If your past conversations are important to you, then you should make a point of archiving them. Regardless of the platform.

Personally, I'm hoping FaceBook does the same thing to the account I can no longer remember the password to.

Yep, this is why I always back up my posts and any other important posts or anything else important.

I've never been able to get used to the fact that redditors treat their accounts like some kind of second persona.
