Any idea what's up?
We are aware. Simply, we're exceeding the maximum amount of connections to the MySQL server. Chris is working on fixing these issues.
A great proof of how popula' MyBB is.
It's way better today. Smile Seems like Chris already made his move.
That error is nothing to worry about on your end. It's just MySQLs limit being reached and therefore closing the other connections until it's free.
Hello Guys,

We've been entirely aware off this and we have been working to resolve it.
We have had to block a country where the spammers originate from in order to keep the server connections at a minimal.

We hope this has improved the stability of the forums to our members and software users while causing minimal interruption to everyone.

Thanks,
