How to remove yourself as a “Fan” on your Facebook profile
I’m posting this tip because it took me forever to figure out how to remove myself from being a “Fan” of something or other on Facebook.
Seems that it is really easy to become a fan of something, but when you decide that you no longer want to be a fan, it’s not easy to find out how to become an “un-fan,” or an “ex-fan.”
This is because the link is hidden away at the bottom of the page that you have previously fanned. That is, the link to “remove me” is not grouped with the other links on the page. Instead, it is hidden away at the bottom of the page that you previously became a fan of.
I couldn’t find out how to do it on Facebook, even after looking for over 10 minutes. Fortunately, I found this page from Yahoo Answers where someone reveals the technique.
The solution: Go to the page that you are a fan of then go to the bottom and press ‘Remove me from fans’ and that should do it! Good Luck!
Easy once you know how to do it, eh?

THANK YOU!!
I clicked on “become a fan” by mistake when I meant to just check from my newfeed which of my friends had joined a particularly stupid group. Then I couldn’t see any way to get out of it!! Really bad layout on the part of FB, but maybe that was their intention.
In any case, thank you so much for this small, but extremely useful tip!

Became a fan of something when I meant to click the “x of your friends are fans” link.

In the new layout of FB I can’t find the “Remove blah blah”. But I was able to “unFan” myself by clicking “Unlike” – located at the bottom left hand side of the screen.

same!!! it sux :(

Thanks for the tip, Maikeru. I saw “Unlike” and clicked it. Their info disappeared. I stopped playing some of the FB games and don’t care to see any updates they may have.
