    I deleted mine about 6 months ago after going on and off deactivating it for the past year. I find the privacy was getting a bit much, and the number of people that would be of the opinion that being friends on there and not interacting at all for 3+ years meant we were maintaining friendship/they could comment on my life to others. Too highschooly. It was handy having birthday reminders. That's pretty much all I miss. It still scares me how easily the site tries to make me reactivate (1-click emails) and all my info is still just 'there' somewhere even though I entered false everything before I opted out.

    I have a couple of facebook accounts, one where I play games and don't know most of the people I have as 'friends', they're just other game players.

    And another for family and friends, it's a useful way to keep in contact with some people and I'm not really concerned about the privacy aspect because I accept just how wide open the internet is.

    I deleted my facebook because i spent too much time on it...i did it initially as an experiment to see how i would adjust to not having facebook in my life and i realised i dont miss it at all.. its like i broke out of a negative habit that did not bring anything positive to my life.

    I have been trying to eliminate all the time wasting habits in my life abd facebook was one of them

    In 2011 I deleted mine. After my sister who lives in France deactivated hers I didn't see any use of mine anymore. Before that I was still thinking about deleting it because of spam and drama. Also I deleted my Google + today, it felt good :smile:
