I'd love to see an active completely "safe" board of some sort evolve into being somewhere. It's not about work-cowardice or morality or anything, but rather about having some place to link which is completely safe - preferrably not nerdy either, people tend to be so sensitive to anything not pink and fluffy.

That way, people could link there either to show off some post or to show how cool the entire system is. If people would realized that they can setup something similar themselves, they'd trick themselves into thinking that they can make something really cool, and every now and then someone might just manage to do that.

Outside of the *chan realm, I've seen one gun website which had imageboard software...once again, it was a lot more crappy than what we have around here, but the basic working system was there.
