To be honest there isn't really anything to add. My original post answered those questions pretty clearly.
1. Did you embed it into a post or a page: A Page - A brand new page, dedicated only to the Forum. My screenshot was the actual result of the embedded code into the clean page.
2. The javascript code provided under Nabble's Embedding Options was embedded directly under the HTML tab of Bloggers' page creation tool. 

I actually tried the websites you offered, even before I submitted the ticket and they were of no help. Neither were the four other websites I used to try and resolve my concern to begin with :/

It shouldn't be a problem on Blogger's end per se because I used a code from another website that same night, in the HTML tab, in the same way - and it worked perfectly. 
I only have a beginners level experience with hard coding but it looks to me like the Nabble code is actually missing some pieces.

You add nothing in that reply. Perhaps I should have been more precise and directed you to the questions from "shamus mcquail" which appear relevant to me. Note that no one posted answers to them so they move no further towards a solution.

How did you embed it?  Did you embed it into a post or a page?  Did you copy the code to the compose tab, or the HTML tab?  It needs to be embedded into a new page, only for the forum.  When you create the new page, you have to copy the code into the HTML tab.  Let us know.
These questions mean little to me as I am not a blogger user, but they seem relevant.

You could try posting your responses to that topic, and it may be worth alerting Shamus by emailing him direct, in case he is no longer monitoring the topic. (Click on his user name. This will take you to a screen where you can direct him to your post.)

If embedding doesn't work for you, it is far more likely to be an issue with the site in which you are trying to embed the forum. That is why I normally guide people to the support service of the tool they are using to build their web site.

A quick Google reveals other possible sources of help:

http://www.bloggersentral.com/2009/12/adding-forum-to-blogspot.html

Have you tried the approaches suggested at either of those sites?

Whatever you do, report back. Otherwise we'll just get more frustrated Blogger users, going away before revealing the solution.
Just a Volunteer Nabble Helper - because the nice folk at Nabble have helped me!
