New build forum?

With all the new build posts in the general hardware forum I think there is a need for a new build forum in the hardware section. It would probably be more used than the general hardware forum, or at least as used.

Rather than a new forum, maybe a subforum could be added to general hardware, this would reduce both main page clutter, and general hardwar clutter.

The staff has been discussing this, and it's not going to happen. Thanks anyway for the suggestion.

I see one problem with this - a sizable majority of the posts in the Gen. Hardware forum IS already New Build suggestion solicitations - I guess that would make the Gen. hardware a bit bare without it.
