Hello,
I think its must to enable social login addons likes ( facebook , twitter , etc. )
our script is dealing with social networks so its a shame that there no direct social login .
also this will allow us to know some cheaters users who use our sites to Spam our users .
Regards

Hello,
Script is dealing with social networks, but we don't want to integrate login via Facebook, Twitter or any other social network. These days too many websites depends on these social networks (many of them have login only via social network), we don't want to be part of those websites. Also, there are many reasons for not implementing them, here you have some examples:
1) If any social network doesn't like this kind of websites, with login via Facebook for example, they have more power against your website.
2) If somebody joins via Facebook or Twitter, doesn't means is a real person, is very easy to create fake twitter or facebook account.
3) If somebody is really interested in your website, he can spend few seconds to join on your website. If he doesn't have few seconds to join, then will be just another inactive user (increasing database size useless).
And many other reasons. Maybe will be in the future, but we don't recommend.

I do agree, it's not a useful feature, what happen if that social media website close, or suspend the user account. They have control over your users which we don't want.
