How do you erase a facebook account?

[Nomad]

You need to hover over "Settings"...you can see that option at the top of the screen, to the right. Then click on "Account Settings". Click on the blue "Deactivate" next to Deactivate Account. Select an option on why you are deactivating, select the checkbox to opt out of receiving email, then click "Deactivate My Account" and you're done!

But why would you want to deactivate your facebook account? Facebook is soo cool, I can't live without it. Reactivating is easy, all you have to do is log in to Facebook like you usually would if you had an account and you get back everything...all your pics, friends and settings. x
