  Hi I’d like to empty my site of all content, and it seems I’m supposed to contact someone (Happiness Engineer), but all of the links just loop around on themselves so that I never actually am able to contact anyone. Could someone help?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,
  I see that you have a lot of content to be deleted and I have tagged this thread for Staff. They can can empty the whole blog for you and that will remove all data including posts, pages, tags, categories, comments, and uploaded files. Once deleted, the data cannot be recovered.

  If you are sure you want Staff to proceed, then post again to this thread to:

  (1) confirm the URL of the blog you want Staff to empty;
  (2) confirm that you know content deletion is irreversible.

  IMPORTANT NOTE: Deleting blog content does not remove it from the SERPs (search engine page results). Google and Bing only clear their caches of deleted indexed content that produces a 404 (page not found) every 3 – 6 months.

  I would like to empty my site of all of its content but keep the site name, and assume this is the avenue with which to do it.

  I confirm that smoriak.wordpress.com is the URL of the blog I want the Staff to empty.

  I also confirm that deletion is irreversible.

  Thank you for your help.

  Is that downloadable, or do I have to go to a brick and mortar store to pick that up? ;)
