Thread:Project:Support desk/Corrupted database - where to from here?/reply (2)

Nope, sadly no backup. Lesson learnt, etc. The database is completely wrecked, to the point where my host is refusing to even speak about it any more. Regular pages are filled with junk between the words, and all forms of punctuation have been stripped:

I can get everything back eventually, I suppose. Going to save what's there and try and recreate the wiki as best I can. Fresh install time?
