First, I'll say thank you for bringing this to the attention of the community and giving us an opportunity to give input before making the changes. This gives us an opportunity to prepare and we have a chance to advise what would work best for us while still getting you the support you need to keep the service running.

I would be fine with giving a vote to help support you. I'd prefer it was an amount that I could do by setting an autovote and just letting it go. I would also be ok with having a small fee be charged for using it. If it was .1 SBD per month, I would probably pay for a year so I wouldn't have to worry about it. A reminder would be nice so I wouldn't lapse.

Thanks for providing your service.

I've already voted for @mahdiyari as I think that SteemAuto is a valuable resource for the community.
