Like all questions the answer depends on who you ask.
My answer: First what lainchan.org is: lainchan.org is a domain name, the host that domain name points to hosts an imageboard called lainchan based on vichan, it hosts a Mumble server, it hosts an audio stream. The purpose of lainchan.org the domain name is so you don't have to type an IP address to access the services hosted on the previously mentioned host. The purpose of lainchan.org is to be a place / community where people can interact online.
What makes lainchan.org community different from all the other places / communities where people can interact online ? This is another good question, and one you haven't asked yet, but I will try to answer anyhow. Our main distinguishing factors are related to our appreciation of Lain and Serial Experiments Lain. The series is influenced by themes such as reality, identity, and communication, and it demonstrates them by using philosophy, computer history, cyberpunk literature, and conspiracy theory. (from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_Experiments_Lain)
Most of the boards on the image board reflect aspects or influences of the series. Because the series is influenced by cyberpunk literature, it very easy to label the lainchan.org community as just a cyberpunk image board, but I believe that label is incomplete at best and a restriction at worst. My answer isn't the only answer, and I happy to see others posting their answer to the same question. My question to you which you don't need to answer here. The lainchan community is to you what you want it to be. What do you want it to be ?
Lainchan has a language enhancer. It makes your posts more interesting and less like soykaf.
Lainons are Lainons, being the same would be boring. Different lainons have different backgrounds and skillsets. Don't give up on lainons before getting to know them.
Lainchan has random anonymous names generated, when no name is provided.
The server was wiped and all the boards were deleted. Boards are still being restored, the work to recover stuff from backups is ongoing.
See the merchandism thread in /q/ or if there is no such thread, then make a thread in /q/
Either you never posted it, or it felt off the board due to old age, or it was deleted by you or by Lainchan staff as a moderation action, typically for breaking the rules.
Either submit your constructive criticism in a /q/ thread, or go back to your favourite chan of choice.
See the sticker thread in /q/ or if there is no such thread, then make a thread in /q/
See the banner thread in /q/ or if there is no such thread, then make a thread in /q/
Either make a new post on /q/ or post in the existing stickied suggestions thread on /q/. You should suggest a particular board and stating why you want such a board and its intended purpose, a metric for post quality , a metric for post relevancy and why you think it would be a good board to have in general.
You should also be posting the sorts of threads you would post in such a new board on /r/, as a way to determine whether the topics covered by your board suggestion are demanded or at least appreciated by the larger community. If the posts in the type of board you suggest don't meet the posting requirements for /r/, then of course it is more appropriate to find another way of demonstrating demand for such a board.
Maximum file size in megabytes for attachments to a single post is 75MB (e.g. 3 * 25MB), as most boards support uploading 3 attachments by default. Maximum file size in pixels for images is currently set to 20000 by 20000.
