I'm trying to figure out WHY my database crashes ever week. I was wondering if its possible that my database can crash because theres too many people on and I hit my bandwith limit
.
is that lilkely, or unlikely?
Oh, wait, I didn't read well... haven't slept in a day or two and all, sorry.

The combination of your low amount of ram, relatively high number of visitors and badly written script causes crashes, the crashes cause corruption. So, the advice is pretty much the same as in my previous post. Either more ram or a dedicated database server, and some optimization of your script.
