That way it would open links in a new tab, and I promise this will be something good for the forum and it will increase the traffic, and I don't mean more visitors, I mean the people will spend more time on the site because each time they get redirected to another site is like lose a customer, but that doesn't happen if links open in a new tab.
I am not very old here but I have read that the forum was once hacked and the data in the base leaked. I suspect that it is the reason some functions were disabled in the forum. Before now there is an option for external links to open in new window.
But if that practice continues, theymos thinks that routing this forum content directing to another url could be detrimental.
There was when I found it difficult to bear. But anything to keep our honorable forum alive and functional is worth it.
Where I see a link I want to click, I'll simply copy the link and paste in a new tab. I think that solves the problem within the short time.
