They are bots or AI scrapers. The culprit appears to be the Movies forum for some reason. 80% or more of the "visitors" are congregating there. As I understand it, the 508 error, also known as "Resource Limit Reached", results from excessive traffic. The obvious solution would be to take down the Movies forum, but this would be an undesirable option, and there is no guarantee that it would cure the problem.
