You have to delete the existing tables before you import your backup.

oh ok i just did that uploading it now see what happens

Michael83 is correct,

You have to remove the tables... BUT! if the Db is a different name, then create a Db using the 'old' "takya_mybboard"

And use that to re-install MyBB v.1.1.6, then delete those tables and upload the 1.1.6 Db you have saved to that Db...

In other words.. The new Db for 1.1.6 should be the same name as the 'old' database you have backed up..
