Your friend has to defeat her Facebook self in a 1 vs 1 Yahtzee match. She needs to enter the internet and find herself at Facebook.

I don't know, I don't think it does get deleted. I have had mine deactivated a couple times for several months at a time (including once for over a year) and it was still there when I would try to get back to it.

Like deleting it matters, anything on there worth spreading to the internet has already been spread to the internet and there is no way for her to stop it.

Hey, you could have been in on the sausage party when you visited Vancouver. But you had to go and stiff us :(.
Sorrry, I would have had to explain to my 24 year old sister and 28 year old cousin where I was going and I knew that it was "no girls allowed".

Oh, right...you were with your sis and cousin. Dammit, there was a girl there, and you could have tripled the female presence! :\

I was at a friends and they wanted to cancel their FB account. At first it wouldn't let them without them filling out a damn questionnaire telling them why they wanted the account deleted. Then all it did was disable the shit and told them if they ever log back in it will re-activate it and her page will be totally intact as it was before. Since it's not actually deleted does that mean they'll still do bullshit with her personal information she didn't give them permission to? Fucking ridiculous site.

Google it. You're only, like, the BILLIONTH person to ask this.

Hmm, I was contemplating deleting my facebook account, and then I had pretty much the best experience of my life as a direct result of facebook use.

If they would make the shit work like every other site a billion people wouldn't have to Google it. I've never seen another site where you have to jump threw so many hoops just to delete your fucking profile. All the more reason I hate this piece of shit site.

LOL.. Facebook is copying Myspace at sucking.

Hey Facebook, why did we leave Myspace? Oh ya.. it's because the simple non-annoying interface made it easier to maintain a profile. Now that Myspace is dead.. your interface is an annoying piece of garbage and your company is run by a total asshole.

I'm waiting for the Facebook 'tipping point' to delete my profile... Epic fail.
