Hello/introduction/feature requests/thanks
-
thanks for the kind words!
I think a few of these features already exist
its 3:20 am here so I'm going to sleep instead of replying properly 
one thing I do have to say though, is that we need more theme designers (we only have our awesome @trevor that is doing some cool things so far), so I think there's a lot of room for you to be able to contribute I hope

6 - there's a way to close registration up, so I think building an invite box in the admin panel might not be too difficult
7 - right now there's a moderator threshold you can set in the control panel (ex. if you hit 1000 reputation, you become able to delete posts). At some point we'll implement a thumbs down as well
8 - right now we have the youtube, dailymotion, and vimeo plugins. For images, you'd need to use markdown syntax ex.
although a plugin for this could be possible as wellI think everything else will find themselves implemented via plugins at some point in time. All of them are valid and pretty important things to have!

Thats very exciting. For #7, new members tend to ask questions and get hazed by the veterans. Flame wars start this way and eventually someone gets banned and/or the new member quits the forum. Giving a new member moderator powers of their own thread should work. I think psychologically, simply knowing that you can delete offensive comments alleviates much of the stress of being a new member. You don't feel quite as powerless.

Happy New Year! Lets start out this new year with a bang!

Nice! That's what I had in mind.
