    Did you have adsense running on it? Or a link to your website?

    I don't know much about the Blogger platform, as I use Wordpress, but is it possible that they consider empty blogs as being in violation of their terms of service? It seems reasonable to assume that blogs that are empty and "wasting space" for a considerable period of time are something that Blogger.com would want to purge.

    Complete guess there, but possible.

    Honestly, it seems like you might have gotten that message because people flagged your Blogger blog as spam. And what sucks is the fact that the "flag blog" button is right in between the "search blog" and "next blog" buttons. Hopefully you don't get screwed if people pressed "flag blog" by mistakes.

    I'm not convinced that someone would flag an empty blog as spam unless they're very bored and obnoxious. So, the jury is still out on this one it seems.

    Nothing wrong with blogger is actually great but you need to host on your own server.

    I heard the same problems and notice as yours, and it was because of wrong flagging.
