Dear Steemians,
after almost 2 days after my introduction post I already got a bunch of support from several parties interested in my idea of autoupvoting noteworthy NSFW accounts.
Here's some sort of transparency report, how stuff is going on. { maybe it's a bit early, but I think you deserve to know, what's going on }
My introduction post has got 19 upvotes { it may have increased since }, with a payout moving around $11 due to Steem price fluctuation. $10 of it comes from the generous upvote of @pinkterest who also sent such a huge reward for a comment of mine. Definitely a strong start!
With these upvotes and comments, my reputation skyrocketed up to 40 immediately. { sorry for the white stripe, apparently it's a Steemit site glitch } I also gained a bunch of followers, but as I said, that isn't my primary purpose. All I'm going to post here are reports like this, and maybe some resteems of users.
Speaking of users: I've got a bunch of recommendations as well as doing some ""research"" on the #nsfw feed. During that, I've made plenty of manual upvotes beyond the automated ones - I have no idea, how many exactly, but the majority of them went to those I desire to support.
In the end, it resulted my voting power going down to 70%. I predict it to stabilize near to this value, due to autovotes.
{ this picture shows only a portion of the upvotes }
It's also because my original list contained only three users to support, but since that, I expanded to 11. Maybe this is the most interesting picture for you: this is their complete list as it appears on Streemian Fanbase.
In order to balance out chances, for those who post frequently, I made a small vote weight adjustment. I did it so when someone posts the first time in weeks, she can get a 100% VP upvote, or at least it's more likely, so post frequency won't become an advantage.
Tell me if I'm wrong but I think it shouldn't be an advantage. I may even write a script for addressing this problem in the future, but so far I prefer not to.
That's all for now. I don't want to overcomplicate things so from now on, the only feature I can promise will happen is weekly reports like this. My question is: do you want to see an exact list of all the upvotes in a week?
Also, my primary power gaining model is by gaining curation rewards, but it might be too small to be feasible. This is another reason I'd prefer keeping up with weekly reports; this way you can support the account by upvoting. Every reward goes to Power Up!
Finally, as I said, I may advertise noteworthy users by resteeming their posts. Would you be interested in that?
That's all for now, thanks for reading, every feedback is welcome!
