My right ctrl key broke and there's no way I can ctrl+0 or 9 or 8 etc. so I remapped caps lock to ctrl key and I love it, that's all. =) (still can't get 9 or 0 but I can get 8 now)

You should try it.

That sounds like a pretty good idea. If I remap it to Capslock then I can reach 8 - 0 without stressing out my wrist.
...But the parasites say NO!

Yeah my ctrl key is extra tiny cuz of the function key on my laptop and I can still pull off ctrl+0.

I'm not asian tho.

My pinky is sooo trained to use the ctrl I would go insane. Glad you found a nice alternative though
seriously next disrespectful comment in this blog is ip ban. Be happy or get the hell out. // SC2 is like playing with neutral-colored Play-Doh while BW is like colorful Legos.

Wow I never thought of doing this. Caps lock/shift + number is so much more comfortable. No longer will my pinky be so tightly curled!

I think it might be a better location even if your control key is working. After all, that's actually the location of the control key on many Unix systems:
