I guess you have accessed this page from Internet Explorer or Opera. I already mentioned that first, open this page from firefox and only then perform copy-paste! πŸ™‚

manish December 1, 2007

hi friend,

i need a help.i want to punish a fellow on orkut.he is a moderator of a community.and i m the member of the same community.
he misused his power and banned me from that community without any reason.
i dont want to hack or delete his account.
his orkut profile is http://www.orkut.com/Profile.aspx?uid=15344959526090226946

without changing his password i want from u to chane his name to “ass hole” only once and write a scrap in his scrap book from his own id.

” go straight without punishing the right people else u will be no more on orkut”

thats all.

pls do reply.

Thanks & Regards
Manish Srivastava

copy the above code and post it in your first and last name…
and then delete 4|\| 1|)107 from both the fields and let the space (which is the first character of this code which is invisible)in the text boxes. and save the changes you will see your name is hidden.
