I always seem to accidentley capatalise the 'O' in 'You', by accidentley capatalise the making it 'YOu'.

This can be very annoying as I have to go back and fix it!

I was wondering if anyone else accidently (SP?) capatalised letters when typing.

I usually do, but I'm used to going back and fixing it right away.

That happens to me all the time! I think my shift key sticks.

It happens on occasion but I'm quite used to just slapping the backspace key to fix any mistake I make. My biggest problem is that I sometimes skip words when typing because I think faster than I can type.

Yes, I definitely have that nasty habit. Of course, I hit backspace just as quickly. It's now pretty much become a reflex. xD

I'm always having to go back and fix the stuff I've typed because of the cursed shift key. The worst is when it is a whole sentence back. I have this phobia almost of moving my mouse while typing, so I always have to backspace through the entire sentence to fix the second letter of the first or third word. It makes things difficult.

Indeed it does happen often. Most keyboards stick on one or two keys, shift being the most common. Mind you, I do not often have this problem. My keyboard is replaced as soon as said sticking takes place. I play countless role playing games and sticky keys are a definate 'NO!'.

I am guilty for that, but i'm working on fixing it

Well, I do it often but I leave it like it is. Most people know what I mean and they know that it was a typo. I often do This where I accidently Type a word with a Capital when It shouldn't Be capitalised.

I almost always hold the shift key down an extra letter, accidentally, of course. As I stated in a different thread, I'm too heavy on the shift key, especially since I type so fast.

Which is where I was going with this. I type a whole hell of a lot faster than I can think, so I'm usually sitting here halfway through a sentence going 'Nurhur, what was I trying to say again?' It's pretty sad.

I only have that problem because my shift key sticks whenever I type, which brings up a few annoyances since I have to go back and correct it. It's a very consistant problem for me.
