Can someone explain to me the steps I need to take to sync my wallet?

I mined some coins while it was not synced, and now it won't sync at all.
Join the guys in IRC they are quick to answer issues.

If you were not synced and mining you may have created a fork in which case those coins exist only to you not the network.

you should go to you %appdata% Globalboosty folder and delete everything except the wallet.dat file, and the globalboost.conf file if you made one.

rerun the program and it will try syncing from scratch but still has the transaction details in case any of those blocks you mined are legit.

while syncing click on the "?" button and navigate to debug console

type these 4 lines, hitting enter after each line;

those nodes should get you on the correct blockchain. its over 700 blocks high now.
Do not begin mining until after it is fully synced



I did what you said and I got my wallet to sync, but now the coins I mined disappeared. I mined for 2 full days and I have nothing?? That doesn't make any sense!! And the transaction I made shows in the transaction tab but the coins are not on C-cex?

Is this a joke? I don't understand? 

If you were mining your own chain, solving your own blocks, and sending transactions to no one else, then no its not a joke and unfortunately those coins never existed on the main chain.  you can look at the transaction id by right clicking on the outgoing transaction and viewing details.  copy then paste it here on the block explorer http://www.[Suspicious link removed]/index.php?blockexplorer=BSTY to verify that transaction was never seen, or check your address which would show a balance of mined coins...
Sorry for your loss of time, it happens, and it sucks.

You wrote "rerun the program and it will try syncing from scratch but still has the transaction details in case any of those blocks you mined are legit." But I deleted the blocks folder so of coarse there will be no blocks found! This pc of mine is very powerful and it has 0 blocks, 0 coins!!

Just wasted over 50 hours of electricity, good luck with your coin, I'm out!
incorrect, the blocks folder will sync the correct blocks. the wallet.dat stores the keys to your addresses AND the transactions you've made. as it resyncs on the correct chain, if anything was valid it would be noted. unfortunately the second you ended up on a fork, the reward was never broadcast to anyone but yourself, and whatever difficulty that block was, is what difficulty you mined possibly more blocks at over the next 50 hours.  Hopefully having run your cpu running 100watts wont bankrupt you...
*ps not my coin, just advising... true devs can shut me up if you all wish
