A little piece of me dies....
....every time I click on a link that doesn't open in a new tab. Why must you all torture me so???
Re: A little piece of me dies....
ETA: Why isn't that the default option? I don't really understand why it is set to open in the same window and you have to change it.
YES!
I often wonder that too kbaby, but i put it in the category with what's the point of PMs if you have to page someone.

Molly, my favorite is when someone has gone to the trouble to make the link into one word or a description instead of the long url and you think, surely if they can do that it will open in a new window, and then BAM!, jokes on me.
i'll admit... i don't know how to make it "open in new window".
Whenever I put a link, I just c/p it from another browser into my post. Is there a different way I should be doing this??
ETA: nevermind, i just figured it out. I never use the link feature, i always just c/p it. I will now remember to use that feature to make sure it's selected to open in new window because while i admit that i didn't know how to correct it, i also did hate it when they wouldn't open in a new window.

That's what I do too! But then again it doesn't bother me if it opens in a new window or not.

Just a test to see if I can do it. I never knew about so I apologize that I never linked properly...
Forgiven? Forgiven.

This; I would never assume because it irks me too. I open everything in a new tab anyhow as having too many open windows bothers me too.
