HF21 Scheduled For August 27th, What Does That Mean To You?
https://steemit.com/hf21/@steemitblog/hf21-release-tagged
Well, the fighting is over and we need to prepare for HF21, it all comes down to testing and the drop now... The Hardfork has been announced and let me set some expectations for those of you who haven't been here for a hardfork or those of you who were too new to understand what went on.
The code has now been officially released there shouldn't be any further changes to the HF unless bugs are discovered.
- Between now and Aug 27th Witnesses can install the new code and (hopefully this will be invisible to users)
- On August 27th or after when 17 of the top 20 Witnesses are running the code it will become the new official version.
What to Expect:
- The exchanges usually go down for a while, sometimes for as long as 2 weeks, so plan accordingly.
- Nearly every hardfork has created some unexpected behavior or outright bugs. Examples: Reward pool being empty or overfull, Resource Credits not working as expected. So, just expect there to be some issues.
- Fighting, Steemians barely need a reason to fight, but price changes up or down and hardforks are some of our favorite fighting topics.
- Strong reactions good and bad and if anything goes wrong the "blame game". :)
- A return to stability. We have survived all the previous Hardforks and will will survive this one too.
Testing and Acceptance of the Hardfork is up to the witnesses that make the decision to run the new code. They are our first line of protection and it is a serious job.
If you have concerns or questions about HF21 talk to the top 20 witnesses.

Questions, Concerns or Comments? Let's talk about it in the comments.
This HF must be the most tested ever in the steem blockchain so, despite the controversy and my bad feelings regarding what this HF21 is bringing, I hope they will not delay anymore its deployment. The sooner the better
I am ready to be done with it as well.
It better be the most tested, it is touching so many things, frankly I think that is reckless, but here we go
Panic now and avoid the rush?
Meh. It can’t possibly be more of a fustercluck than the 24 hours following HF20. We survived that, and development then accelerated. So I’m not worried about HF21.

I think we will survive.
I also think we will go through all of the same issues!
:)
And now we remember those days fondly... remember that blissful week when we stepprd away from our screens and the world didnt collapse? Ahhhhh....

Hahahha... I was actually on a roadtrip so it was perfect timing. I thought it was HILARIOUS.. but then I wasn't living off steem. But now no one can live off steem, coz the price is so low, so theres that. I did love all the drama though, so like everyone, Im making popcorn!!

This is good advice.
relax and get some dPorn.
I've already got it. You know any decent cop porn?
How prepared can we be? We have survived so far so whatever happens will happen even if we're kicking and screaming!
Well I think that those of us who have been through it know what to expect.
As @preparedwombat pointed out as well.
However, the newer people have no idea. :)
We will survive.
Best part!
There will be hiccups....like last time, when we all get into a black hole....VP down to null. Experience brings knowledge, hope this time we can expect no major hiccups and sit enjoy the new release...

go to steem-engine.com.In case everything goes down, I can blame other people. That always worked. I don't have to look at myself. Other people are the problem, not me.
However, If everything goes as planned. I'm here to tell you, that I supported everything and this HF was basically my idea. You're welcome, guys :D
Ha, I am with you. Or against you, depending on whether you are right or not.

Hopefully by November 2019 steem will be over $1
Or $3 lol
hmm, hopefully, but I see no evidence that is likely to happen.

go to steem-engine.com.You see chbartist, the guy you said was flagged for rewards abuse and powered down is back and in full swing. Seems to have been back less than two weeks and he's already managed close to two thousand with use of bid bots. Basically for taking what amounts to three paragraphs and stretching them out in sentences with pictures intertwined to make his post appear larger, then he adds some diatribe at the end. Now he seems to be running for witness. So much for the new steem.
yeah it is annoying for sure. He did power down some, likely still is.
That is why I am putting my energy in Tribes.
