have down times. It is inevitable, the question is how is the problem being addressed to remedy the situation.
Chainbb has so much potential and right now its an awesome tool. I am exited to see what will come next later down the road.
Hi jesta, I´m new and I voted you for my witness. FYI...
Thank you @jesta
What has been produced is already really great. I hope such problems will be less - better yet never happen again - happen.
Its been 5 hours and its still not working @jesta
Servers came back online not too long ago - I'm replaying the blockchain files now (which will take some time) and the indexers are running (slowly) pointed at the public steem nodes provided by steemit inc.
Will probably be mid day sunday before all is caught up.
Jesta plz tel mi how to upload a photo in chainbb.com ???
You can't at the moment, but you can upload an image to any public hosting platform and then add it to your post like so:

Hey @jesta in case you didn´t see my post in your bots post, I pointed out another bot, it is @mekong
very nice post
Hello @jesta, sorry that I'm asking you here.
I'm developing now whalesonar and have some questions about how to calculate curation rewards for each upvote (by round shares).
Can you please share formula or link how to do it?
Many thanks in advance .
I believe it uses the
weight
value on each vote to determine the percentage of the curation rewards from that post that the voter will be awarded.So if you have a weight of 10 and I have a weight of 90, and the post we voted on earned 10 STEEM, we would split 2.5 STEEM at a rate of 10% to you (0.25) and 90% to me (2.25).
There's more to it than just that, but that's the basic way I know how to estimate it. Each subsequent vote is going to alter that information as well.
Thank you very much for help!
Also as I know some % should be subtracted in the time interval of 1-30 mins.
No problem, and yep - the first 30 minutes has a sliding scale subtracted to the author during that time.
I haven't actually written out any code for that yet - so if you come up with a clever way of adding that into the equation, I'd be interested in seeing what you come up with!
