Yelp wont allow review responses unless you have a profile photo with a face

Is anyone else seeing this? I went to leave a review response on yelp today, and it stopped me and asked me for a picture with my face on it. . .and then told me to wait until it was approved. This is a pain.

They've always requested a profile pic for this. However, I just did one for a client and both the new pic and the reply were added immediately.

I have always seen that also, although maybe years ago, it may have been different.

I know a few people who have had a wee bit of fun what this, actually, posting, let's say, unauthorized photos of celebs, politicians, etc.

I guess that I should add this:

I added a stock photo of a nurse. . . we'll see if that goes through.
