Always nice to come back to your board in complete and utter chaos. ;D "AYAAARGH WE ALL GONNA DIE SKY IS FALLING OHEMGEE ABANDON SHIP!!"
Always seems to happen the day after I reassure people that it won't be much longer... then I get stalled cleaning up the mess and fall-out, then people complain why it's taking so long...
I assume ezBoard will be restoring from a previous backup. Their notice talks about people having lost huge amounts of topics, and even their paid funds and donations, so once they figure out what the problem is, the topics will probably be restored.
But many people are doing the "I think I will stay here instead.
" thing over at the other board, and I'm not really in the mood for splintering, so looks like I've got to rush a board reinstall because you guys keep pushing. Just know this: It won't be spectacular looking, it might be missing some of the features, and the person who has my copy of the MB backup is overseas until the 7th, and I don't know where she put it, and I doubt she'd remember over the phone.
So that means we either give up on the old topics and I start a brand new DB, or we lose the topics we make on the new board in a week or so.
Can you see why I wanted to wait? (And Sab, you've already weighed in on old topics, thank you.)

At this point, you should probably just start from a fresh DB. It's been long enough to where most of the topics we posted about there have been covered here or forgotten completely, so unless people are attached to some of the posts they have there (I know I'm not), I say toss it.
