    Should be a preference setting in your web browsing software.

    it just changed when the website moved

    links on here open up in the forum window so to go back to the forum, you have to go back back back

    Since the change I no longer get any emails showing replies to threads I'm following or PMs as well as now like you said no more new windows for links.

    I miss the automatic new window.

    I still forget it doesn't work and close my SB window.

    Glenn mentioned in the other thread that the store site is being completely re-done this week.
    After the store site is finished, they will address the issues with the message board. :)

    3-button mouse, click the wheel/3rd button. In firefox it opens a new tab in your current browser window. Dont even have to touch the keyboard as Joe suggested with cntrl click heh :)

    I'm not sure if this has already been addressed elsewhere but the site never remembers me and I always have to log in...

    is this just a temporary thing until the re-vamp is completed or what...?
