Recently there have been some changes in Aspiria that attempt to close the gap between mostly those with 500k - 800k and those with 20k - 50k. Granted that I qualify more into the 20k - 50k area, however I still must address a gripe. Over time it has become much harder to make money because mining has become much less profitable. More recently the price to start an auction has been raised to 1k. Although the intensions of all this are good and at first seem to favor a middle class, but in the end don't.
It makes it much harder for those of us with 20k - 50k to get started on the path of capitalism which in most of these cases leads to 500k - 800k. Suddenly there is a massive struggle for cash flow. This causes things like auto farms, villager enchantment farms and infinite sources of money through villager trades. Things like this aren't capitalism, they're abuse of the system. There is too much work for too little of a reward. If we all go to farms and abuses, then Aspiria loses the side of it that made it more than just a community.
That all being said, I believe in a balance, meaning that although I think that for example, the option to sell ores should be added back, I do not believe that a single diamond ore should be worth more than 1.25k.
