Some of those gaming keyboards are rather ridiculous for their prices... I'm sticking with my keyboard that some from a used computer somewhere, it serves me well.

This sounds like a physical error more than software related, your keyboard is old by any chance? But try bind movement to a new key and see how that goes. |

...yeah i get that occasionally too...its usually when the key sticks down or something, other than that ive had it similarly happen when starting up a game and accidentally holding a key down or something, all you can do then is hope you can hit the quit button while the menu is scrolling at a million miles a second...its like russian roulette without the fatality |

i tried binding it to a different key and it did the same thing. then i bound move forward to my right mouse button and it worked fine, but now when i hit w to fire and release it does the same thing as if i were moving. might just buy a new key board, for now i im using my mom and dads keyboard. |

Well it just a safe bet just to go out into the real world (yes leave your PC room and venture outside) and buy yourself a good new one, logitech has some nice new gaming ones i think. |

Depends on where you live, if you live in the US can order them from NewEgg if I'm not mistaken. |

I have seen keyboards here sold for $100+ US dollars. I'm currently using a keyboard I got 6 years ago, it's amazing that it still works flawlessly. |

i also have the terrible misfortune of using a mechanical ball mouse.. it is terrible!! miss my old optical thing.. it was even mad interesting by adding LED's and a plastic creature to the inside, then closing it up again  (DC did all that)
also lost a couple keyboards over the years.. they just seem to do strange things after a while! |

Sounds like a cool mouse.
As I was reading your post, SB, my mouse was acting weird... Aaand there we go, now its better. Its simply amazing what a War Hammer can fix.

Obviously you've never seen a sturdy war hammer in action before.

I still use my stock keyboard and mouse even after I accidentally banged my head on it falling over in my chair. Hurt me more than the keyboard... I think I nearly broke the desk it was on though... I saw some cracks on it. |

^ lol so true But I don't have a big head, it was just I fell over pretty fast. |

Around 9.8 meters per second, assuming you didn't use any force to control the falling speed. But damn, "falling" on the keyboard at that speed can't be good... |

The desk is only a 1/2 inch thick. Also, the insides of the desk is made entirely of wood shards compacted together, not very strong. So... I doubt the 9.8 meters per second. |

I wouldn't doubt it, a 9.8 m/s wind is barely halfway to be considered "a windy weather". |
