How do I get off the Facebook timeline?

[Katy]

I got on my Facebook page and it was the new timeline thing. But I'd never chose to do that? How do I go back to the old one?

you can't. facebook is forcing the retarded timeline on everyone

You can't go back. Time Line in mandatory. Everybody will be switched over to it by the end of March.

there is no way to remove it - everyone is being converted to the timeline - it's the new look for facebook, not an optional update

this guide will help you learn how to use it

it will take you a few days to get used to the changes, but overall, it's much better than the old profile

you can trick your browser into making it so you see your old profile, but everyone else will still be seeing your timeline profile, along with anything you dont want them seeing, and you wont be able to see anyone else's timeline profile then either

Please accept it, Because we have no other to choose. after March 30 every facebook accounts will be converted to it.

You can't.

There's no way to undo the Timeline upgrade. Although for the moment Facebook did not make a clear statement in any of its official pages about how the upgrade would be deployed, and as a consequence there is a lot of false information going around, experienced users know that Facebook upgrades of this size have never been optional.

Besides, there are clear evidences that indicate that there will be no way to go back to the old Profile. Take a look at the article in the source to see what those evidences are.
