Can someone delete my blog without my consent?

See here please:
Administrator
An administrator has full and complete ownership of a blog, and can do absolutely everything. This person has complete power over posts/pages, comments, settings, theme choice, import, users – the whole shebang. Nothing is off-limits, including deleting the entire blog.

Only one administrator per blog is recommended! http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator

1. If you can log-in go here > Users > All Users and delete any user that does not belong there.

I have now reinstated the page from the Pages list to the Menu and onto the site. I do though still suspect someone has been onto my site because the same page was missing when I looked at the site from another PC in my office. The page in question was receiving a lot of interest and I wonder if someone was feeling threatened by this particular coach's decision to teach in Kingston. A few people round here make their living from teaching and this new club, the BJJ Lifestyle Team, could potentially take people away from other clubs.

A page under 'coaches' has completely disappeared - there used to be a page for 'Lyubo Kumbarov', but it's gone. I have checked the Menu and indeed the page no longer exists under Leo Negao and Diccon Lynes - which is where it used to be.

Is this a technical problem or do you think someone has actually been onto my site and removed the page. I have changed my password.

I would be grateful for any help you can give me - I am concerned.

Thanks.

If you are missing content, you can also check your page revisions to see if you accidentally deleted something. Here's more information on how you can review and restore a past revision: http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/page-revisions/

Recently, I noticed that all my articles from the page "zydzi i goje" had been deleted. Please, look at full addresses: forumemjot.wordpress.com/zydzi i goje/ - after I wrote my current content and I clicked the button actualisation everything just gone.

Please, explain me why it happened. Is this fault of wordpress or something else ?
Additionaly, whatever I am doing with and I am writing on the pages does not work – clicking the buttons writing down, statistics, changing colors. When I change the pages to next ones screen is not reacting correctly. I have difficulties when I writing something – most of the buttons just does not answering.Today, I checked this page and I discovered that everything is lost or deleted. It is very important for me to know I have this problem. A lot of my work just dissapeared from th page as I said above. So, I need your explanation and please, try to recover content of the pages.
I feel like somebody is hacking my page doing whatever he/she wants. I feel like somebody has an access to my blog. Please, help me out.
Best regards,
Małgorzata Jasińska
