Light-bulbPermissions we ask on Gamers Unite!

Please_share

Update (11/14/12): Updated screenshots due to Facebook's UI changes. Also offline_access permission has been replaced with a longer expiration method and we no longer as for this permission.

When you play a new game on Facebook or do a Facebook Connect with external sites, the apps ask you for several permissions. There are some apps out there that ask for EVERYTHING that makes you think "Why do they need all these permissions? What do they need them for?Undecided"

On Gamers Unite!, we try to ask the most basic permissions possible. For example, if you are just loggin in to comment on posts, or to find friends to play games, we only ask for basic permissions (anything you made public such as name and profile pic). When you want to get your filtered game feeds, then only at that time we ask you for the right permission to read your Facebook wall so we can fetch the feed.

Here are the permissions we ask and what they are used for:

1) Your basic information: This is the information you share with the public on your Facebook settings. This is how you login to Gamers Unite!

permission dialogue box

2) Access posts in your News Feed: This permission is needed when you use the "My Feed" (filtered game specific posts), "Link Exchanges" to fetch your links, and the Snag Bar so we can fetch the game posts your friends posted on your wall.

3) Post on your behalf: ONLY for Snag Bar users who would like to leave comments on helpful posts - We need the "Write" permission so we can leave comments for you automatically.

write permission

4) Access my data any time: This permission allows us to read your wall even if you log out of Facebook. More information on this thread. We only ask this for Snag Bar users which you can revoke too. UPDATE: We no longer ask for this permission.

We care a lot about our members privacy and hope this helps many feel comfortable about being our member and using our game tools! :)

@Debby Grimes Overbey - I don't understand your question. What can you not logon to with Facebook?

Picture?type=square

I cannot logon with facebook. I have tried over and over. I need new Farmville friends and was hoping I could get some.

@Jovan Bell - The Snag Bar does not work with myVegas. We recommend you use our Game Feeds app instead.

@Especia À Puce - The game you are playing handles distribution of any rewards you collect, whether you collect them manually or use the Snag Bar.

@Kayla Evans Steinmann - Please visit the thread linked below and post your Snag Bar issue there. Before you post, however, please make sure to read the entire original post. Yes, all of it. Especially the large highlighted section at the bottom of the post.

I love the snagbar but I do have 2 issues with it.... #1 When I log off of my computer I have to re-instal the snagbar...EVERY TIME! #2 It says I have snagged stuff for Coasterville but they do not appear in my giftbox. Those are the only issues I have other than that, I love the extra help!!!

Okay first of all you do not have to have Gamers unite web page open to be snagging,if you click SNAG in the snag bar and you see the numbers going up next to the gift box that means you ARE snagging.I love this snag bar,my only issue is when I need to get to toolbar preferences half the time I cant,and when I finally do get it to load I cant click anything.other then that its been a God Sent to me.And as for the stuff that keeps popping up,go in to preferences and check the box that says stop popups and that will go away.If you learn to use it you will love it.

@Donna Eeles Seamon - My Snag Bar is working exactly the way it should. The problem you are having is actually a Facebook issue, not a Gamers Unite! issue. It's not uncommon for Facebook, for whatever reason, to not return the information that is requested of them by apps. Try logging out of both Gamers Unite! (click the "log out" link in the top right corner of any GU! page) and Facebook. Close & reopen your browser, then log back into Facebook. Come back to GU! and log back in (click the blue "Connect with Facebook" button in the top right corner of the page). Then see if "Checking Status" box still remains open.

I can't seem to get the process to go beyond the "Checking Status" box. I'm logged into FB, as it asks, and I've tried selecting every link in the box. I can't remove it, and move on to select the games and items that I want to snag. I can see them, and none of the games I play are listed....that's a disappointment. At this time, I'm going to uninstall, I think you have more work to do.

To avoid the pop-ups it is necessary to enter the configuration of the Gamers Unite, is an icon in the shape of nut that is to the right of the icon where they are another icon of the box of gift where you see to that you present you are helping. In configuration, you deactivate the option " Stop sign showing pop-up stall when Snag bar snags something " .También can select other options if as activating that the program leaves writing comments in the requests of help of your neighbors, also to select the type of game in that you want to help. It is necessary to think more before criticizing something, and the Gamers Unite is not a garbage, probably beech a lot of garbage in the head of those that lose the education with an application that helps us and that is free.
