This is wrong. A) don't assume everyone is logged into Facebook or has an account B) You should not be sending every button click to Facebook.

I'm not sure to understand. Facebook login on BGA is purely optional and you can perfectly ignore it and login using a username / password.
Can you provide me a screenshot of the problem so I can see how to help you?

Have literally just started using BGA and am getting the exact same issue.
But here is my description:
I do not have a Facebook account and no one is logged into Facebook on my machine. As I have just set up the account I was asked to select a 5 games. Every time I clicked a game I kept getting sent to the following link:

The choices were logged but this is very irritating.
Another example is on the Lobby screen, I click "Select A Game Mode" then select "Simple Game" then get sent to the same link.

Friend is also having this issue
27. Mar 2021 18:03 • cavman07 • More information is requested by developers to reproduce this bug:
Upon clicking on the info fields on the login page to fill in information, it will sometimes redirect to either the Google or Facebook-connected login pages, even though I don’t connect those services with BGA.

This is happening to me, months later. Extremely irritating. I was about to try BGA again after years away, but I guess not, if Facebook is going to be required.
27. May 2021 21:48 • camaximum • More information is requested by developers to reproduce this bug:
This is happening to me now. Anything I click on leads to a "request" for access to my Facebook email. It sure feels mandatory if I can't do anything else. I barely even use Facebook, so I don't want it linked at all. Last week, BGA wanted access to my Google Play account, which I didn't really want to do either, but didn't mind as much as this.

I'm currently having the same issue. It happens, for example, when I click into a chat window. I didn't have this issue a lot previously, but I suspect Facebook is finding ways of getting around my Adblocker. I don't have a Facebook account, and if I did, I would not want to connect it with bga :/

click anywhere except certain buttons，pop out facebook login。

Because Souris asked for a screenshot, I made one... it's happening again: imgur.com/a/pnhteHG

Same thing, seeing Facebook login pop up all of a sudden. Same window as Tammo. This only happened today; it was fine yesterday. Using Vivaldi and Chrome, same thing.

Same here

I'm having a similar issue. It's not a fb login, but my google account login.
10. Feb 2022 14:59 • Antf • More information is requested by developers to reproduce this bug:
If I log in to my account and then click many of the buttons (e.g menu open) I am asked to connect my Facebook account which I don’t have.

Same, please fix
7. Mar 2022 17:30 • handras • More information is requested by developers to reproduce this bug:
When I click on the website, it randomly triggers opening the facebook login page in a new window every 2-3 clicks, not just the buttons, on the background too. I have never connected BGA to facebook.
