Specifically, please let me disable the M shortcut for Map Mode. It's right next to the < key that I use to rotate the game. I absolutely hate waiting the three minutes it takes for Map Mode to display only to cancel it. If I really want to go to Map Mode, I'll have my Sims use a phone to Travel. Thank you!

In the interim, is your keyboard one that you can just pop the M key off during game play and then pop it back on afterwards? (ie a regular USB desktop keyboard)?
I used to do that with my Windows keys while playing an older online game. Every time I accidentally hit the Windows Key (which was right next to alt which I used for hotkeys) it would crash the game... wasn't the best experience for the rest of my party, esp. when we were in the middle of a battle.
I'm not sure I would disable shortcuts entirely, though, if I had the option. I have found the mapview shortcut very useful on occasion; for example, when my sims have become "stuck" on a lot and won't respond to the usual command to go home. It would be a pain if I had to go into Game Options and change my settings before I could use the shortcut. Essentially, all I really want is some way of preventing the shortcuts from being used accidentally. This could be done quite easily if the relevant commands were changed to Ctrl + M, Ctrl + V, etc, so that you had to press two keys simultaneously.
Omg I thought it was just me, every time I do that I scream, it's so irritating!
I like to build stuff
That and they don't like it when players actually have some control over the game.
