    It has happened to many of us. You're underground, enjoying mining with the awesome new pickax you got, when you press Q. Your pickax flies out of your hand, into the lava, and your stomach gets a sick feeling as you hear that dreaded *sizzle* sound. Or maybe you're at the spawn, running to a snipe after pumpkin farming with your eff V ax . You mean to press "W" twice but hit "Q". Your ax rockets forward right into the builder ahead of you and is now his. This thread is dedicated to those horrible moments where we learned the hard way to remap the "Drop" key to something other than "Q"

    What are the most valuable enchanted items you have "thrown" away accidentally?

    I threw an eff V, unbreak III, fortune iii pick into a stream while mining. I rushed forward to grab it but watched helplessly as it floated into lava. Backspace is my new "drop" key.

    And that's why you change the drop key to B.

    You get used to it quickly, and it saves lots of accidents.

    Not to mention it's required for flying.

    you can re-map the keys easily! Just go into the spawn, select your favorite enchanted item, and repeatedly press Q!

    This thread makes me feel better about my losses. Never lost anything to throwing, just to lava while mining.

    That's why I put enchanted item in my inventory and not the hot-bar just in-case. The worth i have lost was an eff4 pick but that was due to portal lag not pressing "Q".
