How many communities out there uses a "Feedback & Suggestions" -forum to handle feedback regarding your site and suggestions? This suggestion would make your feedback forum much easier to manage and aswell as easier to see which support-topics that has been solved(and not just locked - big difference).

You do realize this topic is from 2009, right? That's why some of the features they asked for here have been implemented.

I agree. Aswell as an option to write an "about" snippet on each staff member. I'm sure a lot of people want that since it's kinda general. This information could perhaps be fetched from the staffmember's "about" tab from the profile. Or a completely seperate thing.

This idea can be achieved with soft-delete. Only allow your moderators to soft-delete. That way you can easially see which threads has deleted items in them and at the same time be able to review and revert, if neccessary, the post(s)/thread(s).

Doesn't he want it PER POST aswell? So he can mark a post "Unreadable by usergroups: x, y, z" after it's been posted.
