If you want to contain the nutters, build a nuthouse. Every message board admin in the world learns you need dumping grounds and pressure relief valves to keep the population in line.

My team has "General" for company wide announcements and "random" for dumping gifs and whatnot.

There's also stuff like #sysadmin if something goes down or you spot a security bulletin and want to make sure the admin team sees it. Keep those rooms going as necessary. Low traffic, but the right people want an unread marker on them.
