The server's fine, mysql is only set to accept so many connections. Hasnt been an issue until now.

I restarted the mysql server to dump the active connections and get rid of the error.

Earlier there were 834 users online. So close to the record.

Must have been lots of people not actually browsing, otherwise their connections would have come back right?

It includes anyone who's browsed within the last 25 minutes before it times out.

Was that mod/admin section always visible to all users, or were/are you a mod?

Was always visible, although inaccessable (unless you're a mod). Was a vbulletin version thing.
