Bot update
The new bot has seen 2 weeks of vigerous testing an bug fixes. Finally time to switch the main @qurator account to the new bot. The old bot is now sleeping and the new bot will kick in as soon as Qurator reaches 100% voting power.
Welcome to the Qurator Tiers update!
As a member of @qurator we already know you post original content and we fully support original quality content, especially from minnows. We send out daily upvotes to all our Qurites if they post, but if they show some participation or invest in @qurator we feel they deserve some better rewards from @qurator. That's where Tiers come in. Below you will find all the members of @qurator and their respective tiers.
Upvote Tiers
In the past we said that T1 and T2 members need to upvote the Daily Qurator post to gain access to T1/T2. We have now changed this to all @qurator posts. Thus, if you upvote 7+ of any @qurator posts in one week you will gain access to T2 voting. For automated voting we suggest using Steemvoter
The 1% supporters/upvoters...
It has come to our attention that some users are taking advantage of the Upvote Tiers. The original rules were:
TIER | Requirements |
---|---|
Upvoting @qurator 4+ times a week | Tier 1 |
Upvoting @qurator 7+ times a week | Tier 2 |
This was mainly put in play to give Qurator more support towards earning SBD for leases. Most of the SBD we earn go towards our members with leases or payouts for competitions. There have been some members that do upvote our daily posts but by only 1%... this is not support though. We understand that every member has a different amount of SP though. Thus, we will be counting upvotes only if they are worth at least $0.01.
We know some members don't have a lot of SP and even their 100% upvote is not worth $0.01. We will still count your vote if we see a 100% vote even if it's below $0.01.
Below your can see examples of upvotes that will and will not count towards the Tiers:
1% = $0.00 will not be counted
100% = $0.00 will be counted
Any % = at least $0.01 will be counted
I know this might not sit right with some Qurites but the Qurator project cannot support all the Tiers if some users show us support with $0.00 upvotes while they can support the project and all members with a higher upvote. We are not asking for your 100% upvote. We just think it fair that we support the users who support the project and their fellow Qurites.
NOTE:The Upvote Tiers (1 and 2) are counted 12 PM UTC TIME ON MONDAY and if you failed to upvote before our count your Tier might be lower than expected. Upvote values also decline/change over a 7 day period before the post reaches payout. The time of your upvote might have been $0.01 but by the time the posts reaches payout the values are less/more.
This way we can award the T1-5 members more since they are actively supporting the project.
If you want to support Qurator more we suggest delegating or upvoting our Daily Qurator posts. This can be automated with Steemvoter (guide to set up a Steemvoter account HERE.
Delegation links:
100 | 200 | 300 | 400 | 500 |
After you click the link you will have to check the value, click next and then enter your steemit NAME and Private Active Key to delegate. Please remember to leave at least 50SP in your account!
What if I upvote and delegate?
YES, delegations and upvotes stack.
Example: Delegating 300SP and upvoting the Daily Qurator 7+ time a week will place you in a T5 membership slot.
Current Tiers with their Upvote Weight and Upvote Worth
Changes to Tier 0 upvote weights.
It has come to our attention that there are a lot of members that registered with Qurator, but that are not actively supporting the project's growth. This is not a necessity but is always much appreciated. We tend to give more support to those who return the favor. You are not just supporting Qurator but all 860+ members. Most of our profits go toward leases so any upvote helps all of us.
Tier 0 Members are not really active and we respect their choices. We are not forcing anyone to Upvote/Delegate. We just feel it is more fair towards supporters to get more rewards as a token of our appreciation for helping out the Qurator project. It's a group effort.
All Tier 0 members will be upvoted with the @qurator-tier-0 account. With the main @qurator account being close to 125K and not being able to upvote smaller than 0.5% the second account had to be created in order to support tier 0 members.
We currently have around 123 000 SP. We will be staying at 123K for the next few week or two then we will drop back to around 115K unless we get some more investors or some more support from bigger upvotes. Currently shuffling around some leases. All the profits are now going towards renewing leases.
TIER 0 (upvotes from @qurator-tier-0) | TIER 1 | TIER 2 | TIER 3 | TIER 4 | TIER 5 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
4% | 0.5% | 1.5% | 3% | 4% | 5.5% |
$0.09 | $0.14 | $0.43 | $0.71 | $1.00 | $1.28 |
With all the tier 0 members being upvoted by @qurator-tier-0 the main @qurator account should see some better Voting Power regeneration and the upvotes will be worth more as the voting power recharges.
Calculated at around 80% voting power via Steemnow.com
Upvote Weights might change depending on our Voting Power
Qurator Selfvote
Our account is now big enough that a selfvote will make a big difference in the long run. Most of our profits go towards leases and our members. Our selfvote will start this week, thus the voting weights will take a dip and then from next week the values should increase. With our selfvote and we can show extra support later on to all our members. We will do the upvotes near the end of our post payout to ensure all our members upvoting us will get some extra curation in. ;)
Mutual Project support
We have formed and alliance with the Silver Gold Community. @silvergoldbotty will be upvoting one @qurator post a day and we will be upvoting one @silvergoldbotty post a day. This is experimental for now. The reasoning behind it is that we will be able to generate more SBD per week and with more SBD we will be able to better keep up with our leases as well getting some new ones. Thus, even though the voting weight will decrease the actual value of the votes will increase since we will have more SP later on. =)
If this goes well we will look into mutual support between other projects as well. =)
All Tiers and their respective members.

Note: Tier 0 members could earn a lot more by showing @qurator support by upvoting the Daily Qurator. Have a look at Tier 2 weights compared to T0. That's almost quadruple the Upvote Worth.

I understand nothing to the bot really.....I have to edit and edit and edit my post, even when there are more than 24 hours between my posts....I never post more than once per day and yet, ther were multiple times where my posts didn't get an upvote :-(

With an uptick in members, the old bot was not really handling the load very well. So we have upgraded to a bot that should miss less votes.
A key difference between the old bot and the new one is that active people get checked more regularly. So if you post and comment on other's posts or your own, you will have multiple chances to get your vote without the edit and update

The new bot has been active since 2 hours ago. As long as you keep being active it is unlikely your upvote will be missed from the time the new bot went into production
I checked your history : qurator upvote @luigi-the-gnome/the-beautiful-streetlamps-les-jol… (5.5%) 1 day ago
Did you not get an upvote slightly less than 24 hours ago

i am new to @qurator, but read the rules and did up vote posts on the page (i thought 4-5, but not sure when the cut off dates are). although i am still in Tier 0 - curious to know if there are certain "cut off" dates for the 4 votes per week (say, if you voted 4 times on one day but 1 was from the previous week - is that not counted?). Also curious because I voted re-steems and not sure if those count either. I want to move up a tier but I think I'm doing it wrong and also spending my votes in the wrong way. would love some help, thanks!

The voting is only counted on @qurator posts. Not resteems. The cutoff time is Monday 12PM UTC time. Checking in and voting before then will secure your tier for the next week. =)

Hey guys from qurator, I haven't been posting for 2 weeks and longer, but I have upvoted every one of your posts from then and yesterday I made a post and wasn't upvoted, even though I am Tier 2.

Thank you as always @qurator <3 I am not sure if the bot missed me or if my recent posts might not meet the appropriate criteria? (I think they do, though). I am still getting aquainted with this new tablet I am working from, so please forgive me for not reaching out on discord for help <3 Much Love!
