« on: April 10, 2009, 11:23:20 pm »

hi fellows and mods.

http://picturerating.us/picture-gallery/index.php (adult content warning)

i am getting over 2400 pageloads per day, and all is working fine.

today i check the ecard portion in admin menu, there are 6500 ecards sent... ???

and all these cards are spammed, mean stuppid serial type email addresses like
abc@yahoo.com
abc1@yahoo.com

You can't lock threads here, that's beyond your privileges.
