a client's vbulletin site went off line today for about 11 hours. when the host finally restored VPS service, the site wasn't quite fully restored. the host explained that they had to go back to the db that was sitting on the shared server, because the one on the VPS server was lost (the VPS site was being automatically backed up every night).

does that make sense?
arn't the registrations and the messages stored in the same db? if one can be fully restored, why not the other?

Nope, it doesn't make any sense. If it was a complete backup and restore, then all the info would be there from last night's forum.
