RE: I deleted my admin account
Register a new standard user with the username "admin". Then go into your PhpMyAdmin for your forum database and run the following querey:

UPDATE mybb_users SET usergroup = '4' WHERE username = 'admin'

That will make the new account an admin.

You can also set the userID to 1 for the new account (this will make you super admin again)
Go into PhpMyAdmin again and run the following query:

UPDATE mybb_users SET uid = '1' WHERE username = 'admin'

Hope that helps!
