My Facebook account will be permanantly deleted tomorrow :(

On 14/04, I requested for my Facebook account to be deleted - "Your account has been deactivated from the site and will be permanently deleted within 14 days". So it's either already been deleted, or is about to be.

But now I feel as though I should stop it!

Please prevent me from re-opening it. :frown:
and we care because?

My Facebook was crap so I wanted to delete it. I only used it to catch up on local/community news. I've changed my profile picture twice in six years and havent posted/chatted for ages either. But I still feel that I'm going to miss it. I only had about 220 friends; most of which were abandoned accounts, or ones I didn't care about. I kept noticing that over the years certain people have been un-friending me, which made me feel bad, and I 'unfollowed' so many people so that I didn't receive their nonsense in my news feed to the extent that I realised that my account was crap. I also hated the thought of people 'scouting me out' and seeing my dead Facebook account, so I wanted to fix up.

But now I'm wondering if that was the right thing to do; lurking on Facebook was my primary resource for stuff, e.g. university updates, family who don't live near, etc.

Okay, well I guess you have at least 3 options...

1. Try to keep/reactivate your account.
2. Create a new account.
3. Do nothing.

Good luck:smile:
