What table ? What precisely happens ?

My forum is a bout a football team.
When we are in the game day the users connected to the frum increase a lot.
So the hosting says when the users number increase the myisam of the post table get crazy and the server crashes.

Hope I was clear (not a big expert of server and tables, but I think I reported exactly what the hosting says)
