Dude, you've been playing for this long, and she's saying this now?
No, screw her. It's almost your 1 year anniversary.
Keep playing.

Though I dont know how old you are, or the type of relationship you have with your mother, you can always try this :

Tell her the truth. " Its not fair that I dont get to do what I enjoy with MY free time becuase it bothers YOU. The two of us need to sit down and figure out a way to work this out in comprimise. Im not a small child and have my own likes and dislikes as well, just like you ". You can tell her this is came from a grown man with two children. Parents need to remember that while thier child is still a child to them, you can think for yourselves. Dont start this conversation in anger, rather, walk up to her and calmlly say " Mom, I would like to talk with you about something bothering me if we can ". That should perk her attention to the fact that your serous about this. If she has an open mind, she will hear you out and maybe the two of you can somehow comprimise. If not, then you just have to wait untill you can move out on your own, something I ended up doing at 16 becuase my mother never respected my own independence.

I hope this helps. Good luck.

Peace,
Shay

this is what i did. i just play in my room now. But even when i was playing FFR on the home computer, my key taps were loud but my mom and didnt mind.

I also asked them to come over sometimes and watch me play and they were really impressed.

Like someone said above, you need to sit down with her and compromise something. People were made to play FFR and your whore of a mother will not stop the legacy of fingering skillz

The people around me have gotten used to my keytaps, hehe.
I think it's a little better than before. When I used to play, my keytaps sounded like mush, and I pounded pretty hard too.
Hope you can play again soon. It's not permanent.. is it? o_o

Why is she home most of the time? Tell her to either get a job or get use to the tapping.

The problem is: she had already scolded me many times before because of key tappings, and now she said that she can't take it anymore. I think I'll just wait until she has forgotten about this.

Damn, that's a bit extreme, but I know a lot of parents like that. A lot of my friends' parents do things similar to that, and have cruel and unusual punishments. Just tell her it's stress relief or something. lol

Wow that sucks. Maybe do what one person did and put a towel under the keyboard, or do what the other person said and buy a less-noise-making one (I didn't even know those existed).

I get to play in my room (secretly) so it doesn't matter. =) Though they'd hate it if they knew I played, and I can't blame them because in a way FFR is a gigantic waste of time.

Who cares about bumping threads? I just recently started posting in the forums. My bad guys, I didn't check the time this thread was made. Should have just locked the thread if you didn't want it bumped. :P

Wow, they actually bumped my thread.
I'm still forbidden to play, though. I only play when there's nobody home. That's why I evolved so little in a year. Otherwise, I would probably be AAAing FGOs already.
Frustrating.
