Saved? I'm not really sure it needs "saving." I've been around since about a year after its inception, and like Paul said, people have always complained that quality was going down. But honestly, it has stayed about the same. Sure, once in a while some trollish post gets to the front page, but the mods tackle it or people flag it or upvote other things within a day. The signal to noise ratio is just really high, and unless that's going down drastically, I don't see a problem. Come back the day HN becomes Digg, because I don't think it'll happen...for a long long time at any rate. Growth is good. It's only bad if you have people who fundamentally misunderstand this site, and by far I think most of the people who join News.YC understand what it is about. I mean, if they didn't understand, why would they even join or hear about it to begin with?
