This error is because you don't have enough VP.

You can't delegate all your available HP if your Voting Power or Voting Mana is not at 100%.

As you can see in the image, your VP or Voting Mana is less than 80%.

I suggest trying with a smaller amount, less than 80% of your total HP. Wait a few days for the VP to recover (remove all auto and manual votes) and then update the delegation to a higher amount.

Thanks for the information. I was unaware that voting power/delegating worked in such a way. Oddly enough the full 9000 delegation wouldn't work in one transaction but breaking it down to two transactions did work.

HivePower delegations don't add up, so you are delegating the last amount.

Correct, I made a blunder.

4,000 has been delegated.

It's probably a voting power issue, as we mentioned in the post above if your vp is too low it won't let you delegate as much as you have in HP. Try a lower amount and change it later if you still want!

I haven't been using my HP very well the last few months so why not delegate it for some ZING rewards.

Edit:

I'm not sure what is going on but I'm getting an error message. I got some investigating to do.

Edit 2:

Well that was interesting. For some reason the 9000 delegation wouldn't go through on its own. I had to break it down into two transactions 5000/4000.

Delegations on hive don't add up, so you're currently delegating 4000 (1000 will be returned to you in 5 days after the initial 5000 delegation). It's a bit confusing cause I know on hive-engine they add up for their token delegations.

I knew that and still made the mistake. I'm shaking my head at myself right now but that's ok it could of been worse. I could of mistakenly undelegated it all. Thanks for the help, all the best with getting delegations for your project.

Haha no worries, make sure to log in to the website as well once to not miss out on the first claimdrop rewards! Cheers!
