I had one way back in 2006. I didn't like it as much as MySpace. I deleted it back in Jan of 2010... Sheesh, two years with no Facebook.

I checked my sister's profile and they have my name listed as a "family member" but my name is not clickable... lol


I will get it back soon... just not now.

Once you create an account they want to keep you around as long as possible.  Here's a link to request permanent deletion:

I just requested deletion of my account. It's said that I have 14 days to go in and cancel my request but I'm thinking that ain't gonna happen.

I do have a Facebook account but since I returned from deployment I may check it ever so often. When I last went on I actually deleted about 40 people from my friends list for various reasons and I'm sure just as many deleted me for no reason. For one, I was getting too many requests from people I didn't know. BTW I get on it once a week and I use a false name for personal reasons. That said, I completely respect those of you who delete or choose not to have FB It was a nice novelty in the beginning but it is becoming a bit overrated....my 0.02

More than a bit overrated. It has just gotten downright boring. And the more I was logging on it seemed that I had less real reason to do so. I know that sounds odd, what I mean is the same headlines over and over for days, then a "FarmVille" notification (I never played FarmVille) about somebody misplacing their ass (donkey) and they need a bag of dried corn to lure the critter back home, blah, blah, blah. I gotta get a life anyway.

I have no use for FB honestly. I've tried it twice & deleted both of those accounts out of frustration & just plain dis interest in what the heck everyone else is doing. I'm not into staying "so" connected with everyone first off, but secondly I think I'm kind of old school & a bit more private than what FB can offer as privacy protection.
This 2nd time around with FB I was just not logging in very often but then heard the latest ways they've come up with to spy on their users & just had to delete based on that alone.

When I first heard that you could find old friends I jumped on it like a duck on a June bug. I found old ones and made some new ones in the little time I've used it. But I'm no addict.
