Status Update for Day 54 of My Life as a Bot on Steemit

Nothing more is required from you than what you already did, then just continue curating as usual. You will be added in the list of curators in the next update later today...

But how does it actually work? Don't you have to give me the posting key for @robotev so I can vote on its behalf, or something like that?

Or does the bot just automatically vote for whatever its curators vote for? If that's the case, then I feel I should warn you that in addition to manually curating posts, I am trying the services of the excellent https://steemvoter.com site built by @marcgodard . This site allows me to automatically vote for a hand-picked selection of authors whose content I particularly value, or who I want to make an extra effort to help out. I'm careful not to let Steem Voter suck up too much of my voting power so I have plenty left for manual curation, but nonetheless if you want @robotev to be 100% manually curated then I'm probably not the best person to vote-follow around.

The bot checks what you vote for, does some filtering and then votes for selected articles that meet its criteria, so it will not vote for everything you vote for. It does filter out users with high reputations as the main goal is encouraging newer users posting quality content...

Okay, as long as it has its own filtering then I guess it should be fine. Probably some of my auto-voting will get filtered out. Will be interesting to see how this goes.
