Good day,
I switched off the Steemvoter after I first reduced the rules to 50 accounts and then realized that I do not like all the posts of the accounts that were on it. Besides that I already joined @crowdfundedwhale and @better which are voting on my behalf.
The other reason is that I have a lot of time since I am now in a safe space where I do not have to pay rent and therefore have a lot of time to sit in front of the computer to vote.
I was very excited to see my curation reward going up from around 2 STEEM to 15 STEEM a week after using Steemvoter but to always check if an account is already on the list in order to not double vote was not convenient. I also like to use my SP to look for noobies and support them instead of the already established users.
There were also some top earners who never gave me a vote for my marketing activity. Maybe because they already have money and therefore do not have to work as much as I do. To support them is silly because they do not value my work for the success of the platform but profit from it at the same time.
I make now around 5 STEEM through manual voting compared to 15 STEEM with the auto-voter but I have a much better feeling. I am only voting for stuff I really like and occasionally vote after a whale for stuff they like in the hope for a higher reward (mostly they vote for good stuff).
I know that I can make a lot more STEEM by betting on the outcome of sport events and am unsure if I should put them on auto or not because it is going on my nerves to see so many betting posts. Maybe auto them and mute them at the same time, lol.
I stopped now all marketing because I can make the same amount of money by posting a funny pic as when I am posting that I introduced Steemit in person to 30-50 people each day on the street.
Now I am trying to write good content instead, let us see how that will work out :D
Additional stuff:
My tactics of following every account I vote for gives me much more followers than before when I did not do it.
To promote a post on the steemit.chat channels more than once gives not more votes. I often post it in the channels and then every 2 hours again but there is not much difference after the first promotion.
See you later,

Now i understand the chalk highlighter!

I've been voting manually for the entire time, like 5 months. But I finally made a bot, which i still have mixed feelings about. I don't like every post from every author, so that's where my issue lies. I turned my bot off.........but ontofractal is the one I used, which was very pleasant. He is great, very helpful.

Thanks for your vote stellabelle! I am looking for a good mix of both worlds. A bot is like a dog, if you don´t take care of it, it will cause havoc (what a bad example haha).
Maybe with premium membership (500 max slots on steemvoter) I can vote for all of my followers at once, so it will be fair again.
