There is STILL a way to GET THE OLD FACEBOOK BACK! :D

This is a new method that WORKS faster than any other !!
DONT FREAK OUT WHEN YOU FIND SO MANY STEPS.
You will only need part of them. some people may need bit more. do all the steps. If you know what your doing do the ones you need. Some people skip steps or do them in a different order, It wont work with them.

Just follow these 6 steps

#1 Join this Group

#2 Invite all your friends

#3 Click the [SHARE +] button to the right (in the menu) ->

#4 When at Share (Post to profile), click the "Post" button

#5 Add this application to your profile http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=19772276310

#5.4 Add this page
http://www.new.facebook.com/pages/old-face-book/28193174822

#5.5 Click this link
http://apps.new.facebook.com/?fbnew_opt_out=1

and that's it !!!


If you are confused or need any help or got any questions Please ask at the discussion board at http://Boards.RyansDistrict.com and we will be more than happy to help you.

if you did step 5.5 and it didnt work please continue the following steps below
.

#6 Add this application:
http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=2345053339
It is facebook's own developer application. Noone but facebook has created this. It is SAFE.

#7 Use FireFox. If you dont' have it, dowload it here:
http://www.firefox.com
(This ONLY works with FireFox. FireFox is a browser much like Internet Explorer and one of the most used. I have now been told that this only works with FireFox 3.0 or above. Make sure you update to newest FireFox!)

#8 Download User Agent Switcher here:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/59
(This will allow you to make facebook think that you are using an old IE browser (version 5.5) on Windows 2000)

#9 Restart Firefox

#10 Download an update to User Agent Switcher here:
http://testingreflections.com/node/view/5125
This is the most complex part of this process, so I will take it step by step:
- Right Click on AgentStrings20070304.xml (16.51 KB)
- Choose "Save Link as"
- Click Save
- On the Firefox top menu, Click "Tools -> User Agent Switcher - > Options -> Options"
- Within Options click the "User Agents" tab on the left side
- Click on Import
- Choose the file that you downloaded
- Click "Open"
- You have now successfully installed and upgraded the User Agent Switcher

#11 Restart firefox

#12 On the Firefox top menu, Click: "Tools -> User Agent Switcher" and choose MSIE 5.5 (2000) from the list. You have to do this everytime you startup Firefox.

#13 Log in to Facebook like normal

#14 Click this link
http://apps.new.facebook.com/?fbnew_opt_out=1
(This will tell facebook that you want "out" of the new facebook)
--------- - - - - - ---------

TROUBLESHOOTING:
If you have gone through all these steps and still can't get it to work, check these steps. If you can answer yes to all of them, it will work!:

#1 Are you using firefox
#2 Have you added the facebook developer application found here:
http://www.new.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=2345053339

#3 Have you set the user agent switcher to MSIE 5.5 (2000)
#4 Have you clicked this link AFTER doing the above (not before):
http://apps.new.facebook.com/?fbnew_opt_out=1
