Agreed!

I find that bug really annoying. :(

It's not a chrome thing, it's because the forum uses javascript to make the whole table row clickable rather than just the link. I don't know why it works correctly in other browsers than Chrome... It really shouldn't :P

Just tested, it doesn't happen with JS turned off.

Yep it's a Chrome thing then

It might be a Chrome thing, as it happens to me too.

Not for me, what browser?
I'm using 4.0 firefox. Links look normal to me, not javascripped.

Normally in about 95% of websites, middle-clicking does the same as: Right-Click->Open In New Tab

However middle-clicking on these forums opens both a new tab, and sends the current tab to that link as well. This makes it quite annoying to try and open multiple threads according to my browsing habits (which can't be THAT uncommon!).

I'm assuming that some Javascript is causing this, can anybody shed any light on this, and is it fixable or is it some strange feature of this message board system?
