I have the same message on the forum I set up to design/test skins. The site administrators are promising to allow non-Facebook access in the near future for the beta-testing. Please remember that it's only in testing mode at the moment. If they allow non-Facebook access to the tests i'd assume that the v.5 forums won't require Facebook either when it goes live. Also note that Facebook is currently needed only to sign in initially so that they get you to 'like' them. Once that's done the Facebook element can be removed. It doesn't help me though as i'm not on Facebook. support.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=openbetadiscussion&action=display&thread=426330#

Was just coming in here to ask you if you got the same PM, leading you here... www.facebook.com/ProBoardsFreeForums/app_4976803795 and fully expected you be very suspicious of this. lol Also wondering if once you sign up for the beta, or even wait until the full version is released, will you be able to go back to the old version if you don't like it? Does seem like some interesting, useful new features though.

Clearly i'm not the person to ask about the Facebook app. The only person I know here using an app is herbertespinosa who uses the mobile app. Ideally i'd like some feedback from him, (and anyone else using apps), on how the forums perform with them. It would us to improve the layout. Are there scrolling issues? Would it be better if we had more/less forums on the home page? Is there an ideal number of posts per page? Are there colour combinations that work well/badly on skins? For those people interested in the upgrades, (what they are and what might happen), here is the main site v.5 link board. If you spot anything of particular interest then let us know. There are 2 million posts in the general talk thread. I make have missed one or two. support.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=openbetadiscussion
