tricks to keep evil party members?

Hey all I was just wondering if you had found any tricks to keeping evil party members happy? Like ways to keep reputation down,keep them from leaving the party etc. I grow bored of some of my characters but I don't want a constant struggle to keep my party together either.

It seems that reputation = 17-18 is the highest rep that allows to keep evil members - it's true regarding Vic and Edwin, though I'm not sure about Korgan - usually I have him around long enough only to do his quest. When rep goes to 19 Edwin and Vic leave for good. The perfect way to keep reputation at needed level is Slayer change - you won't have to kill innocent people or do anything alike

.
There is always a very hard way to keep evil friend in the party with high reputation - save/load, but it's so boring!

Slayer change is v.handy... stealing is also good (as long as you get caught) though you tend to make the shopkeepers hostile which may end in your party members killingthem and sending your rep plummeting... one last thing is NOT to use Keldorn, or Minsc if you have Edwin these good characters will just not get along with your evil ones.

slayer change is a pretty good hunk of rep off right? like 5?
I have been able to have some odd combos (edwin with keldorn & anomen) for periods of time before as long as my rep was bad. Will they still give me problems long term even if I keep my rep at a moderate number?

Reputation goes 2 points down due to Slayer change.
In the party with rep high enough there should't be any problem with evil-good NPC's. F.e., I know that some players experienced scandals with fighting from Keldorn-Vic, Edwin-Keldorn, Minsc-Edwin, but they are always quiet and calm in my party. I've brought Keldorn, Edwin and Minsc together through SoA-TOB without single quarrel
