For the past year or so Qurator has been using TIERS to determine each upvote. The tiers started a long time ago and they worked pretty well back then but with so many changes on Steemit and the members ever growing we thought it is time to make a change to a system that is much simpler. HF20 also played a role and we can now do things that were not possible in the past. 

We would like to get some feedback from our members before we change anything. The new system will have simplicity in mind and will hopefully make it easier to get the maximum value out of your Qurator membership.

# <center>Goodbye Tiers, Hello Multipliers. </center>

### The short version

- No more Tiers
- Move to a Multiplier system where you get an upvote worth 10 times more than the SP you delegate
- Supporting Qurator with upvotes/delegation will let your MULTIPLIER grow to a maximum of 12 times
- Less admin concerning your Tier
- Delegate what you can afford and reap the rewards while supporting the community
- Bonus rewards for Delegators

## The longer version

- The MULTIPLIER

Everyone Starts on a  MULTIPLIER  of 10

Current members
*Delegating 1 - 4 999SP start with 10*
*Delegating 5 000 - 9 999SP start with 11*
*Delegations above 10 000SP start with 12*

New members
*Delegating 1 - 4 999SP start with 10*
*Delegating 5 000 - 9 999SP start with 10*
*Delegations above 10 000SP start with 10*

Upvotes from Q cannot exceed 100%, so take a look at Q's SP and divide by 10 to find out the max delegation

What does this MULTIPLIER mean? 

> Delegation of 100 = 1000SP upvote.
> Delegate 10 SP = 100 SP upvote

*Similar to an upvote from an account with 1000SP*

### If you can't or don't want to delegate

Minnow support (old T1 and T2) is now a single SP boost system. 

Upvoting Qurator posts up to $0.35 per week = a return of 1:1.1 
below 0.35 but 100% = 1:1.1

> Upvote 0.35 per week and get 0.385 in return
> Have a small account and upvoting at 100% will result in Qurator upvoting you with a minimum of $0.03




These are some of the changes we are thinking of to replace the current TIER system. 

The main reason is to promote growth for both members and the project while also giving members the choice of upvoting/delegating. No more difficulty in working out your tier and your Multiplier, as well as your accumelated UPVOTE SP, can be viewed in Discord. 

Long-term supporters will benefit more since they support more. 

We would love to hear your thoughts, concerns, and ideas regarding this system.
