To ask u fb gurus to confirm something for me

[cocoface]

I cant see someone anymore as fb friends but on fb messenger their photograph is still showing beside. Is their account deactivated? -

Or have they blocked me. ?

They've deactivated, you could message them and they'd receive it if they still have their messenger app downloaded.

Thanks Nova. Im a funce at fb. Can i pm u with a question?

You can, not sure I'll know the answer but can try!

Ive sent a message and it is showing sent - not delivered as it normally would. Its so weird. When i click on their photo in messenger it offers me voice or video call as options. Anyone?

Sounds like theyve deactivated their account

Hope so first - we parted ways amicably i thought so no idea why they would do this tbh. Will they get my message when the reactivate does anyohe know?

The best way to see if someone has blocked you is to go and try to block them. When you search for them on the list and they come up but their photo is greyed out and you can't click on their profile it means they've blocked you.
If they're not there they have deactivated their account.

You cant see people who have blocked u in searches

Im sure its fine. Why don't you text

comps i can only see this persons photograph now on messenger not their profile in fb itself - when i am in the conversation and when i hit the 'i' button it offers me a block option. - ive sent a message which is just showing as sent? - not delivered as it normally would be

You can't see their profile if you search in the normal way but if you go to privacy settings there is an option to search for people and then block them.
Privacy shortcuts - how do I stop some from bothering me - type their name in the box
Their photo will show on messenger if they've deactivated but they won't get the message unless they reactivate.

If you install fb purity on a desktop it keeps tabs on people who fall off your friends list. It can't tell why though, for instance deactivation or defriending, but does tell you it's happened.
