how to torment me with a keyboard in five simple steps:

* space bar only works when it's paying attention
* space bar is loose and feels like its gonna pop out when you press it
* shift key sticks for about 1 second every time i press it
* shift key sometimes will enable caps lock randomly
* left-ctrl doesnt work

@boots ...I have had a keyboard EXACTLY like this omfg.

what make and model is it? o_O;;

@Nine it's a razer blackwidow i
found

i dont even like Razer its just
the clickity clack is nice

@boots (the keyboard I had the problem with incidentally was ancient, like...one of those knock off model T or whatever keyboards, it was SUUUUPER old, had the PS/2 plug too. that old. D: Pre USB)

@boots Yeah I tried to repair it by prising off the spacebar and keys and seeing if I could clean it or something and ... uh

...well I noped outta that pretty quickly let's just say. .__.; never go poking around old office/school equipment. it's gross usually.
