How about a HUGE message (admin phase configurable?) where it STOPS, they read it and then have to hit enter to go on... or, something like that?

Redirection messages have the same speed all over all vB functions. Don't know if the delay can be changed somewhere in 1000's vB settings, but I can't change the delay.

What I can do is to add one more setting and admin selects if he wants redirection or halt pages. Halt page means a static page where the user must clicks a link to continue. Maybe it's sound better but believe me is frustated for most users especially if they want to add many videos.

I don't think that any vB action which needs approval (eg normal post) has any type of notification. Moderators are responsible to visit ModCP from time to time to check what is under upproval. In anycase is not a big deal to add such notification. Just keep in mind that the id that you'll setup to be an active id. Moste webmasters are registering a system account to control such "noreply" messages and never check them.

I'll check it, but I'm almost sure that it works. The video appears in "My Videos" page with remark: Awaiting Approval (red color). The phrase to change the text is: videoclub_unapproved

They're correct.

Users who have permission to Moderate don't need approval even if the setting "Needs Approval" is on. And this is logic. Why I (as Moderator) need to approve my own videos? Is it possible to reject it?
