  I am new to this and changed my blog address a few times and now i want to try to use those blog addresses but it’s telling me thy’re already in use, but when I search them, it says the author has deleted this site. Is there a way for me to use those again?? it’s joeanne84 that I’d really like to use or just joeanne – I want to use them with .wordpress.com. I don’t have a blog yet, I wanted to start today…

  I’d like to know how to delete this question because it wasn’t meant to be published for all to see. I wanted to ask someone that works at WordPress.com – if someone knows how to delete these posts, let me know please. Thanks.

  The deleted blog URL will not become available again. I’m sorry but you cannot recover or register any deleted blog URL. Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made.

  You can register another .wordpress.com blog http://en.support.wordpress.com/register-a-blog/

  Then if you wish to you can register a domain via a domain mapping upgrade because it does not matter what the underlying .wordpress.com address is when you are domain mapping.
