I agree with you on almost everything.
I like your idea about the designated coder part.
There is still the rank "Advisor", that might be a suitable rank for the people coding hacks for this board.
As I said before, a "private" hack team would be cool, not only for the fact that we would code hacks for Zelaron, but it's also educational for the other members.
If I was you, I wouldn't buy on of those books, they mostly only learn you the PHP basics, and most of those aren't even used in vBulletin.

As I also said before, bringing ads to the forum might not be a bad idea.
With a very simple conditional, you can make the ads guest only.
Some less-lazy guests will register, which is good.
The others (lazy ones) will just not register, and get Zelaron money.
