Make Links Open in a New Tab / Targeted links

Every time someone posts a link in the forums, it leads you to the site, but on the same page. This is not too good because you can't check it out and discuss it at the same time. So I think that all links in the forums should have a
<a href="something" target="_blank">
or target function. What this function does is it sends you to the website, but on a different tab. There would be an option asking if you want it to be targetted or not.
Reasons to support:
- “I open links but it opens on the same tab. So I need to find the post again”
- “I've always just right-clicked stuff and I'd rather do this instead of using the ”open link in new tab“”

i mean like you can use ctrl + click , support anyways , but wouldn't that fill up the window real quick?

guide to make good projects <3


Think! Is saying if you support a suggestion necessary? No! People can just tell by your constructive post after it. You have more freedom on your tone!
Forumers, especially new, may also get upset if you say “no support!!!” at them! They may take the whole post in a negative tone, and that makes them upset!
Instead, you can kindly say why their suggestion has cons. They will take it as “constructive criticism” and be happy. - dertermenter

I just do a three-tap by habit on my keyboard to open most links, so I don't really see this affecting me or most users very much.

Feel free to message me on my profile if you need to tell me something/want someone to talk to.
