I'm the culprit.
I wanted to delete a redundant shadow topic following the original topic's move to the ''The History Of Arsenal FC'' subforum.
For some reason, and against all logic, if you use the quick tools to delete a shadow topic, the original topic also gets deleted without warning.
The problem is, once you delete a post, it's gone forever. Unless you have a backup.
Thankfully Ellimist, GW's host, does have a backup, but we will have to repost every post individually and manually change each post to the original author -

TL;DR
Timestamps will be different, but all original content will be restored.
