basically... the server has been getting slammed. The number of people 'online' is only measuring the people in the forum, and not the hundreds of others that are reading news/articles linked from www.interference.com. So... basically... at times today we've had in the area of 500 people at a time reading the site.... *sigh*

I've been working on getting this under control... but when a site like this has a database thats nearly 3 gigabytes... *sigh*... it's hard to manage. With coming album and tour, I'm expecting traffic/usage to increase by 33-50%... which means I'm probably going to be adding a new server to the Interference family sooner than later.
