Then there's no verification step, preventing the entire mechanism of you not getting spammed.

It sounds like cuu508 didn't want the post-verification welcome, as opposed to the one-time verification message.

Correct.

		Yes, correct. When I clicked the link I was already welcomed by the welcome page (which is, for the most part, welcomed). But then why send me another email further welcoming me? I already feel welcomed! And don't give me any of that "because it works" BS (even though that is what you are going to say). (cuu508, "you" in this instance does not mean you)
