I’m still working on getting the FAQ just right so some minor adjustments today, let me know if you have any suggestions.

FAQ Page

I'm going to sticky this on our discord and link to it in some of our daily posts, to help with some of the questions I get.

What is this service

Stax (@silvergoldbotty) is a delegation based community upvote bot and quality community content curator. We have a growing group of amazing content creators, and open to anyone producing valuable content on any topic or tag and using any block chain interface. We also manually curate 3 posts from our community every day and showcase them in our daily post and resteem our favorite from those 3.

Who can join? Do I need to use a specific tag? Can I post with other blockchain interfaces

Our service is open to anyone here on steemit, blogging about anything and using any app to blog on. I do make a quite review of your account to make sure your not some sort of spam bot, but otherwise your in

How do I join

To join you just need to send a delegation of SP to @silvergoldbotty. We only accept delegation and have a minimum of 50SP and max of 5000SP. You are welcome to delegate any amount in between that amount.

Once you are a member we do require that you also cast a vote on our daily post made by @silvergoldbotty. Vote values are based on the the following calculation;100 000/(your active SP)= Your minimum return vote. (This means if you active SP is less than 1000, you will be casting a 100% daily vote) But please feel free to cast a larger vote if you wish to help support this service. All liquid funds from post payouts all go to pay for an SP lease to better reward our members, and SP rewards are used to build the account naturally for additional rewards.

How much will my vote be worth.

Currently your return vote is calculated by the following algorithm (SP delegated/90=Vote=%), but it will fluctuate and change on a regular basis.

Here is is in chart form. (the tiers are just examples and you can delegate any amount between 50-5000SP that you choose)

(These values were generated on July 1st, with an SP of 130k, Steem price of 1.28, and VP of 87%, they are just a guide an may not be accurate at the time you read this post)

Tier-Title	Delegation	Vote	Vote Value(current)
Platinum	5000SP	55.6%	$5.27
Gold	2500SP	27.8%	$2.64
Silver	1250SP	13.9%	$1.35
Nickel	650SP	7.2%	$0.72
Copper	400SP	4.4%	$0.42
Lead	200SP	2.2%	$0.24
Minnow	50SP	0.6%	$0.07

What do you mean my vote will change/ Why was my vote % reduced

The % need to be balanced carefully depending on the amount of members, as we take on more members the % of your vote will be reduced. I usually try to do the re balancing every 1-4 weeks as required so there may be large changes at times. The thing to keep in mind is as we take on more members they are all adding to the active SP held in this account so vote values in $ should also rise accordingly.

The $ value of the vote you receive is mostly based on STEEM price and our VP, so it may change significantly and daily. The bot's VP usually stays in a range between 85-95%, and votes cast while the VP is lower will have less $ value.

How to I get my Vote

All you need to do is post your blog, no other steps. You will get one vote per day, so Stax has a built in timer to help with this, once 22hrs have elapsed you are eligible for your next vote. So this works well for people who post at the same time daily, but maybe not for erratic posters. This timer goes from your received upvote to your next post. It takes a bit of getting used to, but you can always trigger a vote by "editing" your post and the bot will find it if it's been over 22hrs.

Once you send or change you delegation there is usually a small delay since you have to be added manually, usually this is done within 24hrs but occasionally may be up to 48hrs.

How do delegations work

If you are unfamiliar with delegating SP, it is essentially loaning your SP to another account for them to vote with, you always remain in the control of the SP and can revoke it at any time. There is a 7 day cool down period for the return of your delegation when you decide to revoke it. This is all run through the steem blockchain and steemconnect. I suggest using this tool to add or change your delegation, http://steembottracker.com/delegation.html.

Stax's Picks

Ambition helps people to see life's opportunities, intressteing enuff , ambition is considered a negative quality of people.
What makes ambition special, and the difference from other qualities, is that it can evolve and spread quickly from person to person (not literally). Living in a society that represents a social battle for success, and where having money gives power, it is not uncommon for people to make every effort to be more successful and have a lot of power.

Checking the daily BTC: Steem are around 1.67 at this time , an oversold bounce that's all, until proven otherwise. 50 EMA here is around 2.0, which is also a psychologically important level, being a whole number. We are not out of the woods until we go above 2.0
EMA is curling up, so that's all good. But 50 EMA is at 7100. Until prices cross that and we hold the first pull back, thereby making a higher low, an uptrend is in place.
