They really need a leader and some basic rules imo. I've lived in communities too and they seem to attract lazy mooching types. I'd love to live in a functional one but I've yet to see that happen.

Odd how co-ops only work when people co-operate.

Leader was an archetype that was projected on certain volunteers. While there were rules, there were not clear outcomes after people broke them.

There were a few mooches when I was involved, but after I left they got high speed Internet, and now they have taken over.

I think the best chance is after civilization collapses. If you depend on each other to survive, that might stop the peak drama and petty interactions.
