followed by

"PlanetSide Universe is requesting permission to do the following:

I'm curious what this does... before I allow access, I mean. What does the app do and when does it do it?

If you press the like button on the bottom of a post, it will post that to Facebook.

It also allows Hamma to do freaky stuff to your pictures.

I dont think any basic information is accessed really :p

The Like button is independent of the Facebook bridge. The bridge will import your details if you are new, and if you are existing user you will have the option to have your forum posts posted to Facebook, or add a reply to an existing Facebook post.

TLDR??? We use it to let you login, you have the option to have your posts posted to Facebook.
