It is when the site(forum) uses more than its allocated amount of resources in the hosting environment. This probably refers to the amount of bandwidth used, but could include hard drive space, RAM and CPU too.

We have had this on SACanada too in the past couple of days. If it's due to the same thing, it's probably that the Russian search engines have also discovered SAAustralia and are flooding it with their search "bots". I have put in measures to block such sites because they look like regular visitors to our forum host, and then we get penalized for it. Hopefully we won't see it anymore.
