  Hi! Deleting your blog is easy –

  Delete Blog

  However, it’s not currently possible to delete your WordPress.com account –

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/deleting-accounts/

  Instead, you can just leave it inactive and opt out of all email subscriptions so WordPress.com doesn’t email you anything.

  However, if you detail why you’re unhappy with your WordPress.com blog, we’re pretty sure that we can help. So do let us know if there’s anything we can do for you! :)

  I’m not clear on what you mean by “we” because you are a Volunteer and not a Staff member. I think Volunteers ought to avoid making statements that may lead other bloggers to assume they are Staff when they are not. Those who need to contact Staff directly to dicuss such matter can use:
  support@wordpress.com

  Oh, I never meant to insinuate that I was staff! By “we” I just meant you, me and other volunteers here. :)

  I’m sorry if there was any mixup! As timethief has pointed out above, you can always contact staff directly if you need to. :)

  Okay then. Gotcha. It’s semantics. I was thinking:
  Is this another Staff wannbe?
  Is this a Staff member flying under the radar?
  Or what?
  lol :D
