Links in the lobby don't properly make a new tab

When I click on Blog, Forum, etc., it doesn't make a new tab properly. It just replaces the adjacent tab. This is really bad. What if I have something important open in the adjacent tab? I click on the Forum button, expecting it to open in a new tab, and instead, it just replaces my important stuff!

Re: Links in the lobby don't properly make a new tab

I think this would be a browser problem, one page shouldnt be able to affect other pages
Also, are you sure you dont just have too many tabs open, and they dont all fit? There is usually some sort of way to scroll between them if it is

Oh, I just tried this on a different computer and it worked normally. And no I don't have too many tabs open.

This happens to me too, it replaces the tab on the right side of my current EE tab. Using latest chrome version on windows 10.

Does it also happen for other links in other websites?
I cant think of anything that would make the EE links different to any others...

Re: Links in the lobby don't properly make a new tab

I don't think it happens on other websites. Give me a website where links open in a new tab on left click and I'll test it. I was thinking it had something to do with flash, because doesn't chrome have its own version of flash or something?
