Have you tried contacting your host for a site backup
They make their own backups.
Some will restore a folder or two.
You just need to make sure they do not restore a backup prior to when the old owner upgraded to UBB 7.7.5.
Just the files not the database is what you want.
Then only items such as language changes, html includes,some various setting changes will be lost. But the posts will be current as long as they do not reload the database from a backup.

So be careful when you ask the host for this.

There is no such thing as stupid questions. Just stupid answers
