Yes. After reading your post, i realized that it really HAS to be changed.
I always go direct to
http://forum.ableton.com, so it is
workable, but it is really bad for people who are new and come here
through the main site...

If you don't open in a new window, is it implied that you endorse the link? I wonder if this will soon become law somewhere...

endorse the link? never heard of that unwritten rule..
the rules I know..
- you don't want people to leave your page.. never..
- 99% of links on this forum are just small pleasure time sidetours, such as your nebtubes and engrishes..
so I don't want to hit 'previous page' all the time because I'm visiting this site, not a link hubtub..
- its annoying..
- and annoying..

It's true...if there is one reason why you must engage this feature, it's me.

Sweet, Google Chrome text issues seem to be solved with this nice Web 2.0 look
I like this
plus I never knew I had 2 unread messages, huh?

OMG you actually use a one button mouse???
that one button mouse is silly, why limit your mouse when all the right click option exist in the OS, that was one thing I never understood.
