  The stopcarp.org site was recently taken down but it still says the domain is registered so I can’t buy that domain name. How can I fix this?

  WP.com: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hello

  I can see the domain stopcarp.org you are referring to is registered with Godaddy.

  These are technical support forums for users of free websites hosted by WordPress.com. WordPress.com is a service that hosts WordPress sites, powered by Automattic. WordPress.org is a community where people work on open-source WordPress software. It’s also where that software can be downloaded to be run on your own web server. You can read more about these differences at
