Welcome to the Qurator Tiers update!
As a member of @qurator we already know you post original content and we fully support original quality content, especially from minnows. We send out daily upvotes to all our Qurites if they post, but if they show some participation or invest in @qurator we feel they deserve some better rewards from @qurator. That's where Tiers come in. Below you will find all the members of @qurator and their respective tiers.
NOTE:The Upvote Tiers (1 and 2) are counted 12 PM UTC TIME ON MONDAY and if you failed to upvote before our count your Tier might be lower than expected. Upvote values also decline/change over a 7 day period before the post reaches payout. The time of your upvote might have been $0.01 but by the time the posts reaches payout the values are less/more.
Upvote Tiers
In the past we said that T1 and T2 members need to upvote the Daily Qurator post to gain access to T1/T2. We have now changed this to all @qurator posts. Thus, if you upvote 7+ of any @qurator posts in one week you will gain access to T2 voting. For automated voting we suggest using Steemvoter
The 1% supporters/upvoters...
It has come to our attention that some users are taking advantage of the Upvote Tiers. The original rules were:
TIER | Requirements |
---|---|
Upvoting @qurator 4+ times a week | Tier 1 |
Upvoting @qurator 7+ times a week | Tier 2 |
This was mainly put in play to give Qurator more support towards earning SBD for leases. Most of the SBD we earn go towards our members with leases or payouts for competitions. There have been some members that do upvote our daily posts but by only 1%... this is not support though. We understand that every member has a different amount of SP though. Thus, we will be counting upvotes only if they are worth at least $0.01.
We know some members don't have a lot of SP and even their 100% upvote is not worth $0.01. We will still count your vote if we see a 100% vote even if it's below $0.01.
Below your can see examples of upvotes that will and will not count towards the Tiers:
1% = $0.00 will not be counted
100% = $0.00 will be counted
Any % = at least $0.01 will be counted
I know this might not sit right with some Qurites but the Qurator project cannot support all the Tiers if some users show us support with $0.00 upvotes while they can support the project and all members with a higher upvote. We are not asking for your 100% upvote. We just think it fair that we support the users who support the project and their fellow Qurites.
There are multiple ways to get a higher Tier.
T1-T2 can easily be achieved by upvoting @qurator posts.
T3-T5 are normally for delegations.
Note: Remember Tiers stack so upvoting to get Tier 2 and then Delegating 300SP will place you in Tier 5.
Changes to Tier 0 upvote weights.
It has come to our attention that there are a lot of members that registered with Qurator, but that are not actively supporting the project's growth. This is not a necessity but is always much appreciated. We tend to give more support to those who return the favor. You are not just supporting Qurator but all 780+ members. Most of our profits go toward leases so any upvote helps all of us.
Tier 0 Members are not really active and we respect their choices. We are not forcing anyone to Upvote/Delegate. We just feel it is more fair towards supporters to get more rewards as a token of our appreciation for helping out the Qurator project. It's a group effort.
Tier 0 upvote weights have been decreased.
This way we can award the T1-5 members more since they are actively supporting the project.
If you want to support Qurator more we suggest delegating or upvoting our Daily Qurator posts. This can be automated with Steemvoter (guide to set up a Steemvoter account HERE.
Delegation links:
100 | 200 | 300 | 400 | 500 |
After you click the link you will have to check the value, click next and then enter your steemit NAME and Private Active Key to delegate. Please remember to leave at least 50SP in your account!
What if I upvote and delegate?
YES, delegations and upvotes stack.
Example: Delegating 300SP and upvoting the Daily Qurator 7+ time a week will place you in a T5 membership slot.
Current Tiers with their Upvote Weight and Upvote Worth
We currently have around 69 133 SP (up 15 845 from last week) and this seems to be the sweet spot around 70K. With more support from members and investors we will see higher numbers. Our next target is 80K and we could see that number this week! =)
TIER 0 | TIER 1 | TIER 2 | TIER 3 | TIER 4 | TIER 5 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
0.2% | 2.1% | 3.1% | 5.1% | 6.2% | 7.2% |
$0.19 | $0.76 | $0.95 | $1.72 | $1.91 | $2.29 |
Calculated at 80% voting power (currently higher at 90%+)
Upvote Weights might change depending on our Voting Power
Qurator Selfvote
Our account is now big enough that a selfvote will make a big difference in the long run. Most of our profits go towards leases and our members. Our selfvote will start this week, thus the voting weights will take a dip and then from next week the values should increase. With our selfvote and we can show extra support later on to all our members. We will do the upvotes near the end of our post payout to ensure all our members upvoting us will get some extra curation in. ;)
Comments and thoughts on this are more than welcome. Feel free to DM me on Discord as well: @scrooger

As soon as this post goes live we update our bot and the new voting weights will be activated. If there are any errors (we are only human and might make a mistake =P) with your current upvote weight please contact @scrooger on Discord.

Sorry, but i don't get any up from qurator to my yesterday's and the day before yesterday's posts. Can you explain me why?
We made several announcements on Discord as well as the last few posts that the @qurator bot will be taking a nap to recharge voting power. That time has passed and the bot was activated again when this tier post went out.
Exactly the problem I'm gonna ask. Last 3 posts of mine(each at a day) wasn't upvoted. I always wanted to upgrade to Tier 5 but this inconsistency makes me hesitant.

I see. So those post within the nap hour will be back voted or ignored?
We will not be voting them, since that would just bring us back to square one. You can however EDIT and UPDATE one of them to ping the bot and get the upvote =)
Great idea to add the self vote near the end, extra curation rewards to all who support!
Blessings to the team and all active members!
Extra curation indeed. But since Qurator is getting pretty strong that selfvote will be awesome to get more SP from the market as well as renewing the current one. Curation is a bonus! =)
Me encanta la iniciativa. Gran idea de apoyo a los usuarios activos. Super proyecto de @qurator.
Just added qurator to my steemvoter account...so should be good to go for T2...in seven days. Thank you for the reminder! :D
Awesome! That upvote will go a long way to keeping our leases in check! Thanks =)
Thank you for your support. Good luck to you and Kind!
You are most welcome. =)
i want to join to be a qurator member,
but my sbd is enough for registrasion
You can always purchase Steem/SBD... having said that, an upvote bot is unlikely to be approved for membership.
Excelent Job thanks for this. Hace a Nice day ☺️☺️
You are welcome and thank you. =)
Looks like I didn't get upvote for two days! When do @qurator usually upvote post?

So @qurator wake up with full energy. :) That's fine!
Thank you so much for making such a wonderful community and rewarding minnow to grow.
amazing @qurator, always successful and always can give the best, congratulations for new member, welcome? hopefully be one family ..
Growing by the week, you see the growth on weekly posts, it's amazing @qurator
