Sometimes users want a market about whether they can be trusted. Them making a market on this would result in it being heavily skewed, since if the answer is no, they might resolve the market incorrectly.
A few examples of markets that could be subject to this bias:

https://manifold.markets/Yev/will-mattp-decide-any-of-my-markets-e61ca764273d
https://manifold.markets/IsaacKing/can-i-be-trusted-to-buy-and-sell-tr
https://manifold.markets/jack/will-mattp-decide-any-of-my-markets
An easy way around this is to simply ask someone else (who themselves has a strong reputation) to create and resolve the market instead.
This market resolves to YES if any other user asks me to make a market about them for something like this reason by the end of the year. Otherwise it resolves NO.
If I think that someone is asking as a way to force this market to resolve to YES, I reserve the right to not count that one. (e.g. if they bet a bunch on YES before asking.)
