When using credentials, the locale/language used is based on the browser/device location rather than fb settings #919

for post in get_posts( page_name, pages=page_count, credentials=( "username", "password" ) ):

I get this warning when running it on my local machine UserWarning: Facebook language detected as tl_PH - for best results, set to en_US

I get this warning when running it on my server UserWarning: Facebook language detected as zh_CN - for best results, set to en_US

I'm getting these warning when using credentials even though my facebook account's language setting is in EN US

I don't have this problem when using cookies but I'd rather want to use credentials since I don't want to remember to change the cookies for my app/tool every 10-11 months
