I'm trying to find out more message boards where the main thing they do is discuss about Keyboards/input devices. And apparently, there is a similar thread at Geekhack about this.
Could someone point out where do the Japanese hang out?
Thus far, I have found these
English based
Geekhack
Deskthorithy
KeyboardLover Forums
That OCN section
Korean
KBDMania
OTD
Chinese
KBTalking
KBC
PCWaishe
Waishehome
Cantonese
HKEPC
Japanese
Sandy55 BBS
Vietnamese
vozforums
Indonesian
Kaskus
French
hardware.fr

Vozforums - Vietnamese.
And for the really exotic:

I remember when we first found that Chinese forum. Users were talking about the crazy capitalist foreigner that purchased the V80-5000. Then somehow a wall of anime girls in nazi uniforms.
At least that is how I remember it.

The Japanese are not very fond of forums. Instead they communicate anonymously on 2ch. Even there, the mechanical keyboard thread is not very active, and sees around 1-2 posts a day on average.
Here is the latest one:

In Japan, only old people use keyboards.
