  So, I’ve tried activating my wordpress quite a few times. I get sent the e-mail, click activate, get told I’m good, then click on another page and get told to activate…. again.
  I think my account is connected to gravitation or whatever the avatar site is called and I can’t activate there either (I don’t get sent an e-mail).

  Should I get rid of my account completely and start over?

  Every wordpress.COM account https://en.forums.wordpress.com/profile/simply0strange is also a Gravatar account. http://en.gravatar.com/simply0strange

  There is a single email address that can be used on only one username account and not on any others, regardless of how many blogs are registered under that username account. The blog’s owner can change the relevant email address on their accounts page at https://wordpress.com/me/account

  *If and when you change it an activation email will be sent to the email address entered there.

  For Issues Changing your Email Address see https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-address/#issues-changing-your-email-address

  If you are having trouble receiving the email check your email client spam filter and if you use a Gmail or Google Apps account please see here https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-notifications/gmail-issues/

  Thanks I added the tag.

  I’m just trying to activate my account for the first time. Because I can’t properly activate it I can’t actually publish my blog only draft.
