I feel that as Subsim has 25 different forums, 5 of which are for SH3 and SH4 already, adding one more will create too much of a clutter. Though I do see your point, I personally don't play SH3 or SH4 online. I stick with the career or single missions thanks to GWX and team.
Ultimately, it's up to Neal, and as long as the forum is being used for good purposes and is pretty lively, I'm sure he'll help you guys out.
