Aquarium Advice Apprentice
When I am browsing forums with Firefox, I like to control-click on interesting threads to open them in a new tab while I continue to scroll down the list of topics in the forum. Then I go through and read all the threads that I opened in their own tab.
When I try and do this on Aquarium Advice, Firefox will open a new tab but also change the current tab to that thread at the same time. If I right-click on the link and select "open in new tab" everything works as normal. Control-click just doesn't work like it should because the current window goes to the link. This behavior doesn't seem to happen on other sites, but the ones I am on frequently are based on vBulletin.
Any idea why this happens? Is it by design? or is there some funky javascript that is forcing the current tab to update?
