Cyber Stasis is an economic simulator in the form of a free fictional game. The interface is a futuristic dashboard which coordinates global real-time demand and supply. The model is based on gift economy and tests the hypothesis of having a market system without any type of exchange be it barters or money. The market system provides a feedback loop between production and consumption and is oriented towards efficiency of distribution. Everything that we measure with money can be measured by a ratio between supply and demand. There is no private property and a concept of wealth. Everyone is connected anonymously to prevent forming of alliances and cartels. The goal of the system is to make sure that all needs are met to the best extent possible. There is a personal reputation index which measures your contributions to society but it does not give any privileges. The goal of the game is to become the most useful member of society.

The most useful member of society would convince everyone to scrap this junk "altruistic" system before everyone starves to death.

I am not. Not sure where I said I was threatened by this. Here is my previous comment:

I stand by this comment.

You reacted as though you were threatened. You didn't need to be explicit. It's called subtext.

Not sure how you can interpret me being threatened. You are entitled to believe whatever you want to believe and add whatever subtext you want to add, even when it's wrong. Have a nice day.
