Do you type using the correct manner of usingyour keyboard?

I'm typing this thread with the correct manners of typing and this took me longer to write than usual.

Not at all. I type with two fingers.

[DrenDran]

This is generally how I type, except if I'm rushed, or in a game.

No I don't. But atleast I don't type too slow using my manner of typing.

[Mysteroo]

I think I do. I never learned or practiced it but over time I think I just kind of picked it up as I typed learned to type faster

[JPSC]

I can usually type very fast, using only my left index finger, and my right index and middle finger.

EDIT: Now I'm trying to habituate with the correct manners of typing.

I type with my index finger on D, my middle finger on W, my ring finger on A, my pinkie on shift, and my thumb on space. My right hand is usually on my mouse but when I'm typing I put it with my thumb on the trackpad of my laptop, index on N, middle on J, ring on I, pinkie on O.

It's a bit weird but whatever

Pretty much this, with the knuckle of my thumb on space and the tip on V (usually my crouch button...long story).

If I'm typing, my left hand moves quite a bit while my right hand generally stays in a position where the pinkie is on enter and the thumb is on space. I actually notice that i use my right thumb for space more often when I'm actually typing.

Another thing is, I can't find a good set of controls for Blockland because I'm left-handed. I don't like using ASWD because it feels uncomfortable.

I have to use the arrow keys. :(

this only my left thumb is kind of hanging over and my right hand is just all over the place

[PowerDag]

You mean home row typing?

That's usually where your left hand rests on ASDF, where your right rests on JKL;.

My hands usually rest just before the keyboard, though, due to usually using a touchpad and moving my hands up to home row when I need to type (occasionally I just use one hand).

The F and J keys usually have little notches to indicate where the index finger goes.

Like this.

[padmedog]

No I don't use the correct manners.

But I type fast.

Correct manners of typing?

Correct manners of typing?

Read PowerDag's post. He said the correct name for it.

[Grodus]

The correct manners are stupid, they aren't in any way "correct". They're just a way of typing.

And no, I do not use them. I taught myself, and now I (almost always) type ONLY with my thumbs and index fingers.
