i'm so taking a shot in the dark here, nate, so feel free to smite me if necessary

make a backup copy of the csv file with user info (or sql table if you're running on an sql engine). setup the forum software on a test box, and try to replace the new (empty) user csv with the backup copy (or perform a 'recovery' of the sql table using the backup of the existing table). seems to reason that if you completely overwrite the empty dataholder with an up-to-date copy of the existing data holder, you should be alright.
