Question about clicking links here.

Any problems with the forum? Am I going to be doing work on the site that will require downtime? Discuss here.

Question about clicking links here.

Post by 616Entertainment »

I've always meant to ask this but could never be bothered to go through the effort of making a thread, I figured it'd get ignored. But now that it's happened to me for the 10,000th time, I figured what the hell, here we are.

Why is this the only website I've ever been to where clicking a link doesn't open a new tab, it replaces the BeltTalk tab I have open? Every single other site in existence, you click a link, it opens a new tab, and you X that tab when you're done.

What's the deal?

Open links in new tab is a browser based setting

Also holding control+ clicking opens in a new tab. Holding shift+ clicking opens a new window.

Across Safari and Chrome, this is the only website I visit that reacts like this. And it's been that way for years.
