## <center>Welcome to the Qurator Tiers update!</center>

<br>

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.*

# <center>Upvote Tiers</center>

<br>

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](https://steemit.com/guides/@gingerninja/a-minnows-guide-to-start-using-steemvoter-com-or-and-how-to-setup-rules-to-automate-some-of-your-posts)

# <center>The 1% supporters/upvoters... </center>

<br>

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 | T1 |  
|  Upvoting @qurator 7+ times a week | T2 |  

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.

# <center>Direct Steem Deposit Tiers. </center>

<br>


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.*

# <center>Changes to Tier 0 upvote weights.</center>

<br>

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. 

## <center>Tier 0 upvote weights have been decreased. </center>

<br>

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](https://steemit.com/guides/@gingerninja/a-minnows-guide-to-start-using-steemvoter-com-or-and-how-to-setup-rules-to-automate-some-of-your-posts).

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

---

# <center>What if I upvote and delegate?</center> 

<br>

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.

## <center>Current Tiers with their Upvote Weight and Upvote Worth</center>

<br>



#### 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! =)

<br>

| 	TIER 0 |                TIER 1      | TIER 2  | TIER 3  | TIER 4 | TIER 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*

<br>

## Qurator Selfvote

<br>

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

*Note: Tier 0 members could earn a lot more by showing @qurator support by upvoting the Daily Qurator. Have a look at Tier 2 weights compared to T0. That's almost triple the Upvote Worth.*
