So, I figured out what the deal is with Facebook Connect. It's not enough anymore to be an accredited applications developer, and to have gone through the authorization process once.
You see, once upon a time there were two valid forms of authorization: you either had a mobile phone number on record with Facebook, or you had a credit card. I used the phone method.
But that's not good enough. You get that error message if you don't have a credit card number on record. I filled it out today, but I'm very unhappy with that requirement, and the lack of explicit information in the developer's guidelines regarding that lack. I hate the 800 pound gorilla that Facebook has become.
