As in a Democracy where you get the government you vote in, you get the site the members build. Technically I don't think there are any tweaks that need to be done or a push button that can be pressed that will instantly resolve the issue. IMO we have a very good committed/knowledgable (I exclude myself from that last category..) core group but it is an extremely small group. I am not sure how you can expand on this group other than to say that one thing I would say is that in the past and still on occasion this site engages in flame wars much more than other sites I visit. I know some of it is made in jest but some of is not and when members post a thread and are sometimes attacked or in a more common scenario other members use the thread to attack each other it tends to drive people away. Just my two cents.........
