How do you delete a fb account?

You first have to login. Then, you have to click "Account" in the top right hand corner. Other choices under "Account" will show up. Click "Account Settings" and then scroll all the way down. The bottom button says "Deactivate Account". There should be the Word "deactivate" (written in blue). When you click it, your account should be deactivated.* this does not perminatly delete it

*It may or may not ask you if you are sure.
