Why isn't there an official "Delete your Facebook account" day?

Why isn't there an official "Delete your Facebook account" day?

Normies will eat that shit right up.

I would need to create one just to delete it...

What do you get out of it?

I use my account for communication.

It'd be nice, though, if there was an easy way to strip out all the data I've dumped into it over the years. I'd like to delete all my posts, likes, uploads, etc. and just be left with a blank account for use on Messenger.

>but they'd still have ur datas

yes, but they would if I deleted the account and started a new one, too. I've accepted Facebook as a necessary evil. It's the messaging platform of choice of my friends, and it's also how all the parties and events I go to are planned.

>it's also how all the parties and events I go to are planned.

Nobody invites you directly? That's a shame.

>directly inviting

It was a link to that, not just to deactivate it.(but your data will still be stored at facebook and will be legally owned by facebook.)

"delete"
You mean deactivate

Wow, you're so cool

Obviously he doesn't, he's an edgy teenage autist who considers anything useful or popular to be plebian normalfag trash. Would you want to be friends with him?

>doesn't understand how social circles work

Isn't facebook the internet?

I have friends, who want me there, and thus invite me to gatherings in person, by calling, or by texting. If your friends do not do this to you, then my condolences. Personal invitations are infinitely more meaningful. Nothing edgy about it.

>texting is fine
>inviting on facebook is wrong
Go hang yourself faggot

I'm sure they do, user

It's a miracle anyone would want to hang out with you.

no, you can fully delete your account. i did with mine.

Poster has no idea who will actually show up.

They do, user :)

Yeah, I am not from the SnapChat generation. I apologize.

>I have three friends and we hang out in each others' basements

It sounds like you don't go to many parties held by friends of friends, user.

When's the last time you went to a BBQ?

>text

jesus user are you describing how you used to do this back in the 90s when you were in your 30s?

If I am invited either by a friend of a friend, or through one of my direct friends, who want me there, then I show up. Otherwise I do not.

It's pretty simple, really. I don't have to be at every party. I am not 16 anymore.

July 4th + fireworks included. Nobody got hurt.

It sounds like you have incredibly autistic rules about how you invite or get invited to events

I'm not autistic, so I just use Facebook

I celebrated that day about 4 years ago. I regret nothing.

You mean to say that you weren't around when one had to press "2" three times to get a letter "c"?

Son, have you done your homework for Monday?

When did this board become normalfag central? You fuckers seriously need to fuck off back to /reddit/ this instant.

T9 masterrace reporting in

Because you obviously won't be able to make a post about it on FB to get likes.

Tell me how because I'm gonna insta-do it right now

>there are college students today who were 9 years old when the iPhone was introduced
>there are legal adults who have never used or possibly seen a dumb phone

how?

I prefer human interaction instead of "general" invites that address no one in particular and sound like they seek attention and instant gratification. "Look how many "Likes" I am getting!"

I just chill with my buddies, and we enjoy each other's company. Feels good, mon.

You forgot your frog pic.

You got that backwards you dimwit, frogposters are the actual normalfags.

I understand your desire to chill with your buddies. I do the same thing. But I go to large events also.

I really don't see why you find that so offensive. But whatever, wasn't this thread about deleting facebook?

I love you user never forget that

well, it obviously varies from board to board

...

This would be nice. I'm going to be looking at how to do this.

>he actually meets people in person

There's an Activity Log where it lists everything you ever posted on your wall, or somebody else's wall, or on someone else's photo.

facebook DOT com SLAH *YOURUSERNAME* SLASH allactivity

I don't know what happens when you make a comment on a photo and then the poster of the photo hides it from you (maybe because he unfriends you or something).

It even lists your likes which is pretty helpful in case you want to undo everything.

problem is with an old account (mine is ten years old and I used to be very active on it), it would take literally hours, possibly days of free time, to clear manually

there are some greasemonkey scripts to do it though. Might give one a shot overnight

>there are some greasemonkey scripts
Or you could make your own, or use iMacros and go through everything and hit delete.

>disgusting, you mean fluid transfer?!

not really
in normie world, having facebook and twitter accounts are seen as the internet equivalent of having a name
anyone who claims to not have one or doesn't want to tell you is automatically a weirdo

You can always use a fake name though (at least most of the time). I have a go-to fake name and a go-to fake address that doesn't even exists.

>Hello, I'm David McDavidson
>"Hi David, I wanted to add you on facebook but seems you aren't on there"
>Oh yeah, forgot to tell on facebook I use user McAnonsbrethren
>"Literally why?"
>*puts tin foil hat on*
>"weirdo"

you can't escape the prejudice of the common man

truth

it's easier to just use your real name and not post on Facebook than to use an alias and post about your loli collection

I know a few people who literally do this. It works for them apparently.

Because there's absolutely nothing in between.

"in between" is being a normie and posting status updates and uploading photos to Facebook that you might regret in a few years, or using some other communication medium like Snapchat etc.

But if your friends use Facebook as their main communication method (re: most millenials), then you kind of need to have an account to at least use Messenger

And for that, a fake account is sufficient.

It takes 2 weeks to fully disable the accounts, most people would probably "delete" their account and then open the app a few days later, reactivating the account.

"user, why don't you use your real name on Facebook?"
"because I'm afraid of the government"

>have this conversation five hundred times

enjoy that, I'll just use my real name

>[citation needed]

>implying jewbook deleted your data from their servers

Normies keep oppressing me
>add me on facebook and we'll talk
I don't have one
>can you make one
REEEEEE I DONT HAVE ANY FRIENDS

>user McAnonsbrethren
I'm about to make that account and give it for free

Today, it was really nice, my sister was back in town so we all played cards as a family, and nobody noticed my brother drinking himself to a wet grave in his room :)

>someone new discovers Sup Forums - Technology
>opens up few threads to see what's going on
>sees retards fighting about facebook
>on a technology board

>having a facebook account
I admit I fell for the Facebook meme in 2005 as a freshman in college but once I learned that
a) high school kids were starting to get accounts
b) people were using it for things OTHER than making study sessions

I stopped using my account, and later (do not remember when) had it fully deleted. There is literally no advantage to having a facebook account. Do you really give a fuck about what political opinions your uncle holds or finding out why that faggot at work REALLY called out and left you to cover 2 people's shifts at once?

Why do you want to talk to normies?
