Hi, I would like to have the cristian.wordpress.org blog since it haven’t been used since 2005 (the last post) and have been suspended now. I want to start blogging but I really need a nicer blog address. Thanks a lot.

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

Hi cristiandn,

Here’s the support document detailing the topic of Recycling Blog Addresses:

cristian.wordpress.com is no longer available.

This blog has been archived or suspended for a violation of our Terms of Service.
For more information and to contact us please read this support document.

You would need to find the original blog owner – get them to do battle with the Terms of Service group to get the blog name un-suspended – – then they would need to give you the blog name

As noted above blog names are never recycled – so a new name is probably the easiest – or you could get a custom domain name and map it to a blog here and the base blog name would be covered up

I wonder then … how can I contact a WordPress username, if I only know his username?

Put on your detective hat – WordPress.COM will not give you contact info or help you in any way for privacy reasons

Play around with different names, nicknames, initials and such is the easiest – that’s what I did for a couple of my blogs
