FD - what do you mean by close? Do you want to keep the account, but just keep people who are not your "friends" from accessing your profile?

first, nice recovery. you are definitely a prime suspect in asking people to google stuff for you. If you contest this, I will find at least 10 posts where you ask about something which can be easily googled.

He is just grasping at straws to try to win this argument. Closing and deleting are same. If "closing" means something different for him, then he is using the wrong term.

Unless closing to him, means logging out or closing his browser window. The plebeian free-version makes that a lot more difficult.

Well I would have thought that closing and deleting were the same thing but after reading Matt's link I noticed they were different in facebooks world. From what I read if you close the account its not active but people can still view your page and you can open it back up. If you want your account completly Deleted you need to follow the link that Matt showed to have all your info deleted off the system.

Here read this.

Ever tried to leave Facebook and found out they only allow you to "deactivate" your account? All your personal data, including photos, interests, friends etc will still be saved indefinitely! You don’t have to be a conspiracist to find this quite fishy (or simply annoying)!

Maybe you see no reason to leave Facebook yet?

If you go back to my original Let Me Google That For You that is the first link that comes up.

Internet plus firstdown = Scary

Thats how I figured out that there is a difference. Its all of you trying to figure out if there is a difference and what it is that are f&^ked up.LOL

I asked this:

I wish someone could tell me how to close the account because I have tried several times.

You sent the info on how to delete the account when I was just looking at how to close the account and there is a difference from your own link.
