If it gets to be the size of reddit that is exactly what will happen. Maybe institute a change to the comment section where it is much harder to downvote something out of view. Make the default sorting of the comments by time posted as well so as all opinions are able to be seen so the trolls get downvoted and controversial opinions get seen.

Get rid of "cake day", no "gold", and let the users donate to the website instead of bombarding the users with ads.

Have an age restriction. I know that's almost impossible, but one of reddit's biggest problems is, it got infested with grade school and high school kids.

Keep the liberal feelgood circle jerk out

I think one of the biggest issues was the control certain mods had over subreddits without the ability to limit a mod who would abuse the power. That's why I came up with The System.
I'd love to see this implemented into the entire site one day. If anyone has any feedback let me know.
