Hello to all,
I have suggestion, if it's possible, to add automatically target="_blank" to external links posted on forum!
I think that is better for user experience, because I need to stay on forum when click on link on some external post links!
Just hit backspace when done and you're sorted?
As suggested, for security purposes, connections can be interfered with for example and in browsers, the state of tabs that are open can be detected by using malicious tracker cookies and can pull a lot of data if that site is still open in the other tab. It can be done anyway when you click on random stuff as they can see where you've just been to in some cases (browser dependent) but it's a bit more difficult to do.
And the above link of consideration of 'child' tabs in browsers.
