It was a good board that had 80k+ posts and alot of members. Is their anyway to bring it back or get information why it got shutdown, so you could bring it back and us avoid it happening again in the future.

This is harsh. :/

I hesitate to even answer, since it often leads to others posting for explanations about other boards, but.. :ermm:
It looks like it was shut down on January 3rd.
The report itself is fairly vague, and it must have been investigated by DuffMan himself, as there are no confirmation comments by staff members.
He may or may not wish to explain why, especially since it was so long ago he'd probably wouldn't remember and would have to dig around in the database to find out, but you never know.
I can tell you that unless it was shut down by accident, which would be extremely unlikely, it will not be re-opened or its data made available for any reason.
As far as avoiding such things in the future, just read the TOS, a few times if you have to, and there should be no problems.
You can always ask questions here about whether something is ok or not, if you're unsure.
