Forum Topic Memory

Slight Background so that you may understand where I am coming from:
I am the Administrator of 2 forum RP sites, which I shall not put the links up to unless told I can due to Advertising Laws, but here's the thing: I joined after the sites were made, meaning I didn't get Information only a Founder would have. I would be cool with this, except that on another site that I joined and became a membr of, someone came on and wiped three quarters of the posts, and they (The Admins) had to pull a recovery. what I want to know is the Following: in event of this Happening to Either of my sites, How do you make a recovery? I'm not picky on who answers if you at least have some kind of answer. I would like to know this kind of thing to prepare for the worst.

Thanks. it doesn't answer all my questions, though. what if you're an Admin needing to do that, but you're not the founder?

In order to use that link?

You need to be the Founder. You'll need to know the Email & passwords use when the forums was created. If you're not the founder, you can talk to your founder about it.
