    Default [VERIFIED] mailbomb/spam someone using the script.

    ok sorry i cant help of thinking of ways to abuse every feature you add hehe ;)

    Basically if i had the email address of someone i didn't like i could use the script to mailbomb/spam them with emails.

    All i would need to do is sign up with my email address as the person i dont like, then if "Signup Verification" is enabled i just keep constantly clicking the "send email" button and they get an email every time.

    Another way is using the invite friends page, this one is better as i can add multiple email addresses. Once i have added them and entered my own custom abusive message too ;) i just keep constantly clicking "send invite" button and they all get an email everytime.

    Maybe some kind of limit on how many times an hour or whatever i could send emails to the same address?

    Default May 30 update: Don't keep bringing up the verify window

    Hello:

    I'm not sure I understand the addition of the "Please Confirm Your Email
    Send a confirmation email to: " form. You've already gotten their email address, so just send the confirmation when they click "join"...

    And as well, once a user puts an email in that form and clicks "Send", you bring the form back up again, which is unnecessary, and will be confusing for some users.

    Thank you!

    You can trun off this in admin > settings, verify signup.

    You you see this again is because they try to upload video with out verifying email address.

    vshare send mail to user when they signup with link to activate the account. If they do not do it and login to account and try to upload, they get the validate email page.
