"Right now, we have about 20,000 users in steemauto.com! some minnows, dolphins, and whales. if we request 0.05 or 0.1 SBD per month or $0.1 upvote per month, that will cover server costs for now."
A few things I would like to ask/add to this.
.1 SBD x $2.09 (Current price) = $0.209(20.9 cents), and $0.1(10 cents). Could you please clarify which one it is? Do you mean 1 penny per month per user? Because on the steemauto site it says you need about 300 USD a month, and with 20,000 users each paying 10 cents a month that = 2,000 USD a month, or .1 SBD = 4,000~ USD a month. Just trying to make sure the math is correct here? :)
I would be more than happy to pay for my account for a yearly subscription.
I would be more than happy to BE ABLE to also pay for the people who joined our curation trail, would you please add that feature in? It would be great to be able to pay off a year for each of the people on our curation trail(@informationwar) so they don't have any hassle or having to do it.
Please don't require users to autoupvote posts. That will give you some really bad blow back from people who don't pay attention, they will log on one day and notice their account has been upvoting your account and they would get angry. Similar to how some other big names here made it so you auto followed them even when you unfollowed them over and over again, people got really mad about that, and even madder about having auto upvotes happen.
I think as long as you guys lay your message out and show the value that you will get the support and funds you need, don't be afraid to ask! Just let us know what is going on with the costs per month and remind everyone of the value you provide :)
I just sent 5 SBD over to you from this account :) Thanks.
