I didnt realize it would not be released, trapped forever in limbo OR that I could use it outside of the old domain if I just kept it.

so, yes, WP still has it. if I understand correctly its still associated with my email address, so I could prove it had been or is still mine, even though deleted. and technically, WP could reactivate it even though TOS states their policy is not to, in general, reactivate.

I think that you should be able to reactivate the WP url that you deleted. and yes, I know all the content is gone. well I deleted all the content before I deleted the WP from the domain I used to have. I wrongly thought that the WP url would be trapped by the old domain and if and when someone else purchases that domain I did not want them to have my WP url too.

so, what can I do? since it is possible, to reactivate a deleted blog url, and my email address should still be associated with it, how do you get WP to have heart and do it? honestly it seems odd to me that one can not do this. Even facebook lets you reactivate a deleted account page. So, comeon WP, its 2013.

Id like my http://divadesigns.wordpress.com/ back please. Though, oops, lord I hope I didnt use the old domains email address for it. Pretty sure not. but I have no way of checking now. :-(
