      Honestly you could say because you like to talk about tacos and it would get approved most of the time. We have that turned on because otherwise we’ll get 60k spam users overnight. Email verification costs money especially if you’re being spammed with 60k requests and the statement box stops all of it.

      Lol, you just need to write a sentence or two. I just wrote that I was leaving reddit and beehaw looked cool.
