Surely I'm not the only one that when using multiple windows you hit one of the the Nightmist windows and click on a url displayed in general chat. These often cause alot of problems by opening webpages (Which admit we know some people on here link to some nasty stuff or we just don't want to know.)
Would it be possible to add a toggle command to change them from being clickable?

Oh geez Duck!! I just got caught clicking the link you posted in the exact manner you trying to stop from happening. Thanks for the link not being porn, makes a nice change. :( I guess I support it since I'm forever trying to close windows I never wanted open in the 1st place

You don't understand. Say Nightmist is running in the background and you have another window partly covering it. You move to click the NM screen to bring it back up to the front, Half of the time there is a url on the screen and when you click the NM screen it brings up a web page instead of brings the NM client to the front. It's also annoying when your trying to highlight a bit of text then the screen moves thus making you click a url. (Granted that one can be solved with /scroll but you can see my point alot of the time when you don't want to open a url it's very easy to accidently do it without realising.)

...I don't have this problem at all ^^;

But... I guess if enough people have this problem, a /toggle<anything> feature would make sense...

it will only bring up the screen if you actually click the url, i can't believe the majority of the text on your screen is an url, and just look before you click?

Ducks are colourblind, he can't distinguish between the blue and white text around the black background.

Maybe change the client background colour?

The solution to anything anymore seems to be /toggle :(

You people are so picky, and so upset over things. And i can't believe that 90% of your screen is URL's. If it is, you need to find new friends or a new clan.

Hell, lets /toggle toggle to take off the toggle that you idiots already created. This way if you don't remember what all toggles you have on, you just /toggle toggle. :ph34r:
