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.
