    How come every single link I click opens a new tab?

    Click the forums link from the homepage and the forums index opens in a new tab. Click a forum name in the index window OR from the dropdown list and the forum opens in a new tab. Click a thread, the thread opens in another tab. Click Post new thread, new thread window opens in a new tab. Every active link I've tried on TGR forums causes a new tab to open. Pretty soon I've got like 20 tabs open.

    WTF?

    Not happening on any other website.

    Firefox.

          Problem with the forum, not on your end. Something to do with the ads plugin or something. I'm sure someone is working on it.

                  Yeah I don't really mind it, I usually ctrl-click most links anyway.

                          Started last night, annoying as hell (every new page in a thread=new tab).

                          Please fix.

I mean, your fail is so dense it has become a "black hole of fail" that has a gravitational pull strong enough to attract the fail of others, hence the "dating sucks" thread scenario.

                              Seems to be happening to everyone but me. Maybe because I don't turn my computers off or close my browsers...

                                      that is a bit interesting. I'm 2 for 2, both machines open up new windows.

                                      It's the same old shit that I ain't gonna take off anyone.
                                      and I never had a shortage of people tryin' to warn me about the dangers I pose to myself.

                                          this was driving me nuts yesterday. i was convinced i messed with my settings somehow. no playing with my Firefox settings seemed to alleviate the madness.

                                              Same thing in Safari, I also thought it was my settings and wasted a bunch of valuable internetz time fucking around with it trying to fix it.

                                                  It is interesting. Since I don't use Safari I wasn't aware this happened. So I opened Safari and sure enough it was. But with Firefox on two different machines that the browser hasn't closed for days, or at least since this phenomenon started, no problem-o's while others on firefox are having the problem.
