    Hi, I have been unsuccessful in trying to contact the author of a certain blog that doesn’t seem to have been active for two years. There’s a post that mentions my real name on it and I’d like for it to be deleted. I’d ask him if he could do so but he is nowhere to be found.

    So I am wondering, what do moderators usually do with blogs that have not been active for two years?

    I do apologize in advance if I am asking a question that goes against any terms or conditions as that is never my intention.

    Thanks and all the best.

    Nothing! Moderators are volunteers and have no access to anybody’s server or private info.

    I see, so is there any group of users on here I can contact in regards to this or no?

    WordPress is free software and this free, volunteer-staffed forum is the only support resource available via wordpress.org.

    WordPress.org does not providing hosting for sites, it provides the software for other people to use their own sites on their own hosts. WordPress’s philosophy and bill of rights permit people to use WordPress software for any reason they want, without any enforcement over legality or illegality. We leave that up to the webhosts. In cases of theft, abuse, harassment, or other such behavior, your best recourse is to contact their web host directly. You can use WHOIS to determine where they’re hosted, as well as resources like http://www.whoishostingthis.com to find relevant information.
