Key spams automatically

Sorry, I don't know what title to write but what I wanted to ask is:
"Does anyone else get their keys stuck when playing maple?"
What I mean is when you're using a skill. It just spams that skill and it continues for a few seconds before you can do other things?

That's what has been happening to me since the patch.
Sometimes, I'm stuck walking to the left and I can't do anything until it stops.
It's the same with looting and mass potting.
It's giving me a hard time when I train.

Note: My keyboard is not broken because it's fine when I use it for other things.

Keepwalking, Probably you accidently pressed Fn keys

[quote=NeoDagger]If you could show us a video of both keystrokes and your maplestory character movement that'd be lovely.,[/quote]

Sorry, I don't know how to make videos clips nor do I have a video/web cam etc. Maybe someone else could post one.

I've tried repeating the key that it's spamming, like walking right and I pressed right. It doesn't help to immediately stop this problem.
I've tried pressing the opposite as well but it just continues for 3-4 secs then it stops.

@Billionaire: Well I do have my heal on Ctrl and Genesis on shift, but the arrow keys is also a factor to this issue T_T.
Arrow keys are my life in maple.
But I'll still try to adjust my keys to see if it works.
@XueyeHua: I'll also try to change the graphics every so often to see.

[quote=LibbieAnne]And on the right shift key has a 'filter keys' setting where it will ignore repeated key strokes.

Sticky Keys is probably your problem. It's usually mine whenever I use a new computer.[/quote]

Nope I've turned off sticky key. I used to get a pop up for it and I ticked off all the boxes regarding the sticky keys.
Sometimes when I'm chatting, I'll spam a letter just as it does for the skills etc. (Nothing is stuck in my keyboard)

It has to do with how maple handles keyboard commands when it is getting more packets than it can handle, just change the graphic quality back and forth every so often if training for awhile.

Stupid question, but I want to make sure it's not a simple and easy to fix thing... You don't have windows sticky-keys (under accessibility settings, if I remember correctly) turned on, do you?

I know with my Priest, I'll be holding shift down to move (my teleport key). After 8 seconds or so, I'm stuck in perma-shift mode. It had to do with that stupid sticky key setting.

I did but it just continues. It happens on both my laptop and desktop computer.

I know what you're saying. A good relog/restart oughta do the trick.
