  I want to leave WordPress entirely. I want to sever ALL connections between WordPress and me. I want to visit blogs which happen to be WordPress blogs without being asked for a *&$^%# WordPress log-in. I want to leave WordPress entirely. I want to sever ALL connections between WordPress and me.

  You must be logged in under the exact same username account that registered the blog to delete it. there are multiple warnings given that blog deletion is permanent. Lastly, a verification link is sent in an email and must be clicked to delete a blog. If clicking that link does not work then copy and paste it into your upper browser window and click. http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/

  Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made.

  All you were required to provide to register an account here was an email address that can be replaced at any time. Any personal information that you voluntarily posted can also be removed at any time.

  Although username accounts are not deleted, so you cannot be impersonated and have your reputation affected by anyone registering the same username in the future, there are steps you can take that amount to removing all personal information and result in leaving only a throwaway email address behind. http://en.support.wordpress.com/deleting-accounts/

  1. You can go to My Account->Edit Profile and remove all data except the account name and an email address. Create a throwaway email address and change the account email to that throwaway address. This only leaves the username behind.

  2. To unsubscribe from email sent to you from WordPress.com, go here and click on “Block all subscription emails from WordPress.com”:

  3. To ensure the account is locked up tightly, visit this site, generate a password of 15-20 characters, and change the account password to it:
