When the script detects that someone you used to be friends with is no longer one of your friends, a message will appear informing you about who it was and giving a link to their profile page.
The script checks by default once per hour when on Facebook, but this time can be increased through "Tools > Greasemonkey > User script commands... > Set time interval to check for removed friends...".
Brief explanation of how the Script works...
Any time a page is loaded on Facebook, the script will run and it will follow the following basic algorithm;
- If the script has checked your friends in the past <<insert number here>> hours, do nothing.
- Otherwise, load a page on Facebook in the background with a list of all of your friends.
- Go through each of these friends and add them to a list.
- Compare this list with the list saved the last time the script checked your friends.
- If someone was on the list before who isn't now, post the box informing the user.
- Save the new list of friends over the old one.
- Save the current time as the last checked time.
If you have any comments on this then please create a discussion about it.
Please don't create one complaining about it not working though if immediately after installing it nothing happens.

Update Log
- 7-Jan-2009:
- Initial release.
- (later in the day...) Ironed out a few bugs.
- 23-March-2009: Old friends now stays until a button is clicked to hide this. This means the page can be refreshed and the notification will still remain.
- 21 July 2009: Finally fixed for Facebook changes.
- 24 July 2009: Changed so that it should no longer appear in the error console.
- 25 July 2009: Fixed to work for people with vanity URLs.
- 20 August 2009: Small fix to stop errors appearing in the console. Shouldn't change any functionality.
- 29 August 2009: Fixed to work for people with >400 friends. Hopefully. Many, many thanks to bengliang.
- 4-September-2009: Fixed to work better if removed friends have vanity urls.
- 12-October-2009:
- Fixed to be more reliable for getting friend's names once they've removed you. Massive thanks to Troy Thompson for the typeahead search link.
- Added auto-update.
- 25-October-2009: I found out the script doesn't run for some users, so updated to (hopefully) be more reliable.
- 2-November-2009: Fixed to work more reliably, more quickly after a friend removes you.
- 5-November-2009: Fixed for recent Facebook change that broke the script.
