Default Re: Anyone ever have their Google account disabled?

Nope. Went to my blog and found what anyone visiting my blog would see:

Blog has been removed

Sorry, the blog at sketchysituation.blogspot.com has been removed. This address is not available for new blogs.

Did you expect to see your blog here? See: 'I can't find my blog on the Web, where is it?'
So went to write an email through gmail and I get this:

Account has been disabled

If you've been redirected to this page from the sign-in page, it means that access to your Google Account has been disabled.

In most cases, accounts are disabled if we believe you have violated either the Google Terms of Service , product-specific Terms of Service (available on the product page), or product-specific policies. Your account has not been deleted, your data is still intact, and it might be possible to regain access to your account.
Why Google disables accounts

Google wants to ensure that everyone has a chance to safely and securely connect and communicate. To help preserve this environment, Google reserves the right to:

Suspend a Google Account from using a particular product or the entire Google Accounts system if there is a violation of the Google Terms of Service , product-specific Terms of Service (available on the product page), or product-specific policies.
Terminate your account at any time, for any reason, with or without notice.

Next steps for disabled accounts

Please start by reviewing the relevant Terms of Service. Then, if you think your account should not have been disabled, please contact us.
Would be nice if I got a warning or they gave some reason, any reason, why they did this. Wrote to them and linked to my deviantart page showing that's pretty much what was on my blog. PG-13 level stuff at the very most. Will see if anything happens. Saw one guy got his account back after about 20 hours with no explanation as to why they disabled it in the first place. Might lose my blog entirely though if my account does get returned, which really sucks.

Good lesson not to keep all your eggs in one basket. Already gave up my YouTube account when they starting forcing them to be linked to your Google account.
