What would it do?...

Plus I prefer not to install apps because of privacy concerns..

This has been discussed and widely condemned (mainly by me, but I am a god amongst men so whatever).

Facebook App would add nothing to the game except unwanted popularity and thousands upon thousands of dumbstruck 12 year old girls looking confused about what a train is.

There are people wanting to have facebook in their fridge. But IMHO I prefer to have computer free from facebook like community portals.

Dont see the point of having Facebook/Twitter/Whatever "Social" network. Because so far i can see, TT-forums is a;ready a social thing . You know that there are real people behind those weird names. (Or at least they try.)

I dislike facebook-like community portals. For me it is place to talk about OpenTTD. I prefer to go with real people to cinema/bicycle/play board games than use facebook.

...play boar games...

Is that the one where you grab it by the tusks and fling it backward over your shoulder?

Please forgive both the sarcasm and the off topic nature of this post. I had a moment of humor weakness.

Oh please, Facebook is freaking everywhere enough without a blatant Facebook ad in a free and open-source game.

Who's going to pay for this add?

[Dave]

Not sure what you're on about Lawton.

Can we put this issue to bed? It's obv not gonna happen - the OTTD devs have made it very, VERY clear.

I at first assumed this whole thread was just about some sort of Facebook integration with the forums, rather than the game. Can't say I'm personally keen on that either, mind you.
