I never use Facebook anymore, so I decide to deactivate it, but my profile stil exists. All of my friends can see my profile, and people can still add me as a friend. Is there anyway to make it, so it's like I never had an account to begin with? |

Try this: "HOW TO DELETE (long version) Go here (working link above): http://www.facebook.com/help/contact.php?show_form=delete_account Click "Submit" and follow the instructions. Your account will be deactivated for two weeks, and if you DO NOT USE FACEBOOK IN ANY WAY during that period, your account is permanently deleted. I REPEAT: Your profile isn't deleted right away! You must NOT log in to, or interact in any other way with Facebook for at least two weeks, as it will cancel the deletion request. That includes NOT logging in to Facebook using any client (like the iPhone app or IM:s like Pidgin), NOT clicking embedded Like-buttons on other websites, NOT logging in to other services using Facebook Connect (like Digg) etc etc. Hey, while your're at it, delete all your browsing/forms history and cookies as well, to minimize the risk of accidentally using your account! If you want out - stay out, mmmkay? ;) This method is official and should be complete, i.e. no need to delete individual photos, comments, messages or items from your profile or anywhere else on Facebook! If you have any concerns whether your stuff is actually deleted (as opposed to being kept somewhere in the deep dungeons of Facbook's HQ) your best bet is to ask them using email: info@facebook.com. Please note that I'm not a part of the Facebook team, and consequently cannot fix anything that's broken. If you are experiencing problems with the link above (or anything else concerning your account) your best bet is to contact Facebook directly by sending an email to info@facebook.com explaining your problem. If someone has stolen your identity or if you are subject to any other form of "account abuse", try this form: http://www.facebook.com/help/contact.php?show_form=fake_profile or send an email, explaining your problem, to abuse@facebook.com ."
