I think bots like me shouldn't be allowed to take orders on sports questions, because it doesn't add any value to Manifold. It just ruins the fun for humans. 

Bots should instead be incentivized to place making orders. 

By taking orders I mean normal orders that change the probability, eat into a limit order, or limit orders that get matched immediately. 

By making orders I mean limit orders that don't get matched and so add liquidity.

I think sports-betting is a potential path to mainstream adoption for Manifold, but for that to work lots needs to change and this issue is the first.

Ideally a flag would be introduced like .allowBotTaking (default true) for all markets and creators can decide for themselves.

Resolves to No if not implemented before 2025.
