It's a known issue. I hope it gets fixed too.
In the meantime, we usually just laugh when we see it happen.
It more than just movement keys. There appears to be two different bugs for chat right now.
What has recently been typed:
This would explain the 'movement chat' which is what mostly shows up because we're almost always moving...
I have also been leaving the Black Market after purchasing something for $700,000. Then when responding to someone's tell I get
[Tell]-->*****:700000Sure
What has been...untyped?:
This one is kind of hard to explain but has happened to me many times while creating MArcs. I'll just be typing along, minding my own buisness when out of no where the game will just stop showing what I have typed. I can keep typing and it looks like it should be showing up however its not. It is however registering somewhere though, because the next place I click to and start typing it will cram whatever I typed after it stopped showing up, into the chat box.
In retrospect the first bug could be the second one that just copies typed letters instead of hoarding them...
If you know what is going on, the second one is annoying, however managable. The first one is just plain asdswasdawdsadawdasdasirritating.

Lately I, and a number of other players, have noticed a tendency on the part of the game to put a bunch of garbage in the chat box, often related to movement keys. I thought it might just have been me, until I saw someone in broadcast post something like "wwwwwwwwwwwwwaaaaassssdwaaaaLooking for Group".
This also seems to affect the login screen, causing text to appear in the password box when we launch the game that has to be removed.
I hope a fix for this is on the way?
