Thoughts on a basic keyboard for a beginner?

Hey guys! I want to build my first custom mechanical keyboard, I'm currently using a Razer Blackwidow Tournament Edition v2, but it started giving me problems like double typing and i think that Razer Orange switches are not that great feedback wise.

I'm still wondering about picking a 80 or 60 percent keyboard, as I'm a programmer and I use the arrows very often,.

I think I want some black blank keycaps, and some rgb in the back is not necessary, but i would like if it wouldn't skyrocket the price...

X-posting (cross posting) is indeed a form of spam but I can understand why OP wants to collect opinions from different communities.

Look at my short comparison of two tenkeyless keyboards I use for professional professional programming work.

The other post was a year old. When people cross-post to multiple communities, they usually do it in the same week.
Also, the format of the username follows the pattern that these spambots use.

OK, didn't check the date.
I just wonder what's the purpose of such a spambot? :? It doesn't provide any links and just adds an item to a discussion board.

In principle, I could agree with you. But it is just not the case.

The forum has been receiving a lot of spam threads lately, and all of them follow the exact same format. This is why I immediately knew that it was spam, and thus Googled the first sentence of the thread to find it repeated elsewhere.

The modus operandi is this:
* The user has a username of the form XxxxxYyyyy (camel case)
* A post from another forum is reycled
* After people have replied to the post for a while, the content is appended with spam links to dubious websites.

+ they sometimes have these shady links included in their profile's contact information

Too bad the <spam product> links couldn't be modified to point to anti<spam product> pages, and the account immediately locked, afterwards.
