Default My posts are sent to FB friends-how to stop it?

I sign in with FB because it's about only way this forum would let me join a year ago-my ISP is in the Philippines ..

That's ok but a FB friend said today all my posts here are showing up on FB. How do I stop my FB friends from having my posts show up on their page?

A setting here or something I have to do on FB?

I see there is a "Publish this to your Facebook Stream" check box at the bottom of where you type in your post. So that's one way

Is there a way I don't have to uncheck that box everytime I post?

No Idea, I never sign in to any site using a third client site. I don't like the idea of some people I know, knowing everything I do. Sorry about that. Why can't you log into this site with a username ans password?

I think it was blocking my Philippines ISP as many US sites do, and I couldn't just register like anyone else. Right below where I am typing right now there's a FB section with a check box I can uncheck so it won't go to my Facebook Stream

Well I did the "lost my password" routine, got a new one and now will log in that way. But I see the FB check box is still there, so I guess I'm locked into FB here forever..

Cancel your membership with Facebook! It sucks anyway!

It's not adding my posts to FB anymore anyway since I started logging in the normal way.

I'm not into FB that much - only have 13 friends (mostly relatives) there-but I did buy a stroker for my XR200 through a vendor on FB
