Whats up with all the downtime?

The forums have been down numerous times over the last week. Any explanation why?

<p>New hamsters have been ordered.  (both to turn the wheels on the servers, and to cart your packets) <img src="/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

I just saw something that will keep me silent the next time I'm ready to curse the forums. There are 2,587 online users: 1,862 registered, 725 guest(s)   Most users ever online was <b>5,292</b> on 2/13/07 1:04 PM Wow. It must be difficult managing a forum that can sustain that kind of load. (this was at 2:41 PM on a Friday)
