		<blockquote>

Anyway, the reasons why it has been like this: 
- Opening a link in a new tab requires 0 extra input. (Just middle mouse or ctrl click or mouse gesture click or whatever you want)
- As Skyride pointed out, opening links in a new tab by default takes away choice. Now you can easily choose whether to open it in the same tab or in a new one, without any overhead. (see previous point)

</blockquote>

I know there has been threads about this before. The bigger reason to change it ! 
I am not going to make a huge argument about this, cause as you say; its not that hard to hold control or mousewheel. 

9/10 times I want to return to ETF2L after hitting a link. Saying it takes away choices is kinda weird. Since opening in new tab gives you more options the way I see it.  

And a big fuck off to IE6. Glad we agree on this :)

@compton: its the other way around]]></description>

    	    <description><![CDATA[It's not hard to implement: true. But htis exact request has come by 3 or 4 times now.
See http://etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-547/?recent=3597 and http://etf2l.org/forum/league/topic-2566/?recent=33382 for example. I know there is at least one more thread about it, but i can't find it right now.

There's also the added effect that some IE6 users (still being used in work environments) have no tabs and thus get a lot more windows open. But then again, i don't really want to support IE6 anymore, so that's not much of an argument. :P]]></description>

Yeah, thats what im saying. 
But like pedro said, it only takes a couple of min to fix it.]]></description>

No we dont,  first of all: It dont take one hour it take like 5 minutes to do this, second of all it really should be open in a new window if you leave the site from etf2l, this should in my eyes have been done a long time ago.

    	    <description><![CDATA[On Chrome, right click and choose the first option to open in a new tab, second to open in a new window. Firefox does the same but other way around, as does Opera, if I remember it right. 
That's how I deal with links that would take me away from where I still want to be. That also should be everything you need, since there's no other browsers. None at all.]]></description>
