Old Post
-
I wrote something years ago. Then, I put a copy of it in a post on (N.R.B.). I did not have a wordpress account when I wrote it. Later, I made a wordpress account to claim my post so I had the option to revise it or remove it. How do I claim writings on (N.R.B.)? Can I just request its removal somehow?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi,
What is N.R.B.? Why would obtaining a WordPress.com account affect your ability to claim, revise, or remove that post from wherever it is located?

Hi, (N.R.B.) is a blog on WordPress.com called Nothing Ridiculous Blogged. There is an option to post a comment on the blog without an account. The problem is if you post something without an account you cannot revise or remove it. Nor can you contact anyone. So I made a WordPress.com account to attempt to claim the post and revise/remove it. So far I cannot find anyway to claim the post revise/remove it. There is no contact information on the blog to contact its owner. I have tried having it removed still no luck. Thanks for you response.

https://thenrb.wordpress.com/ in the corner when you are signed in you have the option to report this content. That is the only thing I could find. I have to make a WordPress.com account to report the content to try and remove it because I could not find any other contact information. Thanks again,

Thanks for the additional information.

Having an account doesn’t change that predicament. WordPress.com ordinarily will not even get involved in a situation where someone would like to have a comment removed from a site on which they are not a user. They might do so in rare cases in which a security risk is posed. You may add a “modlook” tag to the sidebar of this topic if you’d like to ask a staff member about this possibility. If you add the tag, staff will respond here. However, I think they will merely suggest that you try to contact the site owner, or a site administrator, about your concern. WordPress.com will not provide any contact information that isn’t already provided by the site owner or administrator(s) — for example contact info that may be present on the site, on the Gravatar profile page of its authors (there is none in this case), etc.
There is no contact information on the blog to contact its owner.
WordPress.com site administrators are under no obligation to include contact information on a WordPress.com site. In addition to this support forum you may use the Contact Us form, https://wordpress.com/help/contact, to send an email message to WordPress.com.
I have to make a WordPress.com account to report the content to try and remove it because I could not find any other contact information.
Reporting the site at the link that you refer to (“Report this content”) will, I think, not be productive unless there is a security risk or a WordPress.com TOS violation involved.
