Today for most of the day, I couldn't access the site. Any reasoning?

Thanks, but how come admins mostly sound really formal? It's not a bad thing, it's actually a good thing, but I'm curious.

Is it possible to change the links on the forum so that they open in a new tab by default? Currently, the link opens in the same tab and will often redirect you away from the forum.
When it comes to the future, there are three kinds of people: those who let it happen, those who make it happen, and those who wonder what happened.

Right click the link and select "Open in New Tab." This works for me.

I'd rather it not be by default, since, personally, I would end up with a ton of tabs. If I ever want to open a new tab, I do what silverheart does or I click the middle button on mice that do that.

Perhaps there could be a way for users to toggle the default for links opening (or not opening) new tabs, not necessarily forcing it to be the default for all users?
