Another Facebook rumor (false, of course):
This is from facebook... There are many complaints that facebook has become unacceptably slow... The report shows that facebook has a number of inactive members... They want us to repost this message to see who are active and who are not... If you dont repost this message within 2 weeks you will be removed in order to get more space... Post this on your wall to show you are active in facebook.
Though it's replicating furiously as we speak (the text above has been reposted dozens of times just today), the Facebook version of this rumor is actually several years old, dating back to 2007. Earlier variants claiming Microsoft Hotmail accounts would be "deleted" if members failed to forward a chain email first appeared in 1999.
