Deleted blog?
-
Hi. I have a wordpress blog that is set up under http://thegroundiblogon.wordpress.com but when I go to view the blog it says that the blog doesn’t exist anymore, the authors have deleted the site. I know it’s been a while but does the blog get deleted if it’s not used? If so, how can I restart it with the same name?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

No, the blog and the URL are gone forever…
Addresses (URLs) for blogs that have been deleted by the owner will remain deleted. We cannot, under any circumstances, allow someone to take over the address of a blog that was owned and deleted by its original/previous owner. Please do not submit support requests asking us to do this.
Fortunately, there is an infinite supply of unused blog addresses, so our policy should not limit your address selection. Note that if you add a custom domain for use with your blog, the original ‘wordpress.com’ domain/URL is never visible to your readers for as long as the custom domain is used on your blog.

Hi there,
I am not aware that a blog would be automatically removed.
Someone had to delete it. -

@mrlubomir: Who said that? My answer is correct.

Hi @galois, I did not summit a request asking to take over the address of a blog originally owned by someone else. If you had read my question you would understand that the blog was originally mine and I was hoping to start using it again. I wasn’t aware that I had deleted it, I was just hoping to resurrect it.

thegroundiblogon.wordpress.com is no longer available.
The authors have deleted this site.Allow me to clarify. Recovering or registering any deleted blog URL is not possible. Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made. http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/
To prevent accidental or inadvertent deletion of blogs, there are multiple warnings given that blog deletion is permanent and irreversible. Lastly, a verification link is sent in an email and it must be clicked to delete a blog. If clicking that link does not work then copy and paste it into your upper browser window and click. Once the verification link for deletion is clicked the blog URL is forever gone, gone, gone.

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.

Thanks @timethief, that actually does help and answers my question. I don’t recall deleting the blog but it must have been a while ago. I’ll try your suggestions. Thanks again :D
