  Because I was fooling around with a theme, my whole site is going crazy… the best and quickest way to fix this is to start from scratch, but I can’t find the “delete site” or “clear site” button in my “Tools menu”. Can someone help me out please?!

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

  Hello!
  From what I understand you wish to delete your site. If this is correct you need to go to your blog’s dashboard and click on “Tools”—>’Delete Site” and select an option from the drop-down menu.

  Does that resolve your question?

  I don’t have that option in my Tools menu, the wordpress site is a script-installed one by my hosting provider

  It could be you may not have the privilege to delete the site.
  Could you check to see what user-role/privileges you have on the site?

  See here for a breakdown of user-roles/privileges:
