I don't think so. As an Internet community grows, it loses focus and it changes, which makes it different (not necessarily "bad", but a different one that started). Also, the increase in number of members makes more difficult to follow who the members are, which is one of the key points of making you feel "part of the community" (plus the potential increase in trolls, even if signal to noise ratio is still good) There are also stuff like repeated subjects, etc... I've been in enough communities to see the same pattern repeated. I'm not really sure it can be fixed...
