Don't know what to do. My website was hacked by some moroccan hackers and I have no idea what to do now.
Help

Well that depends on what damage they did, but change all your passwords would be a start, also try and determine how they broke in.

I just had an attempted hack a few weeks ago and I concur. Also, try these folks, I was recommended to them and I can definately recommend them now myself:

I'm trying to learn how to do this myself that way if it ever happens again. When I go onto my website it won't let me log in. The person who hacked changed my username to theirs and my password.
I can go onto my server but need instructions on what to do from there. Do I go into mysql or where to find out what I can do to change this person from admin and put myself back as admin.

update your software (vb version need to be up to date, 3.5.4 is cool), update php, mysql, your OS and anything you suspect.
Keep a backup up to date too! Its a pain in the ass starting all over from 0.
good luck!

Starting over from 0 - does this mean that I'm going to loose all the posts from my board and everything else?

You should have a backup, hopfully, not too long before the hack job. Using that backup, you should be able to restore most of what you lost. If you haven't been making frequent backups you are SOL.

Guess I'm SOL because I haven't made any backups. I guess I just thought my server did that automatically until tonight. Shows how computer illiterate I am :(

Most hosts do make backups for you. Some charge to restore, some do not. Check with your host about it. I'll send some positive vibes your way.

If your content is still intact and they merely locked you out it's an easy fix.
Just login to phpmyadmin and change yourself back to admin then email yourself the password.
Then update all you can do.
