Implying that pressing more keys at the same time means you're more skilled than other people (and sneaking in a little bit of personal attack as well, good job!) is as fallacious as the other statement - it's a meaningless and confusing analogy. If you're having ghosting issues with a specific keyboard that will dramatically impair your ability to play any game where you use those offending binds.
Keyboard "ghosting" is more like the olympic swimmer suddenly discovering that he has no legs in certain swimming pools. A keyboard that doesn't handle W+A+shift+space+4 for jumping while moving diagonally and hitting your shift-4 spell, or crouching while walking slow and leaning while scoped in your FPS will completely cripple your ability to play almost any high-intensity game and fortunately you have to look pretty hard (and pay really little) to find a keyboard that bad today.
Yeah, most keyboards now a days have at least some form of anti-ghosting. Even the cheapest $10 keyboards will usually have something. It sucks though when you are in game and realize that when you press shift+w+1 and nothing happens for some reason. The only keyboard I have ever had an issue with was a friends apple keyboard (the new flat one). I think that gaming was the last thing apple was thinking of though when they designed that keyboard so I can't really bash it too much.

That wasn't a personal attack. Saying that you happen to not be pushing as hard is not saying you couldn't. It's no more a "personal attack" than you saying "well, I never have an issue, so it's clearly a personal problem for those who claim to."
It's like saying there's a rattle in a car but only over 80mph. If your response is "Well, I never drive more than 75, I never hear a rattle", that's not saying you're a worse (or better) driver, or that there's no rattle. Just that you've never driven fast enough to notice it.

This keyboard is ancient.
Can't remember much details about it. It uses ps2, though. This was bought cheap probably somewhere about 1998-2000. My hands know it so well that I can write fast with it while closed eyes. Some of the keys are completely worn out (specifically WSDA).

Logitech G19 - USB
Pick-Up Group (PUG): Impromptu groups typically convened for the purpose of tackling the game's simpler content.
While billed as the cornerstone of a game built on extensive social interaction, they are in fact the graveyard of one's faith in humanity.
Most anti-ghosting features in modern USB keyboard focus on the WASD area. Holding Both Shift buttons then typing across the keyboard doesn't really prove anything. The situations when I do use more than 4 keys at once are extremely limited and honestly I haven't used key combinations like that in years because, at least from what I can tell, they were aggravating my carpal tunnel. I found it was easier just to have more binds by shifting WASD over to ESDF or even RDFG than to have convoulted Shift+Alt+CTRL binds.
To each their own. if I won't be super ultimate amazing pro gamer because I can't hold down 8 keys at once. Well, if I wanted to do that I'd be using a PS/2 Keyboard anyway :P
