    Hello everyone!

    So I've noticed a little quirk that is easily solvable on my end, but would be really cool/dandy if you guys (the website dev team) changed it.

    When you click the button that actually says VOTE on our webpage for each website, make it so it brings the voting into another tab. This way you don't have to fiddle with pressing back key on the browser and stuff. Back when I was learning all there was to learn in HTML I recall there being a simple function to change this, though I couldn't tell you what it is because I don't remember jack shit from HTML except that it was easy stuff.

    I know there are easy ways to go around this, such as CTRL+click, but I'm lazy and forget!

    Also, for some reason middle mouse button doesn't work on the vote button, not really an issue but a weird thing I noticed. (This also opens links in another tab)

    Thanks for considering,
    Luke/Ekul/Oolml

    I fear this would increase the probability of people not following through with the second part of the voting process.

    For firefox users, there's a handy little add on called "Snap links" that I use ritually. You just right click and drag a small box around whatever link/s you want to open, and they open in a separate tab. I totally forgot about ctrl + click / middle click because I've used this add on for years.
    I'm not sure about chrome, I would assume there's one too.
