When I try to remove older posts from my wall, I get either a loading box that runs forever, or i'm redirected to a blank profile page.  Anyone have a clue?

Does this issue occur when you attempt to remove newer posts? (Posts that have been on your wall no longer than a week). This sounds like a slow connection issue. I'm usually reliant of a WiFi connection. When the connection is ****, for lack of a better term, it will not load properly. So make sure you don't have any connection issues.

It could also be related to any AV programs attempting to block material that could be on the Facebook page itself. Especially if you're running Norton.

My last question is how old your wall posts are that you're trying to delete? I personally, have issues removing wall posts that exceed a week or two in duration.

It may not be your connection, and it could be just Facebook overall.

Thanks Nick.  Most of the posts I'm trying to remove are over a week old.   My connection seems to be good.  I've also noticed that game posts by friends  in general seem to be hit-or-miss on my home page.  Just a F/B issue I guess.

I wouldn't necessarily worry about having to remove older wall posts, unless you don't want anybody to see them for some reason. Most of my friends post something, and delete their post prior to their new one. I suppose to keep their activity feed from being cluttered. If you want to keep people from seeing what you're posting, you can change your privacy settings so nobody outside your friends list can see them. But there's no way to prevent people whom are already your friends, from seeing what you post. At least not to me knowledge. If you simply want to keep your feed clean and you're still having issues, it's best just to leave it be. Unfortunately.  

I too, have the same issue. Facebook's activity feed is questionable. I find it hard to understand that one of my friends can post something and it will show up fine. But once I refresh the page, it's pushed to the bottom by posts that over over a few hours old. It skips and jumps a lot, and annoys me. I suppose it is just a Facebook issue in itself.
