For me, trusted manufacturers are those who sell products and honour their order queues in a timely manner.

But the subboard is not only for you. The staff, mods and admins tend to stay away from judging who is trustworth and who is not, because
#1 its difficult (think: detect a long con before its too late)
#2 it would allow for manipulation

The child boards would have dedicated topics for each product, the amount of posts would merely depend on the number of customers, a thread with only 2-3 posts per week would also be informative in itself as it would show the lack of interest in a product.

Each subboard needs administrative care. If noone is posting there its more work than benefit. The existing subboards can be scanned for posts regarding a certain manufacturer to judge the interest in their products (or lack of the same).

To assist buyers who may be considering mining hardware purchases, I would like to propose admins of the forum create child boards within the Hardware Section, relating to each trusted manufacturer.

Who decides which manufacturer is trusted?

This would help buyers more easily navigate when choosing which product to buy and would also allow manufacturers to host individual support threads for each product.

discuss.

Is there demand for a specific section for each manufacturer or are we talking about 2-3 posts a week? A dead section noone posts in does not help anyone.
