What makes different Internet Forums/Social Media communitys different?

Why is 4chan different than ycombinator and what makes Reddit the way it is? How does one influence how a community develops in a forum. Is it feasible to "engineer" future forums to encourage leading to a specific outcome? (Nitpicking where you advertise to get a specific crowd of users, site layout, anonymity or not, etc).
