A small portion of a brain. Anyways, everybody else seems to process my argument just fine. I thought maybe you just needed to read this a few more times. But... Here is the revised version...
Dan-Balls are created at a rather significant rate. Members join at a negligible rate. This means that the capital per member is increasing QUICKLY. What does this mean for a normal economic system??? Inflation. Inflation isn't always bad, if everyone has the same piece of the pie, it doesn't matter if the pie grows or shrinks. The problem is that the capital is flowing towards just a few people, thus we have a rich minority and a poor majority. This is because the Dan-Ball forums have an unusual economic system. A very few people control a large majority of the business sector. Name color changes, Custom Boards, Custom Badges etc. are all controlled by a bourgeoisie elite, but there is no proletariat. Prices are relatively low for the bourgeoisie class, yet high for the lower class. If prices were higher the lower class members would be unable to purchase anything, if they were lower, the shop owner would gain little in relation to his fellow bourgeoisies. Thus, there is a massive accumulation of capital in the bourgeoisie class which is sucked from the lower class. If a lower class member develops an industry then they can only become at all comparable to the bourgeoisie class by selling to the bourgeoisie class, selling to the lower class does not draw an appreciable income. There is thus little trade among the lower class, because the lower class is focused on buying the illustrious products of the upper class, a pastime which requires much saving up. This is a stagnant system, where little is being made. This violates the fundamental purpose of this forum, which is to be active. This is why we need a proletariat class. The proletariat class would work for the bourgeoisie class. The bourgeoisie class would pay the proletariat for its work. Prices would fall, relative to the proletariat's income. This is unachievable under the current system because there is not a mass of lower class people becoming proletarians. Instead, a lower class individual quickly rises through the ranks until they are a bourgeoisie. There is no interaction with the other proletarians at that time, because their income is not sufficient to buy the goods of the rising star in most cases. If we introduce my suggestion, and create a massive proletarians, the problem will not once again worsen, because there is no incentive for the bourgeoisies to raise prices, since that would discourage the product's purchase among the still impoverished proletariat. Yet, the products would not leach the proletariat of it's strength, and commerce would begin among the proletariat. This would induce a mass consumer culture, which would attempt to supplement it's income by posting. This would achieve the goal of this forum, by inducing activity in two sectors, the shops, and the rest of the forum. What we need to do is identify the lower class, then in some way make the bourgeoisies use the lower class as a workforce, creating a proletariat. What kind of jobs could the lower class perform for the upper class?
In short, the whole problem is due to monopolies. If the people holding monopolies provide tasks for the people without, then the system would be more stable. As soon as the workforce system is abolished then the system will once again collapse. Again I ask you, what jobs can the lower class do?
