    I've been with ARP for a long time ( though I never have time to post :( ).

    Anyway , on the main page when you are using firefox and you click on the ARP forums a new window opens.

    This might be crazy coming from one guy :nuts: but :mrgreen: it be awesome if it opened in the same window.

    If not is there anyway to personaly set it so it can do it?

    You fellas have a nice day :thumb:

    Now, back to the topic;

    TBH, I actually prefer the forums to open seperately. It'll be much easier for some users if they want to refer back to an article they just read without the need to open the ARP mainpage in a new window.

    i rather everything opens in one page.. multiple windows will get cluttered.. if i need a separate window, i can always right-click, open in new window.. :think:

    I prefer everything not related to open in a new page. :) Easier this way... and everything related to the page will open in the same page. I thought that's the right way of doing things, no? :think:

    And most of the time if I don't want it to open in new window, I'll right-click and open in a new tab in the same window. :thumb:

    aKho, too many window? If you are using Firefox, can right-click and open in new tab what. :D

    I actually hate it quite a lot because I am a 24/7 tab user.

    I can't live without tabs and when a new window opens it really bothers me.

    Well I see some people dont :nuts: :haha: so you fellas keep up the work :thumb:

    Btw - I like the re-do on the website, very good stuff

    why follow the crowd? :think:

    too bad i hate tabs.. 'cos have this fear of accidently closing all windows. anyway, just hoping the main page, when click on forums (e.g.) will open it in the same window, that's all.. :whistle:

    Oh...you mean it doesn't open in a new tab? Hmm...I'm using Maxthon, so I don't know.

    aKho: No we are not just following the trend, I prefer that myself. I occasionally browse both the main site and the forum together, and if it doesn't open in a new tab, I would be really annoyed. (overclockers.com)

    aKho: Like that you should go download SessionSaver .2 extension. Save your last session, even when you open 2 windows with multiple tabs. The next time you open again, 2 windows with all the tabs will be opened as they were. :thumb:

    Actually if you have more than one tab and you close firefox will popup a message warning you, go firefox :dance:

    You'd probably be the only person i heard that dont like tabs. :nuts:

    Haha. Anyways, what you guys need in FireFox is the plugin Zuephok mentioned, it will force open new windows into new tabs.( just like how Maxthon does it.) :thumb:
