Just been a member of the community gives you the privilege to participate, this is just an extra benefit of your membership.

News Updates:

Steem-Engine Hardfork

With the Steem-Engine Hardfork yesterday comes some changes that users have been clamoring for. First we are now earning PAL not just in whole numbers as it was before the Hardfork but now we are earning PAL in decimal places. Also delegation option has been introduced.

You can see these changes in the image of our Steem-Engine balances below.

Featured Member

As already mentioned when we did the introduction of this section that when we have new members we feature them first before continuing on our featured list for old members. We have two new members but will feature one today and another tomorrow and if we don’t have new member after them we continue with our list.

Our featured member is @preparedwombat. Please visit the blog at https://steemit.com/@preparedwombat all and show your support. Thank you as you do that.

If you don’t want to be featured please notify me by sending a memo to @upvotebuilders or through the comment section of this post. If you have already notified me don’t bother repeating it again.

Members who haven’t posted recently, that is your last post is older than the payout days (7 days) will not be featured.

You can send a summary of what your blog is all about in a memo to @upvotebuilders or admin will go through your blog and come up with a summary of what he things your blog is about.

Please members this is just another way of further helping ourselves to grow via promoting our own through upvotes, comments, resteem and anyway you feel you can impact positively on other members’ blog. It will be very nice if all members are showing solidarity with the member featured so that when it gets to your turn you receive similar support.

This will also help us know more about other members and learn/see what their blog is all about. This is a social platform and the more we engage with each other I think it should be the better for us all.

Thank you everyone as we continue to work together to grow because there is power in unity!

Note: This section may be reviewed as we move along to make it more effective as we continue to receive more feedback.

SP Lease Extension

A 400 SP Lease at Minnowbooster was to expire tomorrow, it was extended for a week at the cost of 1.98 Steem which we got from curation/author rewards. This is done so that our SP is not affected while we wait for the power down payout. .

Steem Basic Income (SBI) Shares

Members can also support us with Steem Basic Income (SBI) shares donation, SBI shares guarantees that the community post receives upvotes and the more SBI shares we have the higher the reward value we receive through upvotes. It is a very sustainable way of growing the community and Steem at large. You can read more about SBI in the link below:

Our current SBI share is now 81, see details of the donors below.

Membership Upgrade

Some members have been kind enough to upgrade their membership by delegating additional SP to their current delegated SP. This is really helping to grow the community SP which in turn grows the value of our upvotes.

Membership SP delegation will help reduced our reliance on leasing SP. Help us grow this community to encourage the content creators that are poorly rewarded through the upvote value they receive. So we need the big time delegators to join us and reap the benefits available for all members.

Posts And Mentions

We are extremely grateful to members that have been spreading the word about the community through their post and mentions. This is indeed helping to promote and advertise the community to a broader audience. Your efforts are much appreciated as this is cheaper than using bid-bots.

Membership Status

We currently have 87 members with a total delegated SP of 12,902 SP, we leased 2,250 SP and 3,500 SP from a free sponsor. Our members SP is getting bigger than the leased SP, this is very good and we hope it skyrockets soon. You can check out all the details on the table below. Please remember that the early bird gift starts counting from the day of launch of this community.

Membership

Membership @upvotebuilders is by DELEGATION ONLY, it is not a paid for community. If you want to sponsor the community you can freely delegate SP to us and specify that it is for sponsorship or you can send us Steem/SBD to lease more SP. Our sponsors don’t receive upvotes from the community account except they specifically want to be a member and also sponsor the community in the way they feel best for them.

To join just delegate SP to @upvotebuilders based on the membership level you want to belong to according to the chart below

Membership Delegation Levels

Level 1: 10 - 49 SP delegation - 4% voting weight
Level 2: 50 - 99 SP delegation - 8% voting weight
Level 3: 100 - 249 SP delegation - 16% voting weight
Level 4: 250 - 499 SP delegation - 24% voting weight
Level 5: 500 - 999 SP delegation - 36% voting weight
Level 6: 1,000 – 2,499 SP delegation - 48% voting weight
Level 7: 2,500 – 4,999 SP delegation - 60% voting weight
Level 8: 5,000 – 7,499 SP delegation - 72% voting weight
Level 9: 7,500 and above gets you 80% voting weight

All membership delegation levels will receive one upvote daily (every 24 hours) this is to curtail abuse of the system. You can always increase, decrease or undelegate to @upvotebuilders at any time and we will adjust your voting weight accordingly.
