  Hello everyone,
  So, I’ve been busy setting up a project under the name sexbastian, and I wanted to make a wordpress under that name, but it says it’s already taken. So I went to the site, but that site has been deleted?! Is there any way that I can still use it?
  I really hope so,
  Grts Benjamin

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

  Username accounts are not deleted so we cannot be impersonated http://en.support.wordpress.com/deleting-accounts/

  You can register another blog with a similar name. http://en.support.wordpress.com/register-a-blog/

  Or you can register a domain via a domain mapping upgrade and it will not matter what the underlying .wordpress.com address is.
