"A horrible person". That's what it says. "A horrible person."

We weren't even testing for that.

...because, let's be honest, who doesn't leave it enabled all the time?

I don't have a num lock key!

(I do keep it on though, yes, when it's available )

When i was playing Everquest, before I found the glorious 5 button mouse, I used Num Lock to turn auto run on and off. But it would always piss my dad off (I was using the family PC to play) that Num Lock was left off sometimes. I got in the habit of pressing Num Lock to turn on auto run (turning off Num Lock), then pressing the up arrow to stop auto run, then pressing Num Lock again to turn on auto run (turning on Num Lock). After I got a five button mouse, I just made the back button my auto run.

I love num lock. I sometimes press it by accident.

I keep the Num Lock on but I rarely use it at all.

I prefer to use the numbers near the typewriter keys due to preference.

I tend to stick to these keys too. Partly because they're easier to reach (though I do use the numpad when I'm doing a lot of calculator-type work), partly because they're there on every keyboard while not every keyboard has a numpad.

Yeah, I generally do this as well, even if there is one. I never got into the habit of using the numpad, though I can see why it'd be faster if you got used to it.
