Can't Create A New Blog
-
May 23, 2016. Something is going on. I have been trying for several days to start a new blog and WordPress.com won’t let me get past step 2 of 4. I have an old deleted blog “iseekhistruth.wordpress.com” that I would be happy to go back to using, but WordPress.com won’t undelete even though I’ve been a customer for ten years.

Unfortunately, you deleted the site http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/ rather than deleting the content in the site http://en.support.wordpress.com/empty-site/
Deleting a blog URL is not easily done and multiple warnings that deletion is intended to be permanent and non-reversible are given all along the way.
Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and the only exceptions are made are for URLs that were deleted 2 or more years ago. http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/
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.

Hi Ron, you will need to pick a new address. Do not delete it this time. If you feel like making the site private you can do that here:
https://wordpress.com/settings
If you delete the new site, the content and address will be gone. Thanks!
