The notification about new posts in subscribed threads directs to the same page (the forum).
The link on the main page directs from www.pcsx2.net to forums.pcsx2.net. I think it's debatable if this is still the same or already a different page.
Target blank is not allowed in xhtml 1.0 (strict) and xhtml 1.1 it is only allowed in xhtml 1.0 (transitional) and possibly in (frameset) which are both more or less backwards compatible sets to html4. html5 allows it again and hopefully html5 and xhtml1.1 get merged at some point. I guess target blank will be removed then.
I know that target="_blank" is like a religion. Some believe in it and some not. Obviously we belong to different sides. I guess posting links about 10 reasons against target blank won't help much. Do as you like.
Just the link in the pm notification is really inconvenient and I think it is not in agreement with your statement about external and internal links.
