once agai, this is another issue I was told to come here about. it’s copied from that forum, you can get the get the link [here](https://devforum.roblox.com/t/please-require-confirmation-before-bookmarking-a-topic/1836889)

When pressing F on a topic, the Bookmark modal appears. My first reaction is to click off because I probably didn’t mean to open it, because a normal F is probably too easy to open it in the first place.

But, that saves it as a bookmark.

This isn’t a bug because the same thing happens most forums, it’s just an annoyance.

What I think _should_ happen is when I click off, it does nothing and ignores the bookmark. But, if I click the “Save” button, THEN it can make the bookmark.

In summary, just make it so clicking off does nothing, and you have to click Save before a bookmark is saved.
