  How did I know this was Club Penguin.

  This happens when you give admin privileges out; you are exposing your blog to all the risks that person is exposed to. Some people have really easy passwords to guess, and when they get hacked, this happens. Protect yourself by not giving admin privileges out. If you want someone to write on your blog, make them a contributor instead. Then they can’t boot you out of your own blog.

  Anyway, staff will have to get involved to fix this, but the Support office is closed right now. You may have to wait till tomorrow and then you can contact them directly from the Support button on your dashboard.

  By the way, you’re not locked out of http://www.bluesoulxo.wordpress.com/ obviously, or you couldn’t have posted here under that user ID; the name is a link to the blog.

  These kind of issues have to be dealt with by staff as rain mentions. In the morning, give a “detailed” description to:
