That sounds like a really really slack host and definitely not worth the few $$$ you might have saved by going with them. Next time make sure you find a host you can trust ;)
It wasn't a professional host. It was some guy selling very cheap hosting on Hackforums. -_-
I didn't sign a contract or anything of the sort.. probably just a general ToS.
It was only $1.50 split two ways, so .75 cents.. I'm more bummed about the data loss.

The domain company is irrelevant, but we got it from dynadot.
The host was 1337hosting (Snazzy's hosting on HF).

Start from scratch again. We have a very, very good niche. There is no other forum like ours.
I'm going to contact my partner today about starting it up again.
