We explain well what the Picture Verification is for, in the section itself:
"Verifying your account will allow you to recover your account if you happen to lose it.
Verifying with a Public Photo can help to authenticate one's identity, for those who share images of themselves on SimilarWorlds."
There is nothing saying it is "to get access to most of the users on the site".
It's totally Optional (as explicitly tagged on the section), and it's simply for users who want to make sure they can recover the account easily in case of losing their email address, and/or to prove they are the person in the photos in their albums. No such thing as "holding most of the site hostage until you verify".

Why does SW need a current email and a current picture to verify people. Why do I need to give up personal information to get access to most of the users on the site. SW says the other users won't see that information so what is SW going to use it for.
They are holding most.of the site hostage until you verify.

@Pitchblue I've been a member of SW almost from the beginning. I was a bit late to notice it had opened it's doors.
Doesn't the site say Verify to unlock all features? So are you withholding access until I give a mugshot? I'm logging on and seeing the same 20 questions. Why don't I have access to the rest of the site. Why are my questions bumped off the homepage when a user that posts about pedophila is always on the homepage every time I log on. I am honestly curious. So now that I have your attention can you answer these questions?

We do not hide any posts from non-verified people.
@Pitchblue I didn't realize they were hiding posts for people not verified. I still doubt I'll do it.
@originnone It says, Verify to unlock all features. I see the same 20 posts over and over. What happened to the rest of the users? Has the algorithm grounded me? I don't understand. You'll notice SW didn't answer my questions.
