EVERYONE, I just upped my voting to 7% on TSU as suggested here. I had to bring it down to 5% for a bit, but things are flowing better now so I put it back up. I still like manually voting sometimes, so I feel between 7-12% will work for most people who still want to manually vote somewhat every day.

However if you are someone who doesn't really vote much, then above 30% would work better for you and everyone in the tribe. This will generate more rewards for you and everyone else, and not waste your voting percentage like when you are not voting. In this case "use it or loose it" actually does apply.
