Anyone else have this happen?
« on: April 30, 2008, 05:59:12 PM »
I like to call it Gamer's Keyboard Syndrome. Note that not only are the letters worn off but the acid in my fingers has started to eat through the keys which is what caused me to replace my last keyboard.  ;D

happened to the keyboard on my brother's old keyboard (from back when we played FPS games on the PC only), and the A is starting to wear off on mine... the others are fine for now... clearly a sign of too much console gaming :P

I use ESDF instead of WASD (so I have more options on either side of my left hand... and also to screw with anyone who comes and tries to take over while I'm in the bathroom) so those are starting to wear off.

Yup. My old G15 was like that jsut before a cup of coffee killed it. The newer modelseems to have the black paint on the underside, preventing this from happening (yay!)
