It's a Lockout: No BIB Posting Allowed on Blogger

800_IMGP8849.jpg "Your blog is locked

"Blogger's spam-prevention robots have detected that your blog has characteristics of a spam blog. Since you're an actual person reading this, your blog is probably not a spam blog. Automated spam detection is inherently fuzzy, and we sincerely apologize for this false positive.

"You won't be able to publish posts to your blog until one of our humans reviews it and verifies that it is not a spam blog. Please fill out the form below to get a review. We'll take a look at your blog and unlock it in less than two business days.

"If we don't hear from you, though, we will remove your blog from Blog*Spot within a few weeks."

We decided to switch blog providers after receiving the above message from Blogger and being locked out of the site for more than a week. The old blog lives on, though Blogger hasn't yet let us back in to retrieve the archives.

I think you can transfer your blogger hosting across to your own provider, but you'll need access to your blog to do it.

Same thing happened to me. That was one of the reasons I moved to Wordpress.

Sorry to hear that but glad you found a new home - did you manage to recover the posts?
