   - **Misbehaving:** As already noted in the first point we ask for respecting each other. So what is the point when this is not done? We will refer to our [[en:project:social_contract|social contract]] in that case. But also to clear up: We do not tolerate misbehaving, harassing or anything in that direction. Every community-member is invited to participate. But to use Hyperbola only for own advantages, to make accusations towards team-members or other kind of actions is nothing we support. This also may lead to the point that there is no further return as team-member. We also do not encourage any kind of personal attacks either within the team or the community. When someone is misbehaving on those levels, we will take consequences as a reasonable discussion is our way to go and attacking others not.   - **Misbehaving:** As already noted in the first point we ask for respecting each other.

   - **Misusing Hyperbola:** Hyperbola offers many possibilities and surely also independence and technical emancipation as common major orientation. But every team-member should follow same ethical and moral principles, including also not to misuse Hyperbola and the community only for own advantages, for example to misuse donations. So far approved and getting into knowledge this will lead to the immediate discharge as part of the team, no option for returning. Hyperbola is also not a mirror for "activism" and is not meant like this. Free, libre software is done with altruistic motivations in our perspective, so this means engagement for each other without endless questioning and also being active engaged. Some phrases being used to describe Hyperbola may help, but in general bring nothing more when there is no activity behind them and persons stating only use those to mark something as bad or blame others. Especially this is something we also decline in our team.   - **Misusing Hyperbola:** Hyperbola offers many possibilities and surely also independence and technical emancipation as common major orientation.

-  - **No hearsay, lies and half-truths:** Every community-member and member of the team has the obligation to approve information and correct them when discovered not being true. Nobody is perfect, but we have no time for those and do not want to offer room for hearsay and conspiracy theories. Free, libre software is not political neutral, but also not a constant tool for support more paranoia. Spreading this in the context of Hyperbola is not acceptable in any way, neither for members of the team nor the community. We do not want to be part of anyone's special conspiracy theories, we also do not want to have Hyperbola being part as tool to attack democratic principles. So we oppose this active for sure and await this also from every member in our team and community: Opinions based on conspiracy theories are opinions but not based on clear facts and information. Granting them the same right for being seen on pair with science is not working and pseudo-scientific opinions have no room at Hyperbola.+  - **No hearsay, lies and half-truths:** Every community-member and member of the team has the obligation to approve information and correct them when discovered not being true.

If you want to know more in detail about the definition of "conspiracy theories", please [[https://wiki.hyperbola.info/doku.php?id=en:philosophy:wording_phrases#conspiracy_theories_are_not_helpful|read here]]. This point here is and was already used to blame Hyperbola instead of granting us a word as "conspiracy theories" are surely clear as word defined and not used by us to label something false.
   - **Working and talking together:** We have talks in [[https://wiki.hyperbola.info/doku.php?id=en:start&redirect=1#irc_channels|IRC]], where we give insights for transparency. Besides we await for sure that every team-member is getting in touch together and work independently on matters. We do not tolerate to claim being independent and misuse Hyperbola for own purpose driving the project into a complete different direction.   - **Working and talking together:** We have talks in [[https://wiki.hyperbola.info/doku.php?id=en:start&redirect=1#irc_channels|IRC]], where we give insights for transparency.

   - **Not your own dreamcastle:** Yes, Hyperbola is about acting with and for free, libre culture and software. But also no as Hyperbola is not about the fulfillment of any personal "dreamcastle"-buildout. If people want to start something with and / or on top of Hyperbola, they can always feel welcome. But this is inbound with doing, not only with some statements and empty promises. If you want to do, please do and approve your doing. Not just think that you can be part of a team and others carry out and realize your wishes.   - **Not your own dreamcastle:** Yes, Hyperbola is about acting with and for free, libre culture and software.
