+# How to ruin a community in 3 easy steps
+
+Caleb James DeLisle
+
+This is less a presentation than a wild tale of trying to keep the Hyperboria network a cool and
+friendly place for all kinds of people, especially women and minorities who don't have so many cool
+places to go on the internet. I failed hard. I tried to keep an open atmosphere for free exploration
+of ideas but ended up with a community infested with nazis and misogynists. Along the way I learned
+that tolerance is not necessarily a good thing, that no amount of rules can beat actually knowing
+the people you hang with online and that what I call "Anonymous Internet People" have proven to be
+the source of almost all community problems.
+
+Still I have not given up. I and a number of others have taken up the task of trying to understand
+the forces which lead communities into the gutter and design infrastructure to subtly push people
+toward being excellent to each other.
