Not very much happens when you link the accounts
It will ask you to authorize the forum to access your basic info on Facebook and will give you the option to import a few details from your 'info' page on Facebook (interests, date of birth, that kind of things).
The main difference, is that from that point on, you will be able to publish to Facebook any reply or any thread you start. This will appear on your wall (only if you tick the box each time). You will also be able to 'like' a thread, and this will show on your wall. You will also see '5 of your friends' like this thread message next to the posts.
On your Facebook wall, people will see a short summary of the post you liked with a link to the Forum.
New members will also be able to register by using their Facebook account to fill out most of the info.
To give you an idea of how it looks, I have ticked the 'Publish to Facebook' box for this reply, and you should be able to see the post on my Wall on Facebook.

There's an A.P.P. for that!

Each page takes so long to finish downloading that I never actually get to see the latest posting - my patience isn't too bad but even I'm not going to wait THAT long!
Not sure how long it's going to be before work notices but if I suddenly stop posti
Is the "Publish to Facebook" still working?
I tried it (from two different browsers) and it just hangs there without posting.
