Until now I have basically locked down this account other then to make the single upvote needed to reset the feed to steemd and steemworld so they weren't showing 100%. Haven't been commenting or voting to allow this account to recharge as fast as possible.
The MinnowBuilder Program IMO is more important now then ever. Everyone needs a way to grow their accounts and as smaller accounts are going to be much more selective about the votes they cast and even semi larger accounts are more likely to cast less total vote (but for larger amounts) to keep their RC level higher. Means unless you are in the inner circle with people it's going to be harder to get added votes. So the Redfish we are helping are going to have a harder time to start/continue their growth. MinnowBuilder will hopefully fill part of this gap that has been created.
To be fair IMO it's WAY to early to pass judgement on this HF. It took me a couple days to wrap my head around this fact, but seriously so many things changed that it's hard to know exactly where we stand in terms of the effects of this update. Lets debate how good or bad @ned and company did here in 30 days once we see the true effects and after things balance out a little.
For votes to stay live we need 2 things to happen, the account must be over 80% VP and we need SteemAuto up and running. As the VP just broke 80% there is a chance that it will fall below 80% with some larger votes that are cast. Once back over 80% votes will start again. Sorry, but this one is luck of the draw. If you want to verify you will get paid at posting check the VP of the account first.
We will not have any issues with the new RC/Mana percentages as we don't comment when we vote. As the votes are limited to 1 per day per person and we rarely post or comment we will not have any issues moving forward. Our RC level is at 100% currently and have cast 3 votes already today.
