Some old Facebook comments were posted about me when I was a minor. I was able to get related photos removed by reporting that I was a minor at the time, but Facebook has refused to remove the comments.

The comments are simply lists of student names. But, I have a unique name so these posts appear in search results when I search for myself.

I have reported and appealed the comments multiple times with no success. The account has also been inactive for about two years, and I’ve tried contacting the owner by email without a response.

Does anyone have advice on how to get these deleted, im at a dead end?

Hi,

I don’t think you can remove someone else’s comment. Otherwise people would be deleting each other’s comments if there are things said that they don’t like.

I think you should look at facebooks privacy policy. You have probably done so but only Facebook can resolve this. Otherwise you will have to wait for a long time. Older posts might get scrapped and removed over time.
