please delete old blogs
-
Hi, I am hoping you can help. All blogs I have had except for simplyshari.com are old blogs. Can you delete them please?
1. angeloftheleavesatnight.info/blog
2. blog.angeloftheleavesatnight.info
3. sphiorx.net/blog
4. bravuraartist.comThe last one I was formerly the webmaster for the former owner but he let the website lapse in 2008 and I’ve not been able to contact him or the new owners now. I do not own this website (bravuraartist.com) and I am not the webmaster for it.
I appreciate any help you can give me.
Thank you.

Hi there,
The good news is that you can now do this. See here please http://en.support.wordpress.com/disconnect-jetpack-sites/ -
I have been trying to use the disconnect and it is not working. I’m getting errors because 1, 2, and 3 are dead sites and 4 is not mine.
Thank you.

Thank you.

Hi Shari,
OK, you’re all set! I made sure that all four of the blogs which you mentioned are no longer attached to your Jetpack account. If you ever re-start one of them, all you need to do is reconnect your blog to your WordPress.com account.
Let me know if you need anything else.

Thankyou timethief as well for your intervention, it is much appreciated!

Those are not self hosted sites. They are wordpress.com blogs and you ought to be able to delete them yourself.All blogs are independent sites so what you do on or with one has no effects on any others. To delete a free hosted WordPress.COM blog you must be logged in under the exact same username account that registered the blog. To prevent accidental or inadvertent deletion of blogs, there are multiple warnings given that blog deletion is permanent and irreversible. 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.

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