RE: !!SPECIAL!!❓Answering Common Questions: What questions do YOU have?❓!!SPECIAL!!

in #ama7 years ago

what's your favorite food? No seriously, what is the upvote length of time before resetting. I get 3 cents and it is down to 2 cents.. now my voting power is around like 50%. So what happens when it runs out. I have zero? When does it reset.. I think you can tell where I am going with this. Hope so ..haha :)

Sort:  

You can always vote as much as you want. There is no hard limit where you'd get a message like 'You've ran out of votes.' The vote power % is what creates more of a 'soft limit.'

So specifically to your question.

  • Every 24 hours we regenerate 20% vote power % (this is continuous vs being at a specific time...so roughly 1% an hour.)
  • Each full, 100% vote (from the slider bar) we cast since the latest hard fork reduces out vote power % by 2%. (before the HF it deducted 0.5%.
  • So to keep you vote % up there...we can cast 10 - 100% votes, 20-50% votes, or a 1000-1% votes and still have the regen rate keep up. Vote more than this and it will drop over time.

Your vote power % is what determines how much of the MAX $ you give when upvoting a post (as well as curation rewards you would earn.) So if you gave 10 cents at 100% vote power %, you'd give 5 cents at 50% and 1 cent at 10%.

OMG lol.. I will have to reread this after 100 cups of coffee .. what?? ok.. I will think on this one .. so quit voting for 24 hours and it goes back to 100%?

Let me see if I can help with this @rebeccabe.

Steemd.com/(insert username with @) is a good site to check your VOTING POWER.

Every 24 hours 20% of your power is restored.

Say you're at 60% voting power now, it would take 48 hours of zero votes to get back to 100%

Why would we want 100% voting power? It gives maximum $ value to upvoted post.
Mine is (ahem) at $0.20 at 100%, but if im at 20%voting power it is only about $0.02

Before June 20th, every upvote deducts 0.5% from your voting power. After the changes with hardfork 19 though, it now decreases by 2% per vote. So recommended is 10 votes per day (which will take 20% off your voting power, and will allow it to be at 100% again after 24hours)

But again as @sykochica said, no hard rule about it.

If you're at 80 percent or higher when you stop voting yes. If you're at zero, it'll take five days to fully Regen.

thanks :) you are the best

Hehe, np. And I'm a huge fan of a good chicken parmegian.

It only goes up by 20% every 24 hours. So you need to post 10 or less posts every 24 hours (i.e, 10 x 2% = 20%. That will top you back up to 100%. I've found the maths very confusing too! More coffee needed!

Good to know.
