    You can try contacting formspring, but once on the net its almost impossible to get off.

    Then its her page that's indexed. I would stop worrying so much. There is not much at all you can do. The page has been indexed and likely cached. Live with it and take a lesson from it.
    What part of seeing that page will make your parents so mad?

    You have learned a good lesson, and honestly if there is something there, parents, or even in 10 years a boss may see, don't post it.

    Things stay on the internet often for ever, there are sites like "wayback" and others that at times takes a snap shot or copy of web pages and saves them, with no way to delete ever.

    I have pages out there of long closed and erased web sites that will be able to be found forever.

    Don't forget, you are on here too if that is your real name. It WILL come up in a Google search.

    Like I tell my daughter... don't EVER post anything on the internet that you don't want the whole world to see. There is pretty much nothing you can do to change it once it's there.

    To everyone,
    Luckily it isn't that bad. It just says my name... and I didn't actually say anything "bad" so it's not the worst case... my parents just don't want me to be on the internet :/ and I really understand why now.. I'm emailing the webmsater now.. do you think they can take it off?

    Most likely no the webmaster will not do anything. Sorry, but they will just not even blink, ignore your request since there is no reason to

    Audreylove is wrong. You are not on LinkedIn.

    You'll have to wait for the webmaster's answer.
