I'm working on a user management system, and was curious how you all deal with removing customers ? do you completely delete them from the database or do you archive them (hide them) ?

In my technical opinion, the best approach is to "hide" the customers. That way you can keep track of historical customers and their behavior.
That said, there are legal reasons why you might have to legally delete them or obfuscate them so their identity unknown.
So, it depends, and it depends on the legal and regulatory framework, as well as the business requirements of what you are working on.

I have been building an application, in my spare time, for a while now and have been thinking about how to protect my product from piracy (it will be something that the customers will have on their server).
I have been checking out the various encryption products around and they seem to be do the trick.
But, I how much will it slow down my site?
It is currently not possible to let encrypted general programs run on customer machines (see On the (Im)possibility of Obfuscating Programs by Barak, Goldreich, Impagliazzo and Rudich).
What you probably mean is code obfuscation which is not encryption in any way. Most likely there is no performance hit when you use them in the same way as JavaScript runs in the same way when minified.

I'd like to know what to do if I find a high traffic site that is vulnerable to JS/SQL injection? I contacted the owner but it doesn't seem they care.
I can easily submit the <script> in their discussion forums and trigger the execution. Is there a fair best practices on how to direct the website owner to protect themselves?
In worst scenario, should I hack their site and force them this way to correct it?

All,
I'm curious what the best approach to this would be. In case the tags weren't noticed, I'm using PHP and Laravel 4.
My application requires that users register with an email address that is from specific domain names. Currently there is only one domain, however, I can see it being a requirement to white list others.
I would assume it would be best to put the domains into an array. Would I run a regex from $rules array against that array? I'm somewhat green to regex. I don't use it often enough to commit anything advanced to memory so feel free to talk to me like a 2 year old.
You can create a custom validator for this. See http://laravel.com/docs/validation#custom-validation-rules for reference.

What's a basic database schema for trading items? Here are the rules for the trade:
users propose a trade for other user's items.
both users can counter each other's proposals as many times.
Its very brief and general but I'm just looking for a basic schema to help me in the right direction in designing the database.
Basically you're talking about bidding (auctions) ... here is a decent schema I have loosely used in the past for such projects.
