How about use this period to test out https://steemitstage.com!
Let's help the steemit devs! Steem (blockchain) isn't down; has never been!
@busy.org is in test phase but works well. You can also use that, if your current intention is to create a post. However, if you would like to vote with sliders, you may want to do that with https://steemitstage.com currently as it works and i am currently responding to my comments and curating as well.
Features like slider votes are being worked upon to be added by @busy.org according to @fabien. All other features on the new @busy.org beta interface work awesomely, even transfers and steemconnect v2.
https://steemitstage.com
Is like sandbox for steemit devs, to help them with optimization of steemit.com. The interface is practically just like steemit.com, however, tests are ran or implemented on there first; tested by us and feedback from our use, is used by steem devs to make optimizations before an actual implementation on steemit.com.
At times like this, when www.steemit.com appears down, we can easily use https://steemitstage.com and enjoy our steemit journey, while give steemit developers something to work with.
https://steemitstage.com/
Please don't get phished. So you can copy/paste.
Any apprehensions, simply use your posting key to sign in.
This is especially for many who interact non-stop and want to respond to comments and for curators who like gem and digging.
Overall, steemit devs will have more things to analysis in terms of optimizing steemit, to ready it for a future filled with masses.
As for creating posts, there are many outlets or interfaces that allow that to happen seamlessly.
The steem blockchain ofcourse runs!
My "steemgigs" witness runs too, incase that's of value!
A witness server is simply one of the servers holding the steem blockchain. Each is ran in decentralized locations round the world.
There are many witness servers too, so that there is backup non-stop and so that transactions upon the steem blockchain pull through, non-stop!
Too, there is a human factor (witness). So behind these servers are reputable steemians. By reputation, i don't mean numbers or (reputation score) necessarily. I mean reputation for real!
Proven
Yes, many steemians create value, unannounced and behind the scenes too. And on steemit, it is value that is reward; content creation being just one of the ways to add value!
So a reputation score of 25, as seen on steemit, doesn't necessarily mean that you don't have an actual rep of 100.
Altogether, a reputation is score is a good measure of actually rep as these numbers have a history dented into them and over time, growth and evolution happens.
Yes, you can't jump from rep 25 to 70, if time didn't fly by. Ofcourse, there are other factors involved when it comes to measure rep but time (history) is very much involved, whether on the scenes (on steemit) or behind the scenes.
Overall, actual rep is what we seek, so let's be humans, forgiving, un-condeming, loving and etc
I will forgive you a hundred times
Your Boy Terry

If you will like to vote for my witness, its appreciated! Simply visit:
https://steemitstage.com/~witnesses incase steemit.com doesn't load and type in "steemgigs" in the first search box!
They wouldn't allow me log into steemitstage.com . See the image of the response I got when I tried to .
looks like you are trying to make a new account, just log in as normal.
No dont sign up. Sign it. it is basically steemit
One thing I love in decentralization is the fact that everyone's bits comes to form the whole. Interesting to find out about steemitstage.com. I have another word for my "always complaining" fellows anytime there seems to be a ddos attack.
Hahaha yes. But specify that they check spelling, so that they are on the right site
Hi @surpassinggoogle, Though a lots of efforts are being done by the Steemit management and Witnesses in particular to make it a better platform. This is all appreciable. Your post is another proof of how much good work you're doing . This is the positive side of the picture.
The negative side is Steemit site is going down countless times in a single day. I brought a at least 8-10 new users to join Steemit. Unfortunately, I brought them to Steemit in the same week. So, all the efforts that I had done ended in smoke.
It's true that there are alternate solutions like busy.org, esteem, ChainBB and now this Steemitstage. But this does not solve the problem because the main site is Steemit. Users already have to manage posting key, active key and a master password for Steemit to avoid any attack on their account by some hacker. When we tell the new users to take this alternate route, they get frustrated. If this had not been the case, why are Steemit posts very low in number during this week?
Steem On!
Yes its true. I am hopefully that it will get fixed
Hello Terry. I remember to use busy.org whenever the user interface (UI), steemit.com is down for whatever reason, maybe due to another DDos attack. I am responding to this post of yours from busy.org. I have no problem using the slider button. So, it works well for me, although the user needs to apply some skills of patience to be able to manage the slider button. Thank you very much for loving my mama and sending 25 SBD for her birthday. We really appreciate it. My mum sends her prayers and love to you. Cheers.
@maryfavour for @redfishpillar project.
Hahaha thank you much. I am using the test version of the new busy. I doesnt seem to have the slider yet. Yes, the old busy will definitely work. And yes, i didn't know of her bday. I just saw your wallet. You sent 25 to @oluwoleolaide and i was touched, so i was sending the money back to you for your own love for mama. i have mama news too. Like miracle happened. i have almost finished my wallet to pay bills but i will tell you in chat
Thank God there is a good news... Finally I see the laughter.
God is faithful.
You can see
God has his way of putting smiles on his childrens face
Haaaaaaleeeeeluiiiiiia!!! Wow! We thank God, who is merciful. He really answers prayers. I can't wait to hear your testimony!
@maryfavour for @redfishpillar project.
He has to, without him we're nothing
I love this!
Hi @surpassinggoogle indeed another post on Let's help Steemit developers to test https://steemitstage.com perhaps i have read your post and according to me we should all as steemians help the Steemit developers to improve Steemit as a blockchain network since Steemit development lies in our hands we as steemians,indeed this is another alternative site that will better Steemit for its users we as steemians the people on Steemit infact it will come with new features of which it will be great to put in use,also i do believe that it will be a communication platform that will connect Steemit users and developers for better improvements and development here on Steemit,lastly it is impressive to see that on this platform there is real reputation but all in all reputation does not matter since it does not mean when you are on reputation 25 you can not jump upto 100 as days pass by or you don't have a reputation of 100 in actual sense as you said,finally lets us be humans by portraying love,forgiving and not condemning as for me i will surely forgive all the people that do hurt me just like you said mr Terry ,stay safe boy Terry since you are a blessing on Steemit much love from @davidkaruah to @surpassinggoogle.
Awesomeness
Indeed Awesomeness as usual,thank you for your time and upvote since you are also awesome my friend,lastly blessings sir Terry.
@surpassinggoogle
never? what's going on then? just slow?
I've had the weirdest experience last night - I posted, it appeared on the "new" section and then I copied the URL but when I refreshed and sent it in the chat channel it looked weird and had nothing on it except for the link
what could be the problem?
thumbnails on some posts are also not showing up
comments and ups are loading but takes time and sometimes had to cast them several times .. is it just getting sluggish when it says gateway 503 or something like that?
sorry to ask a lot .. but I'm not the only one asking these questions
thanks for the tip about steemitstage and busy
for now Steemit's working just fine - a bit slow but working
Yes its slow. Its been having some attacks. Something too many transactions at a time. I wonder who is doing such. But i am sure they are working on it. i am using steemitstage for now
I see .. thanks for the info!
I never really knew about this steemitstage. Thanks for bringing it to our notice.
Hello @surpassinggoogle
Thanks for this revelation. I was even planning to make a post about busy.org before I stumbled upon this one, which has www.steemitstage.com in addition to what I originally had in mind to communicate my fans about. This post is most appreciated because it would help ease the nerves of some members who are ill informed and who don't know that there is a wide difference between steemit.com and steem blockchain.
Steemit.com is only a front-end built upon steem blockchain. Steem does not depend on Steemit.com as alternative front-ends can as well be used to access steem blockchain just like busy.org, chainbb.com and the latest revelation from you.
I think this fact should be communicated to people during sign up stage to avoid unnecessary panics whenever steemit.com is down for one reason or the other.
Thanks for sharing this post. Thanks.
@eurogee
Yes. Ofcourse, do the post about busy. I am testing the new version of busy currently and it will be great. You can talk to @fabien if you want to test it. And yes that difference you mention is even the sole info steemians need to tap into success, vision etc. Many get lost in only the blogging
I saw this steemitstage some time ago but thought it looked phishy :)
So, I didn't bother to try it, one cannot be too careful :)
But seeing you approve it, I'll give it a try even though I usually use busy.org to access it as I kinda likes its GUI. Great to see another alternative. Keep steeming.
Yes, the link does look like that. i left references to it underneath my post to steemitblog and steemitdev with regards to steemitstage. busy is good enough.
Looks pretty cool, I am replying this response via steemitstage website.
Hahaha yes. the steemit feel. i had to use it cos many of my comments were disappearing
I usually copy my comments before clicking post, nothing is as frustrating as making a nice comment and see it disappear after clicking post with no way to recover it but by typing it again. Happened to me thrice or so then I learned the hard way. So, I now copy before posting, if it disappears, I'll just paste and try again. It is a bother, but I guess it's just for the time being. Thanks.
Steemit had a little issue few days ago, post disappearing but I guess it has been fixed
I tried posting from busy.org yesterday for the first time. There's further development like you pointed out but seems really promising. I love the "draft". I can now scribble ideas as they come, then improve later as inspiration come.
Will try the staging steemitstage.com later. I was actually able to vote with the slider in busy though, they must have added that recently.
The busy i refer to is a new one being tested. i made an error. i was using the one when i was doing this post. busy has always exist, so i believe the old one has the slider. If you want to test to new one, you can contact their CEO @fabien. You have done nothing wrong. Not all info is bare.
Ah yes, saw that from their channel. I tried logging in but haven't really explored it like the old one. They also do not want to share the URL publicly so I guess it is a privilege to try it out, or is it because of limitations like bandwidth? Will try that one too. I still saw the "draft" function there as well as separated entries from yourself and your reblogs, that is cool too.
Hi, I think there's a typo towards the end -- you say to type in "steemgig" but the image further above shows your witness node to be "steemgigs", plural at the end.
I checked both users, and "steemgig" is only rep 25 and hasn't done much, so I think you may want to add an "s" to the sixth word from the end.
If I'm seeing this wrong, please let me know what's right? Thanks!
Woah, its steemgigs. i didnt know someone has done @steemgig. Really, even steemgigs.com was bought by someone last time i checked. For a period, i dont know if that duration as expired. i will edit now. Thank you alot
Sure thing! Glad to help out. Thank you so much for sharing this site, it has made today so much more pleasant than the past week.
I am recovering from multiple concussions, and get quite irritated when computers don't act right. This post (which I've resteemed) has helped my sanity a great deal today, thank you thank you thank you! :)
You are welcome. Take care and recover soon
Thanks for the good wishes! The first had me out of work for 7 months -- and, I went back too soon. The second permanently disabled me, and the third was just the universe saying "hey, stop thinking about writing code" or something...
Hopefully I will recover, but at this point, it seems a very long and winding road.
But my pattern-matcher is apparently still working! :D
I tried to log in it says only one IP per phone oh my! it wont let me, but steemit
was down a few minutes ago, i hope Terry you get this up and running, i support you
Oh on a fone. The web works. i dont know if mobile works but if you use browser on mobile, i wonder if it will work. Esteem should work but i hardly use a fone
Even on a phone. Its still not login in, would there be a solution for this? Somebody help me with a solution.
Thought it wasn't only me. Having the same issue
I did not know about this portal mate, thanks so much for sharing it in such time where we are all getting issue to log in Steemit!
You are awesome man!
Hi bro, you are awesome as well. I see you in the united africa kitchen. Yes, it exists. Although the last news about it was months ago on @steemitdev. I left references underneath my post here. Stay awesome
Oh how I am happy to read your reply back brother. On yes I am on the United Africa channel and I did saw you there too! I am also running a unique type of cooking contest named : Steemit Iron Chef, I did send you a message on Steemit.chat some weeks back, maybe you did not notice it!
I love reading all your post mate, you make me laugh so much with your great sense of humor!
I thought there is something wrong with my Internet connection. I wanted to upload some of these pictures. But steemit was not working :/
By the way its my college :D
Yes. The site i left works
Actually i used busy.org Whenever Steemit is down and Btw i really love that slider option on that because on steemit we require to get above 500 SP for that And thats The Good Thing Because sometimes we need to give a little bit downvote to the spammers which are gradually increasing day by day and its necessary to downvote them a little and i think 100% would be BAD i think it bad personally even Downvote is not good but i do only on them to whom i have proof and i also give them proofs !
So it would be good if they add slider on steemit.com even for little sp
I HOPE THEY WILL ATLEAST VIEW MY SUGGESTION !
Wow that soo similiar to steemit man :O Is that really secure i mean i am to curious to give passwords to other sites because of large number of phishing going on BTW thats also need to be solved !
Phishing and hacking passwords need to be solved there must be an option to stop them because they have thousands of id's they can snatch all those minnows who have money but dont know how to get secure account !
Sorry for long Comment :P haha
BTw my last two posts are just waiting for you one is waiting since more than 24 hours :P I know you are too busy but as a reminder lol :P
I think he needs to employ me so I can help relieve most of the ...............lol
It is safe, you can read more on the links underneath my posy by @steemitblog and @steemitdev. but ofcourse, in every case look at spelling closely and https. There are interfaces that allow smaller sp sliders. i cant remember these sites though. Overall, you will get to 500 soon.
Thank you, friend. This is exactly the type of information we need to be spreading in these times. The ddos attack is good for one thing, it makes us less dependent on steemit.com A major point of all of this is for multiple ways to use, not just one web login. <3
I wrote a related post, today.
https://steemitstage.com/discussion/@inquiringtimes/are-you-experiencing-lower-pay-on-your-posts-is-someone-picking-on-you
Thank you for your service!!!!
Am happy such a thing is coming up. The last time when steemit was down, it was like i was in a blackout,with such a new innovation i will be able to do my usual work on stemit even though the site is down. Am resteeming this post so my follower can be carry along
Awesome. No lele
I love your reply,i never knew you understand this our 9ja slang at "No lele". Make i drop my own for you at " ma wo oju uche" meaning know look uche face. It was in yoruba my dialect
Mo ti gbo
gbam, this @surpassinggoogle is another thing all my i was thinking was that he is from philippines but now thus guy must be from osun state at my intuition
Hahaha funny. I just know things related to human, it doesnt matter the location. its my gift. So see me as brother, that's all.
Nice gift, i can tell you it is a rare gift,i don't just see you as a brother but a friend and also a mentor. I may not know you face to face but i know we shall meet some day @surpassinggoogle. Remember this never let us down the minnows because your life mentor a lot of people,keep doing good
gbam, this @surpassinggoogle is another thing all i was thinking was that he is from philippines but now with this yorubor are you using google translation guy must be from osun state at my intuition
Jess , youre everywhere. That's Yoruba right?
I beg the guy know be God oooo,because he can not be everywhere
Thanks for sharing this portal, it's a very good alternative to steemit.com.
Steem on @surpassinggoogle
Thank you bro
Never knew about steemitstage.com, will definitely use it if steemit.com goes down again.
busy.org is good but I like the default look of steemit.com and steemitstage.com will serve the purpose.
Hahaha yes. I do like how steemit is too. Sometimes, i wonder why but i just do. One just needs to get used to it and its loveable
Earlier today, I was unable to access steemit.com and it doesn't occur to me the site was down. I rebooted my phone and shutdown my system but same problem.
Thanks alot bro for sharing this post on alternative root because I was concerned.
You are very welcome
wow I didnt know this thanks again terry for sharing this alternative site.
Also love this punchline thumbs up terry. Im always waiting words like this from you
Thank you
Thank you Kuya Terry. I was struggling to post this morning.
I didn't know this site before. Rock n roll!:)
Have a wonderful Monday!
Yes, thank you much. You too!

Way to go @safrijals. I see you are posting pretty consistently. I am amazed how you can turn a chair, a spider, and flowers into beautiful posts. You are doing quite well to me.
Learn about basic formatting, that helped me lots in making my posts easier to read.
thank informasi
First of all get a niche
Hi @surpassinggoogle
Thanks for this piece of information,i was also trying to access steemit with my web but had little difficulty doing that,but with the help of your post i would be able to find another alternative.
Yes, the comments disappear and its been difficult to vote but it seems to be working now. Tho i am using steemitstage too. Twas created by steemit devs.
Yes,but it is currently working i am using the web now.
Hahaha great.
Yes bro,stay blessed.
I like your idea, I will forgive you a hundred times. It reminds me the character of Kris, Hindu god. Thanks.
when @surpassinggoogle visit my blog, I always make a post about @surpassinggoogle
thank you for the information @surpassinggoogle I had hard time accessing steemit. Tried to use steemitstage.com and here it is its working.
thank you again
I am glad about that. Stay awesome
thank you
This is very informative. Thanks for sharing 😊
Thank you switie. Stay awesome
Thanks @surpassinggoogle reading this kind of lines really boosts my fighting spirit even though my posts doesnt earned that much that ive worked for a minimun of 3 hours. Ill still continue on steeming :)
Yes bro. And a lot of success on steemit is tied to things behind the scenes. So good interaction and relationship building will work, in the dms and chat rooms
Thanks bro for the advises. Hmmm building relationships first thats a great idea :)
Hi @surpassinggoogle Thank you for this information, yesterday I followed the contest you created "who am i" but my post there is no vote from you, is there anything wrong with my post, because posting other people related to contes "who am i" all you vote and resteem, please clue from you, because i need vote from you, thanks
I will get to it. Its seven days before post payout so i have to take it slow cos of voting power etc, so i will be there soon
hi @surpassinggoogle when you will visit my blog ? already 3 day i wait upvote from you.
can you leave me the link
hi @surpassinggoogle, why you have not kept your promise to upvote my post, what is wrong with my post ?
Visited. Nothing wrong with your post. It is just that sometimes i vote before the end of 7 days cos too many votes i vote on and i am only human
thanks my friends @surpassinggoogle, i have to learn a lot from you about steemit, in case of my post, so that my post is better, i need help from you, do you want to help me in steemit?
yes can this my post https://steemit.com/untalented/@agussafrizal/who-am-i-by-agussafrizal-untalented-by-surpassinggoogle-20171015t18258734z
hey buddy, i've put @surpassinggoogle in proxy and @ steemgigs in my witness list. Is there anything I should do again buddy?
Hahaha nothing. You have done much. Thank you. You can join the steemgigs community of discord too but mayb you are already there. Link is underneath my post
hahaha ... account already 7 days in group discord steemgigs. and I'm permitted to use the tags steemgigs in my post .. i love steemit buddy though great appreciation has not come to me ... but i will keep trying
wow! Thanks for this. I always try new website to see if the tools are more easier than the ones i am familiar with. This will also help many of us especially during the 'downtown'. Thanks boss!
Yes bro
@surpassinggoogle I have created a new post about WHO I SAY 2.D and I also have entered the untalented tag 2 ... please visit my friend ,,,
thank you for the information @surpassinggoogle I had hard time accessing steemit. Tried to use steemitstage.com and here it is its working.
Hey @surpassinggoogle (my dear friend Terry)
That is great news for all steemians... I had hard time accessing steemit few times yesterday.....but I can't access to steemit....but....Tried to use steemitstage.com and here its working.
Thank you so much for sharing this valuble uptate about steemit....and I hope everyday from you...please help other steemins....how to success...in this platform...
Cheers~~~~
A great start Terry, I've already started testing a new project and while I'm studying! Thank you @surpassinggoogle
Thanks for giving the information. There can be a lot of benefits in this. This is a very good idea. The time to come is your name. And what is the tag to use.
@surpassinggoogle
In sincerity, i dont understand this post or how to make use of your tips. I'm not techy savvy.... What to do?😞😞😞
@aderonkemi,
The post is simply talking about steemit.com that is currently misbehaving. We get error 504 and even page cannot be displayed.
So, he is advising that we use this other site which is for steemit development department. They actually uses this other site (https://steemitstage.com/) for test run when they want to upgrade or add other features to steemit site.
He also, said they are both the same site with our normal interface. You can also use https://busy.org
So, just copy the link above and paste to avoid being phished.
Understood?
@stevenmosoes
Oh. Thanks so much for expantiating sir @stevenmoses
@aderonkemi,
I have you to thank for reminding of my IT support days.
However, You are most welcome. Will always be at your service.
@surpassinggoogle,
You are much more than better in explanation than even some techy guys. For me you explain even better than me.
You are my role model on steemit and I will continue to follow you. I am looking forward to meeting you one on one soon.
Aye aye sir
I am not tech saavy either. If steemit is working well for you currently. No problem but if you can't open steemit, you can use https://steemitstage.com on your browser alternative but make sure to check any site before you put in your information so people dont steal your password. https://steemitstage.com is safe and ofcourse steemit.com is the ultimate. but if you see any variation like the last one that was used to steal peoples information, dont put in your password. normally for posting on steemit, you dont need you password, so it is better to use your posting key. posting key is findable in your wallet, under permissions. For now, no need to hurry, just pace it. Overtime, you will learn. It is gradual. So what to do now? Nothing!
Do your make up and stay pretty!
Oh! Steemit is working perfectly well at my end. This would have been useful if otherwise. Thanks for your concern for people always.
Exactly
Thank you for love
I am close to finish to article for the second contest snaphot of my Blockchain before coming to steemit.com.. Etc And I will give it a try after that
Have a great time Terry
Great
only using that as the main site is not working for me looks great this is quite quick too :)
Yes
Hi@surpassinggoogle👍👍
Also, I'm thinking something just know.... Being a witness sir, can you also extend your witness service in this likewise situation...... The update you shared just now, help situations of many, so i think if there are others likely development on steemit like this..... You can easily help we steemian by updating us in this likely manner in a monthly basis if not possible everyweek
I will try. I think i may have to be posting more often. Sometimes, i try to not post frequently on purpose but i will try make it more often. problems is i have too much to do but once a month or twice works. My witness role mostly is more of the human to human part
wow!!! I'm glad to here that, now I'm sure to have the best witness..... I want tobsee you in the top 20 soon
e.g i wouldnt have posted twice today but i saw many people in the chats bothered, so i had to look for an option and post about it
I'll be waiting to see the new post up...
a very good post. how should I make your effort into my blog, I've made a new post.
You can drop the link here. i visit hundreds of posts a day, so i may miss some
https://steemit.com/spanish/@jasonmunapasee/benifits-of-cork-fish-20171015t152834988z
generous you..... Hummm...
Thank you,
help upvote buddy.
first i thought it was a phishing site. let's help steemit dev team. site was not worked me for few hrs today. nice info @surpassinggoogle
@resteemia
Yes. We have to be careful. This one though isnt. I put references to @steemitblog and @steemitdev beneath my post. You can read more about steemitstage
you provided it, so nothing to worry ;) @surpassinggoogle
@resteemia
@surpassinggoogle, sorry if I'm late, this is a very positive solicitation in my opinion.
Hi @surpassinggoogle
I wish i had known this earlier today, it would have get me a long way in today journey as i planned it.... The fluctuating server has caused a lot of my plan today but this information you shared is the most useful one at moment
Hahaha me too, i have so so so many unanswered comments and failed votes but it works now
That's good
I was too glad when i reaponded the last time to appreciate you for this good information.....
Thanks for sharing
This is niceeeee. Thankssssss sirrrr 👌
I wish I can join very soooonn. It's gonna be fun.
Yes
Thank you
Now I know. And today again there were problems with the entrance to Steemit.
Yes for some time now but it is being fixed i am sure
how the way so that @surpassinggoogle want to go into my post what I should send a link in your post
Now I will test the blogs you have directed! ^^
nice
