I think the point is that the field should be left alone. Let players of both genders rank wherever they do. Seems odd to separate the genders for a non-physical sport.

The answer that humanity has come up with, which is, of course, imperfect, but the best we seem to be able to do is democracy.

Many sites have lost their core audience, and move towards a lowest common denominator, and died. But I’ve never heard of that helping them take off, can anyone think of any examples? Lowering quality won’t help.

Oh, I think it’s hurt Reddit more than it seems on the surface. Of course they will say “it’s not working” but reading between the lines of this Engadget article [1], the number of ad impressions would be down rather significantly. Note the difference between time spent on site (seeing ads) and “visits” – many of which were likely people checking on the site rather than participating in the site. I think this is taking a toll, and am hopeful this situation will serve as an example of poor leadership for the next generation (Digg being a previous example).
