Facebook Integration

The website is now integrated with fConnect.

This means:
  • If you already have an account = you can go into your User Control Panel (UCP) and merge your account with your Facebook account.
  • If you do not already have an account = you can click 'Login' without actually registering a new account, and connect to Facebook, using it as your login.


There are numerous advantages to this. The primary advantage is cross-domain support while we grow. You may have separate "accounts" on each website in TGN, but if you link each of them to your Facebook account you will not need to remember separate login information for each website.

In the future we may again change our authentication system, but for now this will accommodate an immediate need. For those of you who do not use Facebook, please disregard these changes as they will not affect your use of the site.

If you have any problems using the fConnect feature, please let us know.

There are still separate accounts. The only difference is that you don't have to remember different logins for each site.

It has been reported that the core functionality is broken due to a path issue (missing file). I am aware of the issue and will fix it when I have time. Until then, you can still register and login normally.
