This really annoys me that when clicking on a link, it opens the link in the current window.

Why isnt i standard, that clicking a link it will open up in a new tab?
Or can it be an option to choose?

That's more of a browser/user customization. There's not going to be any common ground with one way over the other.

Hi. I am afraid that there is no option to turn this on or off on these boards.

Isn't there a mod somewhere which would allow this as an option? Or are there no mods available for this forum software?

I like the current setup, when using Firefox it's:
- Left click > open in current tab
- Mouse wheel click > opens in a new tab

The mouse wheel click also works for IE, I think this is exacerbated by only having access to the view new/unread posts from the homepage.
