  Hello!
  Mi username is laurayustas. Few months ago I created 2 blogs: http://laurayustasblog.wordpress.com (the one than I’m using now), and http://laurayustas.wordpress.com (which was going to be my principal blog, but now it not because I mistaked and abandon it. Now I’m not the owner anymore, some of my information is still here and, moreover, I would love to use that URL instead of http://laurayustasblog.wordpress.com

  So, I ask you to eliminate permanently the blog, so my information will disappear and I’d be able to use the URL again. Another possibility is to transfer the blog to me again. Any of them would be perfect for me.

  Thank you so much,
  (email visible only to moderators and staff)

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

  Hi,
  My problem is that I accidentally TRANSFER my blog, but to no one, so no it doesn’t belong to anyone, I cannot use the url and I can’t delete the blog either. I wonder if wordpress could delete it for me. It shouldn’t be so difficult… it’s just a blog without owner!

  First things first DON’T DELETE ANYTHING OR HAVE THE STAFF DELETE YOUR BLOG – once a blog name is deleted it is gone forever

  http://laurayustas.wordpress.com/ is alive and well but does not seem to have any content in it – unless the WordPress.COM super Admin software is broken it seems odd that it would let anyone transfer a blog to nobody.

  Did you have a second account? That would have required entering a second email – many people do that by accident –

  I will flag this for the staff to help you – they can look at the transfer history of a blog and restore ownership if a blog has went wandering

  If’ve just tried what you suggest me, but no second account… I’ve tried my other email adress, but is not registered in wordpress.com.

  Ok, I’d not delete anything :)
  So, I hope they could restore ownership soon.

  Thank you so much
