I like the overall lack of in-jokes I've encountered here so far, and I want things to stay that way. This might be an unrealistic thing to hope for, but I like good, pure, discussion, as boring as that may be for some people.

There are many forums that already have a flat design like that. The appeal of reddit or reddit-like forums is that useful information bubbles its way up to the top. This allows users to find the highest quality posts with the minimum amount of effort.

It also let's users show their appreciation for a post by upvoting it, or label a post as spam/garbage by down voting it.
