deleted MySQL

[Empire KickAss]

I was added more accounts and wasn't thinking right. I removed the SMF account part. With that the site is down. www.baysideves.com.

I checked the adminphp and it's definitely empty. So I contacted the hosting service and they can recover it, but an fee of $15USD around $28AUD. I'm like hell no.

I don't really want to spend money just to recover the topic and posts just so I can convert it to another forum then remove it again.

Is there another way to recover most of it or see the site without recovering the MySQL

no.

The contents of the site are all in the database. period.
The files just tell the system how to display the contents from the database.

Why do you not have your own backup?

(hint: next time, remember to always take frequent backups of your database)

I have Two backups. But they are on my desktop which doesn't work at the moment. Power supply ******ed up at a very bad moment.

I don't know what backups Are. All know now that I have backed up twos

well, you have 3 choices...

1- wait til your home PC is repaired and get he backups from there and attempt to resinstall
2- forget about it and live with the loss
3- pay your host for the restore... (and then go find another host... my host does not charge me for that sort of thing unless it becomes a frequent request)
