In my absence it would be done by somebody else, who would also act as the "middle man". Now suppose I was the ONLY one doing beauty in EU, and I simply stopped and NOBODY was doing beauty. There would be thousands of peds being saved because nobody would be doing their avatar beauty.
Point is, perhaps I may act as a "middle man", but every person who plays speeds up the process of MindArk making profit.
According to Marco, decays feed into MindArk profit, and ammo/bombs/probes feed back into the loot pool (I am not saying this is fact, simply saying that is what Marco said). If that is true, then everybody who decays anything would be feeding into MindArk's profit, or at least speeding it up, whether they deposit or not.
