  My account, folkvangr.wordpress.com is apparently deleted. I did not delete it. And in fact another user was asking to have it on this forum and claims it was deleted two to three weeks ago, which is nonsense as I’ve posted with it as recently as last week.

  This is an example of a username account https://en.forums.wordpress.com/profile/alfarheim

  This username account has not been registered and does not exist https://en.forums.wordpress.com/profile/folkvangr

  This is a deleted blog URL:

  https://folkvangr.wordpress.com is no longer available. The authors have deleted this site.

  You cannot register any deleted blog URL. Deleting any .wordpress.com blog URL is not easily done and what you ask to do is not possible. One has to ignore at least three warnings stating that deletion is permanent and irreversible and then click a verification link in an email to delete a blog. That’s because deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made. http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/

  This is another blog URL and it has not been deleted.
  https://folkvangrsessrumnir.wordpress.com/
  This is the login link for it https://folkvangrsessrumnir.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  Is https://folkvangrsessrumnir.wordpress.com the blog you are asking about?

  Every WordPress.COM blog has a sole owner. It is the person with the WordPress.COM username account who registered the blog under that username account and a single associated email address, and who is the original Admin of the blogs registered under that username account.

  You have to be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard.

  Clicking this link should display all blogs registered under the same username, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden

  If you do not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then
  follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibility
