Stop related threads from opening?

I'm having a hard time scrolling through threads I am interested in because there is another thread open that I don't care about below it on the same page. When there are pictures loading up it is even more of a pita, and scrolling through the screen jumps all over the place and makes things very frustrating.

What do I have to do to stop if from opening this other topic I don't care about? If you can give me an answer, thanks in advance!

Disable Related Threads in your UserCP - Edit Options menu.

JT, Can this option be disabled by default, rather than enabled? This is becoming a major issue to new members since it's been an option and is causing people to respond to a post just to find out that their response went into the related topic rather than the original post.

Sorry, this is not an option.
