I found out what is wrong with the database. It's size has exceeded the allowable limit on our hosting plan. This leaves two choices, either upgrade the plan at an additional $350 a year or delete older posts or some forums to get it back under a gigabyte in size. If you opt for donating enough to cover the additional cost (I would do it myself if I could, but my SS check doesn't go that far) or ongoing deletion of posts whenever the database exceeds the allowable size. Since this is your forum, I leave the choice to you. If either way, we have till December 5 to either raise the money or delete the data.
