Thanks for your kind words. I agree with you, it shouldn't be displayed in gamepages, but unfortunately it's not up to us to decide. Once they'll have done with the major changes we will try to find a deal. However we are currently planning something interesting to solve these kinds of problems and improve site's functionality, there are many other widgets around that can do the job without ruining the layout. I'll definitely document myself in the next days. |

I was busy with work the last months but now I'm back to AB. The only thing that really shocked me was not the facebook banner itself but its position, especially in the reviews. Even though I'm not into facebook any more, I do not have any problem with these kind of crosslinks to increase one sites traffic. And (really) you ARE my hero if you've managed to understand the site mechanics =) and I've noticed the very good changes you made. Speaking as a Designer I absolutely agree that graphic/layout changes are always seen in a subjective way. But the facebook banner HAS to be on another position. Really. Really. Really. Really. ..... Really! As it is for now, it messes up the whole concept of the review pages. I mean, you open a review and you read the headline of the title and than the first screenshot you see on your right is not a screenshot but instead a facebook 'ad'. This is especially a problem for lower resolutions (1024 etc.) as for most laptops or portable devices. So, if the layout in general will change - be free, go nuts but please, the facebook 'thing' has to change its position. Usually I try not to interfere with layout decisions (*) but I love AB to death and so here I have to. Quote:

Can we stop before this escalates into a flamewar over an effectively pointless tangent? Quote:
If you have problem with Facebook's privacy policies you have to take it up with them. Period. If you have problem with Abandonia having a Facebook "Like!" block displayed, you have to take it up with Abovo. Period. We have nothing to do with either. |

That's exactly why I don't have a Facebook account at all? At least not with my real name and whatnot. Why do you think we use alternate names in forums such as this one? Why don't you use your own very name if you feel so confident that it is not a problem? Also, I didn't misinterpret your message. What you just said prove to me that I interpreted it perfectly. And also, I do sometimes feel like not many people have common sense in the world, which I think you would be better to refer to instead of insulting other people intelligence, which I have not done myself. |

EoF, please stop acting like your are the only one with a brain on earth, you are offending other people's intelligence. Quote:
What I wanted to say is the same thing that the other repeated you, that it's not a link on AB that reveals your private details, it's all there already because you have entrusted them to Facebook, if you are so scared than you shouldn't have a FB account at all. |

Darth hit the nail on the head there. Just to conclude a little thing: Get to know your FB privacy settings, check the page preview which other people will see. There is NO reason why anyone should see anything other than your name and profile image. Your contact details etc. should NOT be visible unless you have set them to be that way. |
