I care a lot about them, part of the reason why I am considering picking up a new keyboard soon is because one of them broke off of my G710+.

feet up always make me feel like I type in an awkward position, can do it but don't like it. I use a wrist rest, always have either built into the keyboard or aftermarket so really couldn't tell you if that's my issue. I always leave the feet flat and forget they exist.

Depends on your set up but having them up can help relive stress on your wrists...

 

Most everyone here is probably too young for it to impact though...

 

I prefer to have them on my keyboards but do not use them.

Because i'm in college I am using a laptop in my dorm. I actually brought a laptop cooler which i keep at my desk just so it could act as feet and angle the laptop. 95% of the time I don't even run the cooler, I just use it as improvised feet.
