Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.

I'm quite sure that won't be implemented for a similar reason to how tag battles will not be implemented. If you wish, you are more than welcome to code it yourself.
Please read comments posted before, having the music we already have is very expensive. Its not in the best interest of PS to add any more music
Make a Room in PS for smogon so we can contact there so it will be fast chatting and if we have a question we can find answer fast instead of wait in forum.
We have rooms for Overused, Underused, Monotype, Neverused, Rarelyused, Ubers, Little Cup, Doubles and Other Metas you can ask questions about these tiers in the corresponding room. We also have the competitive tutoring room for general competitive discussion. There's no need to make another room for simple questions and answers. Alternatively you can ask in the lobby and people are always willing to help.
I propose we make the top players of a certain metagame "Gym Leaders" for that meta, and then you could do something like /challengegym [metagame] to go up against the next gym leader in your "series."
However, I doubt that gym matches would be rated, otherwise we'd have some really lucky 1100-elo player listed as one of the best players on Showdown.

Unfortunately an official Pokemon Showdown league has been suggested and rejected many times, its normally because people quit and there would be such a large demand for the position of gym leader, e4 and champ that it'd be unappealing for anyone willing to do it
Also, there was a discussion in OI about it, but we felt that there wasn't enough to discuss at this time after a week or so of it being open.
We're not Serebii/any other forum. It won't need it's own forum. Anything in-game belongs in Orange Islands.
I will disable my adblock when chaos starts doing more late night randbats! Who's with me?
I think the layout of the box that pops up when you type /roomauth can be improved. Right now, it looks like this (the following is Table Top's):
It doesn't look so bad, but I chose Table Top because the room has relatively few ranked users. It's very difficult to find a user in the /roomauth of, say, the VGC room.
Right now, the listing of the names is in chronological order, as in by order of promotion. Although it is cool to be able to see some of the room's history, it would be much more user-friendly to have it organized by rank, and within each rank, alphabetically. For example, the names in the Table Top example above could be listed like so:
#jayrodd, #offler, #spydreigon, #zodiax
@ bottt, @ flameemblem, @ forevercubone, @ skitty, @ smelliot
%ampharaohs, %asthmeresivolisk, %aza, %badpandapancham, %crushindefeat, %magickarpz, %phil, %saacool, %tomatosarenice
+crylax, +heliosk, +penguincuddles, +simplyashley
(I had to put a space between the @ and the name to avoid tagging people on here, but you get the point.)
Or maybe something like this:
Room Owners (#): jayrodd, offler, spydreigon, zodiax
Room Moderators (@): bottt, flameemblem, forevercubone, skitty, smelliot
Room Drivers (%): ampharaohs, asthmeresivolisk, aza, badpandapancham, crushindefeat, magickarpz, phil, saacool, tomatosarenice
Room Voices (+): crylax, heliosk, penguincuddles, simplyashley
Or a variation/combination. Just something that's organized and much easier to read (also, blank lines between each rank would make it even easier to read).
This also helps when people are seeking global staff. If a user is ranked in the userlist but isn't in /roomauth, then that person is a global.

It's a great idea and something I think has been required for a while, what we could do is, as bad as this sounds, take a look at what the frost server did:
obviously only the stuff in the red boxes would be included and with a little touch up (bolds and rank symbols) it'd look great
panpawn (iirc) suggested a pull req which did this, but Zarel rejected it for now until the roomauth list became unmanageable.I think the layout of the box that pops up when you type /roomauth can be improved. Right now, it looks like this (the following is Table Top's):

There used to be a Community Mentoring room but it was deleted due to it not being used for its intended purpose and not getting enough attention. You can try PM/VM'ing an online Mentor about your questions (unless they're about competitive play, in which case we have rooms for almost every format). A full list of Mentors and what they specialize in can be found here. If you're unfamiliar with the Mentorship program there's an introduction to it here.
I wanted to suggest something about the dexsearch command:
/dexsearch Psychic type move
I think with that you don't only have to see what Pokemon learn a Pokemon move.
Another thing was in the data command:
You can do /data [Pokemon] and then see their weight and their tier and is they're in the Kalos Dex.
This can help people with weight and seeing how much Low Kick/Grass Knot will do and the tier the Pokemon is in, so they don't have to check the teambuilder every time. Kalos dex is for VGC 2014. The Dex updates every Gen.
In the Teambuilder, the hidden abilities could be bolded: Dragonite; Inner Focus, Multiscale .
This can just show what is the hidden ability for those who want to know.
If something in your set is incompatible, there should be a red triangle reading incompatible, just so you know before that big message appears when you try to battle.
This can make players aware that they have something wrong with the set.
Just something fun to think of that probably won't happen: You can use characters from other Video Games (Ex: Mario, Kirby, Link) as long as they are Nintendo with Sonic as an exception. There would be a special tier called the Video Game tier where you can only use these. You can also have something else to talk about in the Video Games chat room!
There isn't much else I really want to see. Thank you for reading!

The /data pokemon thing, The Immortal has a bot called TIbot in IRC that shows how much base power grass knot and low sweep have when used on the pokemon and shows what tier they are in. Maybe he would be able to implement this, it is a great idea.
This is pointless, as almost every single Pokemon can learn Hidden Power.
To be honest this is just pointless.

Use Crtl+F and then type the user's name. I do agree a more organized auth list would be helpful though.
Abilities are in Italics in the team builder and are under the category "hidden ability" when you are choosing the ability.

Having the teambuilder by generation, I should be able to make a gen 4 uu team without looking up what pokes are allowed on this site.
Hidden Powers wouldn't be broadcasted.
I think that not only urs problem its evryone i support u for that
