UNsolicited email by definition is SPAM....for emails.
Yes, you would be a spammer. Could get shut down.
The reason they have the double opt in (where you need to respond to an email) is to prevent the accusation (which is all it takes to many hosts) of being a spammer, even if they forgot they signed up...
What you are thinking of will get your goose cooked.
NOW, spam on a forum, is where you come by, never contribute, but offer your services or products for sale and leave a link. That gets deleted very quickly.
SPAM can create massive headaches for you. Make sure you are prepared to deal with them when you spam.
