Dittoed. It's very fucking annoying, having to click 'back' all the time.

Of course that works, but sometimes you forget and close the new window you opened and then the MR page is gone, too. Then sometimes you just click OPEN WINDOW by mistake without realizing it, you close it and you're like WHAT THE FUCK?!?! Hehehe.

It's not a huge hassle, not at all, but it would be more user-friendly if when you clicked a link it opened in a new window.

I hate it when I do that first thing, then all the new posts aren't blue any more, so I hate to hunt around for them. Annoying, it is.

Well you shouldn't be on a Mac in the first place :P. I haven't encountered any problems yet. Making you click the back button is a way to slow down your posting.
But seriously, get a mouse with more than two buttons and your life in the internet will improve dramatically as you can assign the back and forward keys to the extra buttons. If it's not your computer, well life just isn't always fair.

Not that I am on a Mac, but I'm sure some people are. And it's not my computer. And life is shit, but what does that have to do with it? MR are duty-bound to make their experience as user-friendly as possible. :roll:

I'm bumping this because this still annoys me. I constantly click links, close that page and then realize I closed the metalreviews.com page, too. Lame. :lol:
