Well, it is looking like it was a problem that originated with the post. I contacted support and they restored the forum (Very quickly)The tech didnt say that they were to blame but they didnt say they werent either. I dont want to name the host, but I have to say that once I contacted them about it they took quick action. Also, it seems that the junk I mentioned that was in the dB earlier - that was probably spam comments that hadnt been deleted.
