3) The more money the Forum owners/moderators earn..the more time they got to devote to the forum. Lets have Google-Supported advertising throughout the site
4) May be have some blogs etc..(similarly to GM Baggeri's site) along with the forum

Okie thats all for now

All of these are good ideas but I don't want to see this place covered in annoying advertisements. So maybe not the 3rd point.
