There are people who like trading against an automated market maker. There are other people who have been complaining about it for months and believe an ideal prediction market would have no automated market maker.
Not everyone here participates in submitting games. Not everyone here participates in editing the game summaries. Not everyone here participates in submitting news and videos. Determining the IPO price is simply adding a new feature some people will participate in. Some people just want to trade stocks that are already listed.
There are tons of things to do on the site (sometimes I think too many things which can get you lost). But I think it is good because it allows people to participate in the things they want to spend time doing.

I have read posts on here requesting features like stop-loss orders, when there are people posting they don't even understand limit orders.
For most the time on here, people thought stock prices move too slowly. This recent post by ErikAston points to his frustration of how slowly a stock is dropping even though so much shorting is going on. Yesterday I read there are people who quit because they thought prices dropped too fast from shorting!
