This post doesn't really involve MCSG but I think I can still post it. My problem is that sometimes my computer goes into this thing that I call control button lock. Basically what that means is the control button is always on. Basically one time I had the control button on and I typed /v in the chat. For most people to copy and paste something its control v. Then instead of showing me the maps it shows me something that I copied earlier. This really sucks because I don't want to make a mistake and advertise in the chat. So if you guys could help me figure this out that would be awesome. Thanks.

This sounds like a key binding, or macro issue to me.

Try the following:

1. Try pressing both the left and right CTRL keys at the same time and
see if that releases CTRL.

2. Go to Start / Settings / Control Panel / Accessibility Options /
Keyboard Options.
Turn off CTRL lock if it's on.
If that solves it and to avoid future problems, press "Settings"
Turn off "Press modifier key twice to lock".
Turn on "Turn sticky keys off if 2 keys are pressed at once".
Or turn off "Use shortcut"

3. Restart your computer, or unplug, and plug your keyboard back in.

I've never come across this issue before, so these are my best guesses. Good luck!
