I knew of the sort by creation date option at the bottom of forum display, but is there an easy hack to make that the default forum display for users who prefer this sort option (many of them do)? It doesn't have to be in the user CP, it could just be a check box next to the sort options that says "Make Default" or something like that. If not no worries. I'l try to do it myself (which could be rather dangerous...)

That question is a stock vB question - so you would be best served asking that at vBulletin.com. If it's not immediately capable of doing so, they might be able to help you out with the code - if it's a simple Template change.
