Heard GuitarGearForum.com recently went down (I never hung out there).

Here is the admin's explanation of what transpired:

Here is the actual translation:

This n00b attempt to update completely trashed the database and we were forced to do a fresh phpBB install. To add insult to injury, we were too lazy and too ignorant to make a backup of everything before we hit the big shiny red "UPDATE" button. We will now do the slow, long process of salvaging what we can from the old database to the new one, but don't hold your breath because everything's fucked now, so we'll pretend to salvage while you start filling up the fresh new forum with new posts.,. after a few months, you won't even miss the old posts. And to answer your question: No, we don't know what we're doing. Thank you for your patience.
