Sometimes when I play games that involve the arrow keys, my player (or whatever I move in a game) moves in a direction and I can't stop it so I usally die in games really quickly.
I have used four different PCs and I get the same response. This happens occasionally but it is very annoying when that does happen. Please can someone tell me if you are having the same problem.
P.S it doesn't just happen on AG

It might be a glitch that happens locally on your keyboard and is independent of Operating system, Computer, mouse, etc. It's happened ot me before on different PC's online offline with different programs. Not often. (Only on PCs though, I haven't used Linux or Macs long enough to really know.)

Stuck moving left? Press the left arrow again, then you should be free. Same with any other direction.

Hmm, this happened to me when I was playing Exit Path a while ago now.

I tried what Pazx said but it didn't work, then I noticed the arrows worked fine in any application on my computer. Only flash games online had the problem.

I've had this problem three four times now, on two different computers.

It might have to do AG migrating things to AG3 or server maintenance or something. IF it's only happening in games

What Pazx said is what I've been using before. I had this experiences before, but I just click the last button I used. This happened on me on offline games too.

I'm quite sure it's not. This has been a problem for me a looong time ago, before they even started discussing about AG 3.0.

And it also happens on other flash game sites.

You could also try cleaning your keyboard if that's what's getting the keys stuck.

that happens to be ALL the time, i cant play the game roblox, and i love that game, without them getting stuck, i thought it was my brother, maybe he messed up my computer(hes 7) but it works fine on other things i do that use arrow keys, its annoying. i do the whole press the button thing, but it still does it. its frustrating to play games, and the game commando is one of my favs.

Sometimes a feature on the page will reload (i.e. an ad) and this will move the current active part of the page to somewhere other than the flash game. I have had this happen a few times.

If your keys are sticking and you are using Internet Explorer 8, it's IE8. I used to have this same problem. If you don't have the website you are playing games on added to your trusted websites list the keys will stick all the time.
