RE: Qurator Tiers and Upvote Weights Update - 14/11/2017 - Big change to our upvote tiers
Hi there @qurator, I have just learned about qurator, and have been spending a little bit of time going through some of the latest posts and understanding how the whole system works. I think this post right here is what finally spurred me to leave this comment and join @qurator.
The system you guys are implementing :
1% = $0.00 will not be counted
100% = $0.00 will be counted
Any % = at least $0.01 will be counted
Though clearly not based in mathematical sense, is based on the intent to lift minnows up, and that is something I definitely can get behind. Will be signing up and jumping to tier 2 immediately.
God SPeed Brethren.
Yes, the math behind it is not to let the minnows who has a $0.00 100% weight be excluded from the tiers. They are indeed the ones needing the most support. We just had to implement the rule since many users with loads of Steem Power and Voting power was showing "support" by a 1% upvote worth nothing. Thus just upvoting to show that they upvoted. The whole Qurator model is based on support we get from the community. The more support we get, the more support we can give. =)
Looking forward to your registration. =)
That's great! I have sent in my registration over Steemit.chat to @gingerninja!
