I've noticed this turn down a bit lately. things are cooling down between sec and the crew a bit, most of the fighting seems to be internal between officers arguing on how to handle tasks
I think the solution is to stop arguing. regardless of your differences, do what the hos says and follow his orders unless they are outright stupid (in such case, don't argue with him, but adminhelp for advice on how to handle the situation)
on our side of the equation, I think heads of security should stop taking sides in these arguments. issue the orders you think are right without making it out to be "his opinion is more valid". remain neutral, say that this is your choice based on your personal assessment of the situation, and that your judgement is not you awarding anyone some sort of the victory.
to the crew: take security's lead on this. if they are arresting for minor crimes, try doing more minor (non grief) crimes to give them more opportunities to have fun doing that. if they're ignoring everything that isn't an antagonist, follow up on that by leaving them alone.
this is a social game. I'm starting to think that there's not one answer to any given situation, and that it's really up to the players to learn to read each other and try to respect the fact that it's a game, and games are meant to be fun for everyone
