Do you use your photos on Similar Worlds?

"Hello, we're going to hold basic features found on every competent website hostage behind sending your face to some random guy called Nuno who, lets face it, the users don't actually know they can trust."

This is scummy as hell. I understand letting people verify if they want to, but what has resetting a forgotten password got to do with this [i]at all[/i]? I don't understand why you would do this. It's so, so scummy. Incredibly disappointing.

I've paid you money to support you, but no, you think it's appropriate to potentially cut me off from my account because I don't want you to see my face.

Also yeah, that reminds me, INTERESTING THING. Apparently, if you want the tick, you have to have a picture of yourself available for everyone to see. I don't fundamentally mind this, what I do mind is that YOU AT NO POINT ADVERTISE THIS. If I'm wrong about this, feel free to correct me.

You market this as 'an option for people who share pictures', but you've built it as a tool for creating an SW elite, and punishing anyone who dares to not join it.

I'm, honestly, disgusted. You found a way to implement a potentially good feature in the most obtuse, and frankly rude way you possibly could.

Unless something changes, I will not be renewing my VIP membership.
