Can no longer access an Old blog I setup, please delete!!

    Hi

    Years ago I setup a blog stawbe.wordpress.com that I never even ended up using. I did it on an email address I can’t even remember the user name of let alone the password.
    I now have a design business called Stawbe and would like to use that domain. Since it was my own domain and nothing’s ever been done on it, could you please link it to my current email address (email visible only to moderators and staff) or send me the login info or delete it so I can reuse the user name (hoping no one snatches it before I can).
    At the moment stawbe.wordpress.com is a dead account that I have no possible way to access.

    Awaiting your response
    Thanks
    Bron

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

    I flagged this for staff attention, but you’re going to have to give them convincing proof you set up that old blog before they’ll give it to you.

    Thank you, and I understand. Here’s the proof I can offer:

    I believe I am the only person in the world that ever uses the user name ‘stawbe’. It’s why I use it for almost everything. If you type ‘stawbe’ into google search the entire first page is me:

    stawbe.deviantart.com/ – my art blog
    twitter.com/stawbe – hardly use twitter but that’s my account
    http://www.facebook.com/pages/Stawbe-Design/329721167059041 – my fb page attached to my profile which is http://www.facebook.com/bronwyn.flanigan
    http://www.youtube.com/user/stawbe – my youtube account, I don’t load vids but I use for commenting and following
    slaystationguild.wowstead.com/wow/…/17470701-stawbe – my current world of warcraft guild
    pinterest.com/stawbe/ – my pinterest account where you can see work that relates back to fb and deviantart in my board ‘by my own hands’
    http://www.wowprogress.com/character/eu/twisting-nether/Stawbe – my world of warcraft main character

    My real name is Bronwyn Flanigan and I have login access to all of the above accounts. I also have the email addresses ‘[redacted]’ to login into my wordpress account (this one I’m sending from) and ‘[redacted] for my fb account.

    I can’t remember what email I setup the ‘stawbe.wordpress.com’ blog from but it could’ve been a webmail email address, one that I no longer remember or probably doesn’t even exist any more.

    I setup that blog in 2nd year varsity – 2008 with the intention to setup a design portfolio of my work, but I never picked it up and then forgot about the login info so dropped it till I started up a freelance business now called Stawbe Design.

    I’m not sure what else I can give as ‘proof’. Considering that I own that name on pretty much every forum and it’s my google account, and considering with that that stawbe.wordpress.com has been inactive for over 4 years now, could you please help me out in any of the above mentioned ways.

    Would appreciate it sincerely
    Bron

    Don’t post your email in a public forum; spammers will grab it. Since this is already flagged, I expect staff or moderators will remove private details. Staff will reply in this thread and probably email you, as they can see what email you used to make these posts.

    Thanks for the advice, I’m less concerned with spammers and more concerned with solving the problem at hand. But I will take that into consideration. Thank you.

    I have several other subscriptions to sites, accounts etc with the username stawbe that I can share with them in response to any queries of proof.

    Thanks for flagging.
