It's not true. Read on.
Friendster currently boasts 40 million members. Assume that Friendster allocates 10MB to all your stuff (excluding videos/music since they are just linked to other sites as YouTube, RockYou, etc.).
Let me do the math for you.
40,000,000 x 10MB = 400,000,000 MB
1,000 MB = 1 GB
Friendster needs 400,000 GB
1 500GB hard drive costs $149 on shopzilla.com
Therefore, Friendster needs 800 500GB hard drives at the cost of $119,200. (Just trust my math. ok? Hehehe!
Go to hotjobs.yahoo.com/salary. A US website manager earns as much as $112,227 a year.
Simple explanation. The simple question: Friendster running out of space? Simple answer: No! (They can even fire one lousy manager and double their capacity. LOL!)
Don't be fooled with this crap as well as those on Yahoo! Mail and other sites. Pass on to friends.

don't believe it. i keep on receiving spam mails regarding this. that if you don't send them to other users, your account will be considered inactive and that it will be deleted. i ignored these messages and my account is still active. I also received similar spam messages before on yahoomail's closure. =)
