I have an alt that I'm using to eval the SYV service as a vote seller. I tend towards the view that upvote services are to get minnows established until they find their audience. So I think that weening authors off upvote services as their posts begin to earn regular rewards is a good thing. That's one of the reasons why I probably won't powerup an account to service the mid-range vote.
However, I suspect (not that I deign to read @reggaemuffin 's genius mind) that SYF might soon have mid range votes filled by multiple external sellers. I think this will solve another problem with a glut of lower value SYF suppliers: if they were combined they could help service the mid-range and thus get more reliable income. RM already moves at breakneck speed and I like how he incrementally improves MB by having many smaller rollouts of new features.
Disc: I have no inside knowledge of MB. Wild speculation only.
