Quote:I wish there was some way to selectively disable the normal funtion of keys while in WoW. I find it hard to laugh at the misfortunate poster after something I did yesterday. All my characters use the caps lock key for frequently used functions, which results in often typing "sorry caps".
For my hunter the caps lock is assigned to a macro that targets and marks the nearest enemy if I do not have a target, and sends my pet in after it. I have not been feeling well and I wanted to let my party know that I was AFK while in Wyrmrest. No bonus points for guessing what happend next. I saw caps lock was toggled on so I pressed caps lock to clear it. My pet went to chew on the closest horde, and the dragons took umbrage that I would desecrate their fane. And, yes, Feign Death was resisted.
Once I got my body back the horde came over to pat my worm.
Here is a Basin thread on the subject.

Most specifically is a program listed at the bottom called KeyTweak which you could use to remap that caps lock key to something a little more acceptable like a left shift functionality.
