From now on ... you must login using Facebook Connect
Preamble: SocialMedian is down on Status 0 (Zero) now.
I got 4 (four) mails telling me proudly:
WTF? I was only testing Facebook connect and did not even see the merge dialog once.
WTF? After somehow logging in via my Facebook cookie (I believe) I wrote a comment on SM and guess what happened? It disappeared and I was logged out.
WTF? A minor issue but one might call it a big personal/ego case. My Socialmedian was gone and the not square (!) Facebook profile picture was shown distorted on SocialMedian.
WTF? Not to mention the other bugs I reported and where nobody seems to work on solving the reproducible bugs since weeks.
Scott, could you please beam yourself down into the machine room and start working on the 'below light speed drive'. I don't expect warp speed.
Send to identi.ca/twitter/friendfeed/socialmedian etc.:
#SocialMedian @socialmedian 1st case of forced #facebook connect usage. WTF? How to get back to u/p log-in? WTF? Seriously in bad mood now.
OK. 1st reaction via twitter:
socialmedian @Markus_Merz that's how fb connect works. to remove facebook connnect go to facebook and delete the socialmedian application
@socialmedian I don't even see the SM app on facebook.
@socialmedian I was also never asked if I accept the SM app & repeat: I never saw the merge dialog.
I am going to Facebook now to check/look for/install and hug/delete/shoot/destroy that SM app.
I got 4 (four) mails telling me proudly:

You can now instantly and easily share news with your Facebook friends!
Please note: Your previous socialmedian username/password combination has been disabled. From now on when you log on to socialmedian you must login using Facebook Connect.

Inappropriate?OK. After finding the SM app - It is in the 'authorized' section and does not show up under 'lately addded/used' - and deleting it on Facebook I tried again:
@socialmedian (not following me) Yep, there it is. Expected the app under 'lately used' or whatever it is in EN. I am using DE environment.
@socialmedian OK. Standard u/p works again. Will try to get the merge dialog again.
@socialmedian OK. Now I get the two step connect dialogs incl. merge.
@socialmedian OK. Only one "successfully merging" mail received.
I will test the Facebook connect and esp. check for loops and double status messages.
Points open:
To be watched: WTF? After somehow logging in via my Facebook cookie (I believe) I wrote a comment on SM and guess what happened? It disappeared and I was logged out.
Not OK: WTF? A minor issue but one might call it a big personal/ego case. My Socialmedian avatar is gone and the not square (!) Facebook profile picture was shown distorted on SocialMedian.
This is getting personal: WTF? Not to mention the other bugs I reported and where nobody seems to work on solving the reproducible bugs since weeks.
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?Hi Markus,
It looks like you're having a variety of issues. You seem to be the only user reporting these issues so it looks like an isolated incident. We can take part in a call and chat about all your concerns, issues, and difficulties and make sure that they're resolved.
The best way for me to help you is to contact me directly so we can reach a solution promptly.
Best,
Scott1 Comment

Scott, my priority right now are the äöüß issues with a) topics and b) cutting of articles after the 1st äöüß in the title. You should find the issues on your dashboard.
I solved the not working/updating news network in a DIY way by deleting a bunch of topis.<irony>Thanks for your help and technical analysis of the problem</irony>.
This facebook issues are absolutely secondary for me.
It looks like the connect issues had been a temporary glitch and maybe the comment went to dev/null because of irritated tabs in Firefox.
The usage of the Facebook avatar picture is kind of 'bad user respect' but should be easily solved.
I really can't understand why you always insistent on a call. I don't like synchronous communication and I normally also don't chat. I try voluntarily to describe reproducible cases in my free time and you can start to reproduce the issue whenever you feel like. If you are not comfortable with this procedure then SocialMedian should not choose the getsatisfaction solution which I like very much.
