Question: LOST forum behaves differently than other sites?

Just a random question.

When I browse LOST or other forums, I usually open all the threads I want to look at in new tabs. Normally, I do this by ctrl+clicking (or clicking with the scroll wheel) the link. On LOST, that opens the link in a new tab, but also switches the current window to the same one, rather than staying where its at.

So rather than using the short cut, I have to right click and then select open in new tab and it works. This only happens when I am logged in. When I am not logged in I can control click and open new tabs without it changing my current one.

This is the forum I see when logged out:

And this is what I see when I log in:

Just wondering...

The board-style you're using (which I think was the default for the old site) simply doesn't have the features setup the same way. If you change the board style of your account in your profile, you'll get the "not-logged-in" behavior, but it'll look different.
