How to Disable Facebook timeline

This method for removing Timeline only applied to those who enabled it before its public release. Now that it's being rolled out to everyone, there is no way to remove Timeline and revert back to the old profile.



Step 1: Head to the Facebook Developers page  where you originally created an app to enable Timeline. Click "Edit app."
Step 2: The only way to remove Timeline is to delete the app. If you are an actual developer, you're out of luck. Otherwise, click "Delete app" in the left sidebar.
For Yourself only:

Delete Facebook Account
They will ask for your password and stuff, and once you do that, for 14 days you must NOT log into your Facebook account until it will be terminatedStay on Google+ or what ever social networking site you enjoy most and never look back at the nightmare you just escaped from!
