RE: Using steemauto to support the community
Thank you so much!
Fixed -50% seems too much for the downvotes, many rounds consist of more than 2 posts so your downvote mana would run out.
A scaled follow would be better for us, as we can calculate the expected follows to each vote that way and prevent "overvoting" below 0.
Fixed 2% for upvotes is safe for the forseeable future :D
You're welcome, glad this is happening! I was going for fixed -50% after I looked over the downvote history, looked like it wasn't super frequent. I'll switch it up to scaled and see how that sustains itself. Depending on how much 2% up bleeds me out in conjunction with the other trails I'm following, I might be able to turn it up a little bit.
The downvotes depend on the amount of submissions by our delegators. The admin team tries to make sure there's at least two, as we use 125% each round (12 hours). But when the delegators are active it can be more, the maximum has been 8 so far I think. So 50% would only work when activity is very low ;)
For me personally scaled is more important because we calculate the value of the downvotes and adapt when we would vote < 0$, which would be kind of a waste. It's better when all the trailing votes adapt accordingly.
Good points, scaled it is! Already made the change.
