Steemmonsters is behind on nodes...What does that mean???
Hello everyone good morning. If you have been playing Steemmonsters as of lately then you most likely came across this error.
It looks like the Steem Monsters node is behind on blocks! Please reload the page in a few minutes to see if the transaction has gone through.
This error message appears almost every time you try to do a transaction on Steemmonsters.com. This has caused a lot of inconvenience for sure. Here are some of the issues I noticed personally.
People find it 'more difficult' to complete their daily quest because they don't have a chance to play-I didn't even get to play a single match in my fire splinter quest yesterday. And I say 'more difficult' because Steemmonster already has a matchmaking problem where players get matched up unfairly with other players who are very high rank.
New players who bought starter sets to get in on the action is greeted by this unwelcoming message as well. This is definitely a bad first impression for them, wouldn't you agree?
There haven't been any official updates from @steemmonsters about this issue yet that I'm aware of. This is poor customer service in my opinion because people have been posting about this issue for about 2 days now, including myself and still no response. I made a post about this almost immediately when I first got the error message. Check it here
Also since no official statement was made my @steemmonsters about this issue it leaves a lot of room for users to speculate and spread rumors, which is not good publicity for @steemmonsters and worse for steem as the price of steem is trading at it's lowest the last time I checked.
So, is Steemmonsters broken? I don't know but something needs fixing. And if @steemmonsters developers are unsure what the problem is and need more time to investigate the issue, then at least make a public announcement to reassure users that someone is hard at work trying to fix this issue. It's the right thing to do.
That's is my 2 cents on this matter right now. I hope Steemmonster recover from this issue as quickly as possible before things snowball out of control.
Also before you go, spare a few seconds to leave your thoughts on this matter in the comment section. (make it short and meaningful)
Recent updates!!!
@aggroed just posted in the @steemmonsters discord that the 'server is back' . It seems this had something to do with the error message we'av been getting. After he posted this message, I was able to play 3 Steemmonsters battle without encountering the annoying pop-up message. Leave a comment if you're able to play now without any issues.
I was able to grab a booster pack. The message appeared every once in a whole, but it was not as often as before.
Where on earth have you found that message from @aggroed? I've been going through the rooms, but couldn't find anything

Sorry for the late reply- My system is under attack by a nasty Ransomware virus. I found the message from @aggroed in the steemmonsters discord- the general room.
Thanks. Someone hd already pointed out the 'search' feature. Believe it or not, I had never noticed it before, lol
I hope you will be ablfe to get rid of the nasty virus.

Thanks, things are a little bit better now since I reset my pc- I didn't have many options it was either that or I find some money to pay the criminal who did this in bitcoin on the dark web for a decryption key that was not a guarantee. I lost a lot of valuable info but good thing my steem private key was elsewhere. And to be honest I'm not 100% sure if the virus is gone .
Ouch. Having to reset the whole thing is like a nightmare. I know all about it. Which reminds me I have to back up my system again, it has been to long ago..
But you say you're not sure if it is gone... does that mean you used a restore point? It should be gone if you do a clean reinstall of your operating system - start from zero again, no?
sorry for late reply. The issue is resolve now, I have learn my lesson the hard way. I will try to keep my files back up , along with maintaining my system so this doesn't happen again.
There is some sort of bottle neck is the system they are working it out, is runing better right now.
