My opinion is that you can delete all the topics posted more then a week ago or so. This way you can get more tidiness into the forum.

Why delete any posts?

Me, and many other people, use the "search" function to browse the database before asking. The whole database is very util.

I think that maybe the hacker simply detached the threads from the subforums... or did that rat *actually* delete the data?

OK, when you can do it this way, I agree with you. Then there's no need to delete any post.

hmmm...this is sad news.
Me (and my lack of knowledge) didn't think that anyone with "normal" skills would be able to hack a site like this. But that just shows how little I know about stuff like that.

Anyway, WE stand behind you Wildcard. In the past,now and in the future.

May God cast a fireball on the one(s) that did this...

I was stupid not to have backups but I'm going to put in a cronjob to backup the database of posts weekly now automatically. The last backup I had was from when we changed over from phpBB 1 to phpBB 2, quite a while ago. That was only 1.4 megs as opposed to the 13 megs that the database was before it was deleted by the idiots yesterday.
