Tiers Update 1.jpg


For more information on how to join Qurator click HERE

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 each Sunday 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


SteemvoterIn 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

The 1% supporters/upvoters...


It has come to our attention that some users are taking advantage of the Upvote Tiers. The original rules were:

TIERRequirements
Upvoting @qurator 4+ times a weekT1
Upvoting @qurator 7+ times a weekT2

This was mainly put in play to give Qurator more support towards earning SBD for leases. All 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, starting this week we will 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 clearly 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.


Direct Steem Deposit Tiers.


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 and direct steem deposit towards leases. We have change to the days that you will stay in a tier from 30 days to 40 to be more profitable for our members and supporters. By sending Steem directly to @qurator you can get a higher Tier and we can get better leases to support all our members.

4 Steem = Tier 1 for 40 days
6 Steem = Tier 2 for 40 days
8 Steem = Tier 3 for 40 days
10 Steem = Tier 4 for 40 days
12 Steem = Tier 5 for 40 days

Note: Remember Tiers stack so upvoting to get Tier 2 and then sending 6 Steem for Tier 3 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 480+ members. Most of our profits go toward leases so any upvote helps all of us.

Supporting Qurator with Upvotes/Delegation means you are supporting all the members within Qurator. We use all funds to grow the @qurator account. Thus, all who helps out with the growth of Qurator is helping out with the support towards the Qurator Community.

T0 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.

Check below how you can jump up in Tiers by supporting Qurator.


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 53 288 SP (up 4850 from last week) and this seems to be the sweet spot around 50K. With more support from members and investors we will see higher numbers. Our next target is 60K and we should see that number this week! =)


TIER 0TIER 1TIER 2TIER 3TIER 4TIER 5
0.7%4.2%5.7%7.1%8.5%10%
$0.06$0.39$0.49$0.61$0.74$0.86

Current Values at 69.0% Voting Power, these values are some of the lowest we have seen so far. We saw a MASSIVE increase in new members and older members advancing into higher tiers. The upvote weights dropped quite a bit, but we have new leases in the market that would hopefully bring us to 60K+ SP. So the lower upvotes will only be temporary.

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


All Tiers and their respective members.

Thank you


With 560 members Qurator is still going strong and we are now generating constant Steem/SBD to keep supporting leases. Thank you for all your support and feedback so far. Qurator is so proud to be helping out so many Qurites!

Is it 2 STEEM or 2 SBD for Tier 0 registration?

You have the freedom to choose whichever.

Steem or SBD

Well, I guess I will have to choose 2 STEEM since it would be cheaper that way.

Or you could choose 2 SBD and provide extra benefit to everyone!

Good luck, great service.

I have sent 12 steem to you. what is the next step @qurator

We suggest you read this post first https://steemit.com/qurator/@qurator/qurator-update-3-some-guidelines-and-tier-related-changes

In the meantime we will put your account in for review. =)

I was wrong because I sent too early

Agreed with all.
We need more active users. It's not a easy path ... but I believe in qurator.
Great work 😁

We do indeed! =)

I sent 2 STEEM and assume that's all that's required for registration? It wasn't totally clear to us noobs.
I guess I just wait.

yes, now you just have to wait it out when you account gets approved. =)

How can I ask for my account to be approved?

You normally contact @scrooger on Discord.

Here you can see more details on Qurator https://steemit.com/qurator/@qurator/qurator-update-3-some-guidelines-and-tier-related-changes

Have seen your comment here and put your account in for approval. =)

We have reviewed your account and you have been approved! You can go ahead and send the registration fee. =)

Thank you very much. I just sent the amount for the registration.

Great to see this community growing every week @qurator awesome Team effort.

Thanks @joanstewart, glad that you are growing with us and having fun with it all! =)

Appreciate the support and keep on doing your thing, STEEM on!

new tab is terrible..Hey, @qurator and the team behind it. I just wanted to say thank you for all the good work you do with this project. I believe that projects like this one who only approved quality authors will be very important for the blockchain, especially now that we get so many new users who post low quality content. Finding posts from the

Anyway, just wanted to say thanks. I haven't really participated in the community asides from paying the registration fee some time ago, but I will be adding you to the autovoter today. I don't use Steemvoter, but instead Steemauto, but I think it will be just as fine.

Hi @valth

What a lovely message! Thanks mate, really appreciate it. We try our best to keep the good in and the bad out. You are right that NEW tab is a nightmare! I tend to never look at it, just makes me angry.

We appreciate the support you are sending our way. The more we grow the better we can support our community. =) Haven't heard of Steemauto but if you say it will be just fine, then I am sure it will be. Much appreciated. Qurator and all its members appreciate it. =)

Hehe, I get completely understand why you get angry! There is just so much spam and low quality content there. I don't understand why some people believe they will make a lot of money by posting 2-4 sentences about something, or by copy-pasting from other sources..

Steemauto has a feature where you can become a fan of an author, and it will automatically upvote all new posts with your set vote weight. I suppose this is pretty much the same as Steemvoter?

My account was approved. I was considering delegating 300sp to reach tier 5, with 7+ upvotes a week. Are there detailed instructions on how to do this?

Whoohoo! Welcome aboard! There are many ways to delegate and many posts about it. The easiest way would be to follow this link. It is for 300 SP delegation.

https://v2.steemconnect.com/sign/delegateVestingShares?delegator=allforthegood&delegatee=qurator&vesting_shares=615848.999999%20VESTS

Other than that you can use steemvoter to automate you daily upvote to Qurator.

We normally help out on Discord as it is a bit faster to communicate with. Come and say hi and feel free to direct any questions to @scoorger on Discord. =)

Thank you! I just went through the link and delegated the 300sp. What next? Do I need to let someone know? Will I get automatically upvoted at level 5 once a day? I thought if I post my questions here it might be helpful to someone else.

Awesome, thanks! Yes, we check our account once a day for any delegations and then make the necessary updates in our bot. Saw your delegation and will update you in our bot today. =) Welcome to Tier 5! =)

Hi Dan!

Busy as always but doing pretty good! Think it's awesome that you got your Dad set up and ready to blog! Really cool! I think there is quite a large community of older members here on Steemit and it's a great way for them to make some extra money while they keep busy. =)

Will put his account in for review and let you know on this comment once it clears. =)

Thanks for all the support so far! =)

P.S. Did you hear anything from sndbox?

G

Hi Dan!

Good news! Your dad has been approved! We looked at his blog and the only issues we could find was image sourcing, since you are going to help him with that we gave him the thumbs up and he is ready to join. =)

Hope you are doing well, especially with the price of Steem aiming for the moon! =)

Cheers mate,

G

Awesome, will get your dad set up!

I know that all the tech stuff might be a bit hard and we discussed it when approving him. With time he will get a lot better. =)

He can always pop in and ask us some questions if he needs any help with anything.

Oh, registration is 2steem and T5 is 12steem for 40 days. Hope that is ok with you, we can do 8steem for T3 and then count his upvotes, that should be fine to put him in T5 as well. =)

Hmmm...no word from @sndbox yet. How did they notify her? I am sitting on the edge of my seat waiting to hear from them! =)

Thanks again for nominating me. Guess if I can't get my project approved I will start posting more often in my @scrooger account and get that approved instead. Will see how it goes. It's pretty exciting!

Cheers mate,

G
