Stock Market on Roblox Posted: 01-30-2012 09:03 AM Hello everyone who's reading this :D I was thinking about economics in real life and realised I miss some economic sturctures on Roblox. That's why I thought of a Stock Market. It should be based on being able to sell Shares of your place. Owning a Share of a Place would mean the equal percentage of the Tickets earned go to the Share owner. For example, if somebody owns 10% of the shares and the place gets visited 1,000 times, the Share owner should earn 100 Tickets and the Place owner (who built the place and has the other 90% of the Shares) should get 900 of the 1,000 Tickets. Of course, the owners of the Shares set their own price when they're selling (some of) their Shares. This also means that it's possible one will never get his Shares back after he has sold them. Shares should be able to get sold per 0.1%. The Place builder would set the maximum amount of Shares he'd like to sell and at what price. There should always be a ceiling amount of Shares a Place builder is able to sell; let's say he can't sell more than 80% of his Place. It wouldn't be fun if a place Builder got no Tickets anymore because he sold all his Shares. As I'm thinking, the price of the Shares would raise when the Place gets visited alot; they'd go down if nobody visits the place anymore. It should be a working mechasnism. It'd become an interesting part of earning money on Roblox. People getting richer (or poorer, of course) by buying and selling Shares, just like in real life. Plus (sorry if I sound like a teacher) it could be educational, to learn how it's like to be busy on a Stock Market. Even though there aren't many people who earn money this way themselves; banks do this mostly.
Last thing to add: it'd be nice if we had more types of currency. It'd increase the ability to speculate and thus earn money.
Tell me what you think, what could be better and if you like it. Thanks :D |
