Did you know that there is a voting tool that allows you to automatically upvote someone's post?
By using this tool, you will never forget to upvote your favorites user's posts.

The tool is Called Hive Vote

How to automatically upvote a users post
Let's say you want to vote for my content because you would like to show support and you think that my contents are good.
You go to Fanbase Tab
Input jacksonizer (no @ sign) in the box and click follow
If the user name is correct, Hive vote will add it to your Fanbase, meaning that every time I post, you will vote for me.
You can also set up your vote for the user that you are following, you can set up the voting by clicking the gear Icon or If you want to unfollow a user, click the X mark beside it
Settings
Weight: Default Weight is 100%. leave it empty to be default.
Time to wait before voting. Default Time is 0 minutes (decimal is accepted). I set mine to 7 minutes, some say that you should at least wait 15 minutes before voting
Weekly limit: How many posts you will vote per week
Daily limit: How many posts you will vote per day
That's it, you will vote for this user every time it posts.
You can add as many users as you like and set up the vote individually.
Don't worry about automatic voting draining your HP vote or RC. The Hive vote is pre-set to stop at 70% Voting Mana, meaning it will stop voting when it used 30% of your vote.
How to follow other people's vote
If you want to follow other people's vote you can also set it up here.
When the user you are following votes on a post, your account will also vote on that post. If you think a user knows how to vote and only votes for posts with good value, then you should follow this user.
To follow a user's vote you need to go to the curation trail.
You can choose from the popular curation trails below or if you know someone who has a curation trail or someone who regularly upvotes good posts manually, type in their user name.
If the user name is correct, the account's name and the number of its followers will show.
If you wish to follow this accounts trail, click follow.
To set up the vote, click settings.
Settings will appear
Settings for the trail: @jacksonizer
Enable (Uncheck to disable) - if you want to disable the user you are following for a while
Vote Comments too - If you also want to upvote comments that they upvote (I did not check this one)
Voting Weight (%): (Default = 50%) - What is the percentage you want to vote
I am not so sure about the voting weight but I will tell you how I understand it. Please correct me if I am wrong
Scale Voting Weight - this will be scaled depending on the vote of the trail you are following.
Example
Your vote is set to 50%
The Trail you are following voted 50%
you will vote 50% of 50% which is 25%;
If the trail voted 10% then you will vote 50% of 10% which is 5%
Fixed Voting Weight- meaning you will upvote with the exact percentage you entered in the box regardless of how much weight the trail voted.
Example
Your vote is set to 50%
The trail voted at 10%
You will still vote at 50% of your voting power
Time to wait before voting (MINUTES - DECIMAL ACCEPTED): (DEFAULT IS 0) - time to wait before you vote after the trail voted. Mine is 0
If you want to unfollow a curation trail, click the X mark beside it
That's how you vote automatically.
