Does a single login system interest you?

My $0.02: I am not a fan of using social media logins for specialized sites - I have no problem maintaining separate logins for the few specialized forums I visit. I login to FB maybe once or twice a season, and basically just use it as an extended address book.

If Facebook/Google/et al became an option for logging in, I would not care - I simply would keep my CB login and not use them. If they became the _only_ option, I wouldn't sign up (or wouldn't renew). If you think offering them as an option would attract new users, by all means go for it :)

Honestly, using FB was the last of the options I was considering, because it's just slightly harder. I can add Google, Yahoo and LiveID pretty quickly.

Having forgotten my login credentials for other sites and whatnot, this is definitely a welcome idea. I'm all about technology and the newfangled internets don't scare me.

If the question is "will a single login system get more first-time people to post in the forums?" I suspect the answer would be yes. Although the registration is easy, people are lazy and/or don't want another account to remember. I know I've passed on various sites simply because I didn't feel like doing the registration.

Is more people posting on CoasterBuzz really a good idea? If it takes effort to sign in, maybe that weeds out some of the trolls right off the bat. I don't feel strongly about it. It's just an observation.

When I go to a NEW site I like to be able to use a system that I already have (IE Facebook) to log in and to populate all the profiles and such that all these sites like to have.

But After I do the initial log in I want the sites to be separate, so whatever I do on CoasterBuzz does not show up on Facebook (unless I want it to as an option or just using the like button).

That's my .02 so take it for what it's worth :D

I think it would be a great idea. It's convenient and it cuts down on the number of logins and passwords I have to remember.

Also, some of you guys don't get it, this would be just for authentication, nothing you do on Coasterbuzz would be posted to Facebook.

I am not more likely to use a site like CoasterBuzz if I can use previous accounts. Shopping is different.

I'm in.

TMI, Stooge.
