Recipe for a web community that doesn't suck: 1. Paid entry 2. Stern moderation

I've also seen "invite-only" work really well as an alternative to point 1
I like "paid entry" a whole lot because that means people have something to lose by being sternly moderated

What I'm saying is: it all depends on the type of community you're trying to build.
