While a tightknit community, the mechanical keyboard enthusiasts are also one of the most welcoming out there. A mechanical keyboard category would help newcomers to the hobby and those who are seeking help, to easily find and participate in the ever growing hobby. At first glance it may seem that there are only keyboard builders; however this isn't true. The community consists of builders, keycap designers, artisan keycap makers, keyboard designers, and so much more. I believe that the mechanical keyboard community has grown quickly and large enough over the last year to warrant it's own category.
