It's because your SQL database still remained, while it was your files that got deleted.
So you're saying I can always re-upload the database and bring my forum to most recent?

I'm saying that your SQL, contains all your post/threads and board information on your IPB forum. Though if you are in dire need to upload a more recent backup of your SQL, then that's your choice, I don't want to make you do something, which can potentially cause harm; if you don't know how to do it. Though I was just generally answering you why you would have still have the most recent posts. Sorry if I've caused any confusion, though you do have a very nice website.
Link to what, my site?

I just don't get how this can be up and running but there's no directories listed and no files found.
Maybe Edwin is making progress.
I get this when i visted that link:

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

And I thought FOOTBALL (US or Canadian style). Same message here too, 403. Hope that is sorted really soon now. And sorry to hear of your ongoing problem... sad story that.
h2h, I am not affected by this problem. I have my own dedicated server. I WAS affected by the DC move early in November, but this situation does not involve me. I just feel your pain here .. this kind of thing is hard on everybody.
If you are looking for webhosting, I would suggest you look around the offers forum, Or contact Eclouds, Or Galaxy-Solutions on this forum if you are looking for VPS/Dedicated. I wouldn't personally take hosting from a Jewlzk customer at the moment, Due to all of these problems

I appreciate it. A question though: Let's say I get the board up and running but the "older" backup they're using to restore my files is from a month or two ago. Couldn't I just download my current SQL DB and upload that to bring it to current?
