Nope. ;-)
I understand why you don't like this, if you're highly security conscious or mad about the spam you get. But my privacy policy is very simple and clear, and it's linked right next to the text input for the email. Some site features use your email address, and future features will, too.
- mynameishere 18y agoWhat percentage of users do you want to turn away automatically? It's not a privacy issue.
- lucasoman 18y agoOk, how would you suggest I change it? I would really like to have a valid email address because, as I said above, some site functionality depends on it. Should I allow them to immediately use the Simplist and just disable email-dependent features until it's confirmed?
- axod 18y agoyes. Only ask for stuff when you really need it.
- alex_c 18y agoOr trust them, and let them change their email later (or verify it later), if they decide they can't live without the features that need a valid email. I've found that the vast majority of users enter a valid email to start with. Those who are really security-conscious might use a one-time email just to register, which won't work later on anyway.
