In short... one of the admin passwords was cracked and they messed with our basic board configuration settings. Current Affairs was also deleted. I'm working on getting the backups for this.
We are beefing up the security to help prevent this type of brute-force hack-job.

Start over. It won't take but a couple days to fill it back up with more liberal bullshit.

You could always open a temporary forum while you attempt to salvage the old one.

No reason to really care in my opinion.
Just unlock it and let it be.

The loss of Current Affairs is old news.
