I've done something really dumb but can't figure out how to change it...

I made a change in my forum settings and now can't change it back again and the forum page and admin tools have completely disappeared:

http://forumer.com/tsoundscape

It was in the forum settings. I changed "Home Site" to Turbulent Soundscape and the section above that to "Presented By Turbulent Soundscape" which, looking back, probably has WAY too many letters. Now it won't let me back in to change them back. Is there anything I can do?

I think I need an SQL admin to look into this... Who should I contact?

Please help... Lots of people are shouting at me now

Oops...

My bad. Looks like I've got the same thing as a load of people as mentioned on the "Bug Reports" forum. In my defense it happened literally two seconds after I made some fairly rash changes on my Admin CP (which I'm never doing again).

Looks like I'm troll food. Set flamers to kill.

What, the unnecessary, unhelpful, patronising one?

I am so sorry. But......... :lol: :lol: :lol:
Really dude. If you had a better forum side mannor, you might get that staff job you are obviously digging at. Try to remember this. Some people are opening a forum for the very first time. Everything is brand new to them. The slightest problem might seem very extreme to them. Being a jerk doesn't help matters any.
I agree with some of your points. But treating people like they are an idiot is not the way to give help.

I do agree with ya scorp and I am not digging at a mod job I mod on others forums already...but somebody needs to crack the newbies in line....maybe I'll hand my "forum side bed pan"over to you??? :lol:

lol. No thankyou. I have my own forum to deal with. I just check in here every now and again to see if I can offer some sort of help to those who need it.
