Just curious.

Means nothing really.. a false sense of security... anyone could have a person stand in front of a camera with their profile name on it.. doesn’t make them any more real or fake than someone who doesn’t verify themselves...
You still don’t know for sure... a man pretending to be a woman could take his picture with the profile name, another without, and then hide it so no one can see.. it’s verified because the pictures match and the sign with the name matches the profile name..

they've verified their identity with photos. you can click on and view the green ones

Verified status. You send in a pic to admins with you holding a sign that has your username/date/similarworlds on it, then send them in a separate pic where your face matches the face of the person holding the sign. Once you do that, you become verified. Then, you decide who you want to see the verified pic, if you let everyone see it, it is a green circle with a check mark, it is gray in color if you make it private for friends only or admins only

That means the account is verified. White circles means you can not view the picture they used to verify the account.

Narcs

I think it means they are the SW Police.lol

👽️They're not like us

it means they have been assimilated.

What Dormouse said, plus I think the white ones are for people who hid their verified photo.

It means they have inappropriate pictures on their profile.

My white circle means only friends can view my photo.

Can I stick my finger in... Oh, now it's all brown. Not green... This is worse than rickrollin'.

Some are pure evil and others only a little.
