I really like the Black Widow. I had heard that it was pretty poorly made and they often have faults, but mine is perfectly fine and I'm very happy with it so far.
I'm currently using the Black Widow and it's a great keyboard, or at least it has been so far. I've read a lot of bad things about it, especially when it comes to the build quality, but my one is working brilliantly. It's my first mechanical keyboard and it's definitely much better, for me, than any previous keyboard I've had. And I really like the MX blue switches, but that really is just down to personal preference, largely. The downside of the Black Widow, in my opinion, is the price. For what it offers, it might not be worth it for a lot of people. Especially the Ultimate edition.
The problem with the REU, and probably many other unions, is that, as Michael highlighted, there are large periods where there just isn't any news. We used to have regular forum games and stuff that would keep board activity up, but that has dwindled, which I'm OK about because spamming a union just to keep it active isn't really what I think a union should be. And there's only so much discussion you can have about games that have been out for years and years. When new Resident Evil games come out, and I don't mean the handheld side-games, the board does pick up, because we have new things to talk about and get excited about. Not to mention that union activity on the whole has dwindled hugely over the years. The most active unions now are mainly off-topic ones where people just have a chat, and that's great, but the ones that focus on a game, or on a series, can struggle.
