I am not entirely sure if that is indeed the case, but it would appear a forum of mine somehow got deleted. It wasn't an active one - it was once used for Role Playing, and since then I was testing out designs/codes in it. But now when I type in the link and hit enter, I am brought to an entirely different site, with a different name and all that jazz.
I am the founder administrator, I did not want to delete my forum and did not do it by mistake. It might be due to changes in the platform? (it was on a roleplaylife.net domain, particularly: http://parallelreality.roleplaylife.net )
I honestly have no idea what's happened. Can anyone shed some light?

Hi @NanaEridan

This probably happened due to this:
https://help.forumotion.com/t155249-only-topic-technical-maintenance-on-forumotion-domains

That means if you log in to the Forumotion utils with the creation email of the forum, and then go to the "Direct connection" tab, you will be able to enter your admin panel and therefore you will know your current URL address of your forum

Greetings.

Please PM me a URL of your forum and the Email address you used to make the forum and I will see what the problem is

This is correct.  Your domain name is one of the listed:  roleplaylife.net
If you send APE your information, we could figure what your new extension is.  You must not have used the forum during the period before the domain name expired.

@APE and @SLGray - I followed the steps @mpelmmc suggested and it worked out just fine, I was able to retrieve my forum with its new extension.
Thank you so much for your help!

You're welcome.
