The SQL system is overloaded. Too many connections error.

There is a support ticket in, but being a bank holiday it may not be dealt with swiftly. After all the webhosting is provided as a "freebie as is" add on to the main game server package.

The problem with being on a shared hosting system, especially with many other gaming clans also using a similar package is that is only takes one of those clans to experiment with their own things like statiscis packages. Configure them badly and too many queires can simply overload stuff. I suspect that may have happenned here, but don't really know yet.

The game servers run on our dedicated server and will be unaffected by the website being down.
