In line with our userbase growth (I think we flew over 100.000 accounts), we need to scale up various quotas we had in place. Up until today, users were limited to 10 upvoats per 24 hours if their CCP was lower than X. I just bumped this limit to 100 upvoats per day. Let's see how it goes.
Also, we are working hard on optimizing our existing code before throwing your donation money at more servers. And yes, my vacation is no longer a vacation even though I am still away from home, we're way past that point now. I am putting all my time on handling this influx and I want you guys to know that I won't be able to relax until voat load time goes down to under 1.5 seconds.
Edit: you can try upvoating this announcement post to test if the limit increase works (hehe)

Please don't remove the limit. Upvotes should remain a limited resource to make sure people upvote things wisely to prevent what happens on reddit.

ReCat , c'mon. You are thinking about quality. This is the new voat. You need to change your viewpoint to one about power. Down voats aren't just for off topic or offensive content, reddit is here, they are now for anything you disagree with.
@atko , Thanks, there weren't enough Dave Chappelle memes on the front of /v/all yet.
