No incentive to bet on long-term markets, thus short-term markets dominate. Not enough interesting short-term questions, so gamey circlejerky meta stuff dominates. Signal to noise ratio of Manifold falls, putting new users off.

Where did we drop the ball? The point of this isn't to point fingers or assign blame, but rather to identify where our processes and strategy are not serving us well.
Mostly, this market is for the Manifold team; don't expect the probabilities, etc to mean much other than like a subjective vote on how much you agree with a particular statement, or how much you want to discuss it.
This question is managed and resolved by Manifold.
