as for "quite a bit of programming" i was compering a forums plugin for OpenID and to its facebook plugin and the OpenID seem to have more code in it than the facebook plugin did and at first i thort it was just because of difrent coders but it was same coder that writin both of them.

i dont think you will be giving FB the keys to your little domain as it will only have this when its part of a requested operation.

Very cool! And here you go, click this link to contribute real dollars to YaBB.

Regarding the marriage of Facebook and YaBB in terms of registration and log-in info being synced up, maybe someone could advocate on YaBB's behalf for Facebook to make it possible to have a register/login with a Facebook button that will allow 1-click registration for new members on any given YaBB forum.

In other words, get one of Facebook's developers to develop such an option for YaBB.  

On that note, it appears on this page that Facebook welcomes an open ID system. Maybe YaBB can take advantage of it.

Meanwhile, I suppose for now an admin can add a "Register Using Your Facebook Info" menu choice to their forum's menu. Clicking that link can lead them to an entry in your forum suggesting that they use their Facebook info to register for a YaBB membership.

Then politely explain to them how easy it is to register.  

Tongue in cheek in terms of the year Facebook was founded, YaBB was here first!

For those of you with a pool, try YaBBing poolside, or even in the pool as I like to sometimes do it.

if OpenID is that much of a pain in the arse (excuse my french) do we need the headache of OpenID as the facebook option seems a lot more easier to implement for admin and user ??

as for "having spoofing problems because they're using their cellphone." did we have a chat on this ?
i have a windows 7 phone and as far is i remember i have never had a spoofing problem from it if you pm me the url of the forum thats having spoofing problems from cellphones i will test it on my one for you and prob cam it for you as well.

ok cool if i can do anything to help let me know
Another thing to look at is whether or not comments made in a forum's FB section can be directly ported over to the forum - maybe into its own thread or into an RSS feed that can read from the forum? FB can import our RSS feeds without any trouble. Maybe there's a way to do the same in reverse.
