Because it seems people just keep adopting a bunch of mine and while I've only used up one mb of my database out of 100, it's only been 3 days and I'd hate to run out of room in the future.

Yes, you can by hard-coding this value into the script. Please see this post (http://www.rusnakweb.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=1200&pid=9177#pid9177) which describes how to limit the number of adoptions per user to 1 per user.

To set the number, in the provided code find:

if($num > 0){

Replace 0 with the number for the maximum adoptables a user can have. :)

Also, if database space is filling up fast you can clear the contents of your adopts_vote_voters table. Be sure to clear it late in the day though as it keeps track of who voted to level up an adoptable and if you clear it mid-day some people can vote for a pet twice in a day, but the data from old dates is not needed anymore.

You can clear by running this query in PHPMyAdmin:

DELETE FROM adopts_vote_voters
