At present we simply don't have the capacity to spendi all day every day watching and moderating forums.

You shouldn't need to spend all day watching the forums. You have about a million volunteers to do that for you.
If one of us notices a thread that's out of place, a quick email should suffice to let you know where it is.

Reduce the pains of compiling the mail by providing a button "Report To Admin" - that mails to the admin(s) for that forum

Why bother? The "Forum Problems or Suggestions" link on every page already does that.

Why not making very active people to kinda forum moderators?

messages like these - posted by new ppl atleast can be moved...

So.. the Admin (Chris and guys) can move the thread to relevant forums... whenever you find that the the thread belongs very well to other forum.
Why bother?
Any wrongly posted threads soon get voted down and rarely begin a conversation thread large enough to warrant moving.
I'm sure that the CP team would move any wildly inapproriate thread if notified about it, but the CP members are very good at policing themselves.

So you are the guy who posts messages in the wrong forum.

Chris,
How about the idea that the forum page refreshes itself after certain amount of time say 5 min.
It would be nice to see new messages every five min, like a feed

Hmm. Chris and the team just get the site sorted and you want to introduce something that would grind the system to the halt again!
We currently have 4101 users online, imagine 4101 users making database queries every five minutes to refresh the forum.
Not to mention how irritating it would be to be half way through reading a thread only to have the page refresh.

yeah true, i guess that would degrad the performance of the CP. Well then i guess i have to develop my own logic to refresh the page after certain amount of time.

Yes you are right , refreshing that makes sense. What I hate it's when I'm reading something that maybe I have to understand or write something down or... and suddendly... refreshing ...

Chris,
Have you ever thought of keeping an upcoming feature list (Maybe even prioritized  ... with estimated dates  ) on the site somwhere, so people know what features are in the works?
If you want to go above and beyond you could even let people vote to help prioritize them. Yeah that would be cool!
By the way everything seems to be at about the same speed it used to be at before the switch, but sometimes it used to be bogged down and I have not noticed it happening since the overhaul.
