Well, I'm really screwed now guys. Luckily i have a 0.6.1 backup to json file.
It will not sync, my computer just overheats and shuts off, then it tries to restart from scratch every time.
I need to somehow use the web wallet with my kencode bts account.
Possible? how? please help me get moved over to the web wallet.
thank you,
  ken

Nope, it's still sitting at zero. It has not tried to reconnect since I posted that last get_info. Here's a fresh one:

Should I delete some folders or files or something?

The low blockchain_average_delegate_participation indicates that your chain has diverged from the main fork. I think a good way to fix this for now is to move your chain folder out of the bitshares app data folder and let it rebuild when you restart the client. There are also flags you can pass to the bitshares_client executable on the CLI that are supposed to work for achieving this:

--resync-blockchain

you will have to resync from scratch probably.

we had to last night for the first time in a long time. nuke the chain folder and restart.

the network is still having issues however.

Plus I backup my wallet every new version just to make sure it'll always work as an intended.

My computer is just too old for this.
I need to somehow use the web wallet with my kencode bts account.
Possible? how? i've got hundreds of euros tied up in the 0.6.1 wallet, please help me get moved over to the web wallet.
thank you,

No difference anymore between 0.8.1 and 0.8.0.

You got stuck because you synced up too far on the old version after the hardfork--you will have to resync from scratch probably. We are thinking of ways to address this for future releases.

If you are getting a "Not Connected" error or having trouble syncing, try the following troubleshooting procedures:
Change how many nodes your client tries to connect to and the maximum it will try to connect to by typing the following command in the console:
network_set_advanced_node_parameters {"desired_number_of_connections":50, "maximum_number_of_connections":100}
If that doesn't work, then try connecting to some nodes manually using the following commands:
network_add_node "107.170.211.129:1700" add
network_add_node "80.240.133.79:1776" add
network_add_node "188.226.195.137:60696" add
network_add_node "76.74.170.79:54200" add
network_add_node "176.9.234.166:1700" add
network_add_node "180.153.142.120:1777" add
network_add_node "162.243.220.142:1777" add
network_add_node "84.238.140.192:42577" add
network_add_node "5.101.106.138:1778" add
network_add_node "69.164.192.144:1700" add
network_add_node "192.168.0.14:1776" add

network_add_node "106.185.26.162:1981" add
