Reacquire my blog name
-
I have a blog at wordpress.com which is called the orthodox.wordpress.com however I registered another blog using my pseudonym QM Sidd as qmsidd.wordpress.com however due to some problems I deleted that blog thinking I would build it again when I get a chance. However, now that I try to create a blog using that name it says that the authors has deleted that site. I am the author of that site who deleted it so how can I get it back again now ? I need that back as its important for me given that it is based on my pseudonym. I cannot use other options with it I simply need it back.
How to proceed… please help
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Howdy qmsidd!
There is no way you can get the URL back, it can be available after 2 years, and it’s for security reasons, you can read about it more here
https://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/You will have to try using other options to create new URL or Custom domain. Hope this helps, let us know for any further questions..!

I believe it has been two years now more or less… isn’t there any way that my wait be over.. ! I deleted the address almost two years ago.
-
Hi again!
So as there is a Username with the domain, it won’t be possible for it to be available again..!
here is the quote from the support document
Sites already deleted by their authors two or more years ago may become available again, if they present no username or other technical conflicts.
So its not possible for it to be available again. You will have to try other Custom domains..! -
But it contains my own username. The username belongs to me and so I wanted to get the blog url to match it. No hope in this case as well ? ??

A staff member was able to acquire a deleted blog address for someone. I just it here: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/reclaiming-a-deleted-blog-address?replies=14
So can someone from the staff not help me with my blog address please? I have a feeling it is possible.
I am the legit owner of the blog name and deleted it accidentally about two years ago.
current blog: the orthodox.wordpress.com
Deleted (required) blog: qmsidd.wordpress.comusername: qmsidd
Now some people say blogs having a username cant be done even though its my username and my blog address I need … I am prepared to change my username but I need that address back.
Any help would be really great !

I just checked. In fact I deleted the blog 3 years ago. Someone should be able to get it back for me please…
Here is the proof. I posted help with it three years ago and then I have waited all this time to get it back. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/recovering-my-site?replies=7

Hello~!!
Have you tried re-registering QMSidd? There are instructions here: Recycling Blog Address
In the 2nd paragraph there is a link to register the blog name, when I tested it qmsidd was available. You should be able to claim it.
Hope this helps :)

I went to the link just now. It is not showing up. It does show up in the premium option however it does not show up as qmsidd.wordpress.com and suggests me to use qmsiddblog.wordpress.com instead.
-
That is strange, I tried again and the first option it gave me was a free wordpress.com domain, the second option with the green box was for a paid custom domain. Is it giving you any free options at all?
-
Yes I rechecked again. It only shows one free option and when I write in the box qmsidd it automatically suggests that I use qmsiddblog and does not allow me to use qmsidd.wordpress.com :(
