Welcome to the 167th Daily Edition of the Daily Qurator. Below you will find some awesome members of @qurator that worked hard to post some good quality content for all you awesome Steemians to enjoy!

The @qurator project was created to help give Steemians some extra exposure and awesome upvotes currently worth around $0.11 - $1.46!

Note: some of you have been curated twice since the start of the daily qurator and some have been curated only once. As the Daily Qurator is gaining fame with every passing day, many new steemians are asking/will ask to join us. So, expect to see posts from new users for now. When the opportunity arises, posts from older users will be curated once again

Time To Get Busy With Upvotes!

Are you relatively new, involved in a few communities and the quality content is coming in left, right and center? This is where I’m currently at and for the past week, I’ve been trying my best to use my 10 votes a day very wisely. This has been very difficult when I have so many different people I want to give my vote too

Have you heard of Busy? Well if you haven't @calumam is offering some good advice in this post about how to use the Busy website to get the “slider bar”; which can help you disperse your voting and steem power better. No more 100% Upvotes. You'd have control over the percentage. Check it out!

Loving From Your Ego VS Loving From Your Soul

Sometimes what you think you want is only "ego deep" and won't actually drive you to become the person you want to become. This five minute video will help you quickly differentiate between when you're speaking from your ego and when you're speaking from your soul; and help you learn to love your ego from a soul perspective, so that your ego can become a bright shining light of who you really are

Some of the highlights from @joshbillings video include how are you expressing yourself and how you can bring out the not only the best in yourself, but in others too.

OFW Chronicles- What Do We Actually Look Forward To When Going Home To The Philippines?

What does F•T•F actually stands for? FTF as I coined it, are the top 3 things that we look forward when going back to the Philippines... FAMILY • TRAVEL • FOOD : Check out your vacation photos, truth be told you can categorize them with those 3

@virgo27 is sharing some great food from a recent vacation in this post. You know the old saying, “it's always nice to go on vacation, but even better to get back home”. Come along for a great journey to the Philippines! You won't believe all the delicious looking meals and treats that have been devoured!

My Origami Works: Some Handy Gift And Decoration Ideas

Using origami flowers instead of using a ribbon or using lace... These are roses! They're layered maybe about 3-4x

We've all had to wrap a gift sometime over our lifetime; and while we may not enjoy it, we do enjoy watching the gift recipient open our surprise. So why not make the wrapping more personal and beautiful. @jacinta.sevilla shows how to make some origami roses to add a flair to any gift or package. Take a look! Maybe next time you're wrapping a present, you can also make one of these roses!

Welcome To Steemit. Day One: Get Ready For The Learning Curve

I should be telling you steemit is easy, I should be telling you that you're going to get whales upvotes on your first day, it would keep you excited about the Steem based platforms but that would be doing you and the Steem based communities a great disservice... The truth is that you're about to face a pretty steep learning curve, your first days, even weeks will be filled with questions like what the hell is VP?, how do I get SP? , why does everyone keep talking about markdown? , wait why is my markdown broken? curation? power up? 50/50?, internal market?

This is the first in a series that @shai-hulud is posting about steemit; from finding your way to learning the steemit “lingo” and how to advance on the platform. Do you know the learning curve? Have you established yourself? Have a read of @shai-hulud's post and maybe add your own ideas on how you found success, or how you're looking for it.




NEWS


The new and improved Qurator bot is here!


Why the new bot?


The current bot had a 24 hour timer built in, thus you can only get upvotes 24 hours apart. Missing that window and you might not get your upvote. This resulted in posts not getting upvotes. The old EDIT and UPDATE trick always worked its magic but was a bit of a hassle.

Out with the old, in with the new!


The new bot will search for posts to upvote 24 hour after your previous upvote. If you posted 2 post in a 24 hour period it will go back and upvote your posts. (More details to follow)

The new bot will be active withing the next 24 hours. We are busy getting everything ready and transferring databases. During this time both @qurator and @qurator-tier-0 will be offline. Please understand and be patient while we handle the necessary upgrades.


The bot is completely new and even though we did test it, there might still be some errors that we have to work out during the next few days.

UPDATE: We are seeing some minor issues with the bot and will be testing it more on the @qurator-tier-0 account. Once it is stable on that account and all the bugs have been sorted out we will let it go live on the main @qurator account.

UPDATE 2: Worked out most of the kinks and will be running it for a while on @qurator-tier-0. If the test goes well then we will start using it on @qurator. =)

UPDATE 3: Looks like we worked out most of the bugs and will be doing a long run to see if the bot is stable. If it is then after this weekend we should be using the new bot on the main @qurator account.

UPDATE 4: Rough weekend for Steemit nodes. Steemit was down a bit and nodes were bombing out. Took a toll on the old bot. The new bot was also affected but not as drastically as the old one. Think that's a good thing. Still working out some kinks and polishing here and there.

New Tiers Update


The latest Tiers update is out and updated. You can see the post here.


Steemauto Curation Trail


RIP Streemian and hello Steemauto! The new curation trail is active and running! If you would like to support your fellow Qurites or just earn some extra curation feel free to join our curation trail that is active on Steemauto.

We suggest not following the trail with 100%, steemauto has 2 ways of following a trail, static or scaled. We suggest using SCALED instead of static since static votes can add up quickly and drain VP very fast. We suggest using scaled and then maybe around 25%.

Steemauto can show us who is currently on the trail and at what percentage. Looking forward to see more Qurites joining the trail in the near future! We also reward the team players and there might be a nice surprize for a lucky trailer. =P

Good for post

You guys and gals do a tremendous job. Every time you post I find new people to follow with great content. Thanks for the work.

That is what we aim for, exposure for all. Thank you for taking the time and reading fellow Qurite's posts. Sure they love the support =)

Thank you very much for the spot in the post!

Hopefully more little guys can get their vote split up so they can get share it more. It's helping me so much!

Great posts from the other members too.I've had a brilliant first week in the group, such a good mix of members. Keep doing what you're doing!

Good job, as always!

Hey @qurator! I've been hearing great things all around about your service, but I was accepted and registered a month or so ago but I've never received any upvotes or notifications of issues. Not sure if there was an error or I personally did something wrong.

Just looking into it to see if there is anything I can do. Thanks.

Oh no!

Guess that is one of the downsides of not having a fully automatic system. Seems like you have fallen through the admin cracks. We do apologize, know we make some mistakes sometimes.

Not to worry though, you did nothing wrong. Will be adding you to our database and will be sending you some nice Qurator upvote love to your most recent post. Just to make up for the previous upvotes that we missed. =)

I totally understand, no worries at all! And thank you very much for the love on my post, really appreciate it!

Ops. I'll earn that STEEM so I can bigger upvotes.

You have received an upvote from STAX. Thanks for being a member of the #steemsilvergold community and opting in (if you wish to be removed please follow the link). Please continue to support each other in this great community. To learn more about the #steemsilvergold community and STAX, check this out.

Tried to upvote and just missed the window! @qurator Can I upvote another to make up for the week?

Talking about the Tiers? See you are currently T1. Upgraded you to T2 =)

Yes, the tiers. Thank you so much! I upped the Friday Photo Contest post to compensate @qurator😀✌💯
