Simple:
• You say us what voting power is your minimum (you set that to 60%)
• We require you to have more voting power than the @minnowbooster account
Should one of these two constraints be violated, you will be skipped when looking for a voter. That means your voting power will likely recover until you pass both criteria.
So if you want to sell your vote as much as possible, set your limit to 20% or so. That way we use your vote as much as we feel comfortable with.
If you for example only want to sell excess voting power over 90% and never dip too much so you can churn out big manual votes for the posters you love, then set your minimum to 90% and we will skip you once you get under that limit (be it by us using your vote or by you using your account normally).
We can't give you any information on when and how often we use your vote as that is out of our control. When someone sends us a request and your account is the best fit (and passes both VP criteria) we use it. If not than not.
If this is still weird or you have follow up questions, feel free to hit me up on discord: https://discord.gg/SaPPmB :)
Thanks for answering.
I do not really know how the algorithm works, but I think it is not convenient for me to configure my VP close to 20%, since it would be generating much less profits and therefore, I would be generating less profits for myself. Maybe I'm wrong and you can correct me.
My problem is also that I'm a curator of the Spanish-speaking community and my account already votes post from my community.
I think the most convenient solution is, if I see that the bot of minnowbooster, consumes very fast my VP, I will manually deauthorize it and when I retrieve VP, I will re-authorize it. I do not know if there is any problem with that? Can I authorize and deauthorize the bot manually, when I want?
Technically for your earnings it does not matter if your voting power is at 100% or at 50%. We pay you for what we take and that is directly correlated with the amount of voting power we use. So 1% voting power gives you the same amount of SBD at 95% or at 65%.
You can always deauthorize (or just flip the setting on minnowbooster.net) both work as on/off switches and are under your control.
If you want to retrieve voting power or keep voting power over a certain level, I can really suggest you use the voting limit. You currently set it at 61% so once your account is at or under 61% we stop using it.
If you manually curate, maybe setting your voting power limit to 80% can be a good idea. That way you can make big votes and still make use of excess voting power.
ok, thanks man. Have a good day!
No problem! If you have any issues with the service, don't hesitate to contact us and we see what we can do.
If you notice yourself manually disabling and enabling the bot all thee time, please tell me why and we see if we can automate that so it fits you.
Just as a heads up: Currently your voting power is under your set limit of 61% and we automatically stop voting with your account until it gets over that 61% again.
You can always change this limit to what currently works best for you and we will honor it.
Yes, with the passing of the days I will discover how to configure it. The biggest drawback is that I do not want to lose much VP, because as I mentioned before, I am a curator of the Spanish-speaking community (Cervantes project) and I cure manually, but we have a bot that also votes. If I consume too much VP, I leave much less money to the users of my community. That is why my case is not entirely up to you. I also thank you and I will continue to use it, because so far it has been very profitable.
Honestly, I also do not have in mind how much I use of voting power per day, using the Cervantes bot. I think that's the key. Maybe you could over time, add a function on the site, where if my VP reaches a limit of 60% stops voting and when the VP recovers to 70%, returns to vote.
On the other hand. If you need someone from the Spanish-speaking community for a job, my times are pretty busy, but maybe I can help you with something. I'm already on the discord channel, my user is tincho.
We have that feature already :) you already set it to 61%
I suggest you set it to 70% or 75% and that should allow you to give out big votes while using excess voting power.
Oh ok. Thanks man!
