What will happen if someone will not pass KYC?

You surely can't withdraw your funds if you didn't pass the kyc. As stated in the OP even you didn't get verified at first attempt you can still try to pass proper documents so no worries.

If we don't want to deal with kyc here it's fine as we have a lot of exchange sites that doesn't need kyc. So it's our choice and no one forces us to use this.

very good planning but what can be directly verified or not, about my experience when the verification was very difficult to receive.

Have you already acquired BTC and are interested in trading to profit from price fluctuations, or do you want to buy your first bitcoins?

If it's the former then you could try BTC-E or bitfinex, as they don't require you to submit your dox, stool samples, etc. if you're not planning on withdrawing or depositing fiat currencies.

If it's the latter then most exchanges will ask for the dox, but you can avoid this hassle if you decide to buy through localbitcoins.

Thank you malevolent for your posting.
In answer to it:

I did earn some free BTC already. I don't think it's enough to trade with (yet), but I AM interested in the subject. I guess the wisest thing to do, untill that time, is to read more about it and gain more information on how trading with it works. Maybe it's the thing for me, in future, too? From what I've read till so far is that some earned a decent amount with it. But, I've also read about people that lost a decent amount.
And so your answer leeds to the following question: 'If one (a newbie like me) wants to have more information about it, what sources (articles, website, books, documentaries if there are any, etc...) would you recommend?'

And about the 'latter' .. thank you for this tip. I will get into 'localbitcoins' as well, and try to learn more first.

So, I guess you can read from my posting, I am really still a newbie on all of this stuff, but willing to learn. Thank you for making a little bit wiser. If you have more tips or suggestions ... plz do so!

Back to the subject of Mt. Gox ....
Quite disturbing news I've read. Mt. Gox suspended withdrawals. I've read something about technical issues and hope they overcome it in short periode of time. BTC rate plunged into the deep with -20% and more, and japanese are selling like hell!! Those are the stories on the internet I've read. All the more reason, if one is a newbie like me, to first gain more information on trading with BTC, before doing so.

I have accounts on 8 trading sites including Gox but never put any money in Gox as I am from the UK and they had just lost their Barclays account to sent £££s in and found I could use OKpay but getting my docs verified on there took a few weeks. In the meantime I looked at many sites and found localbitcoins the easiest to use and to buy but not cheap. Adding all the charges to transfer GPB into USD then to the trading sites I found if I picked a dip in the BTC price I could buy it overall at a good price at localbitcoins and with a lot less hasstle.
I spread my BTC in a qt wallet to hold and on several trading sites as i no longer trust any will ALL my money. Also some Casascius physical Bitcoins.

Hello,
I have question,
MtGox accept Canadian citizens?

If you're in Canada you might as well stay with https://www.vaultofsatoshi.com based in Canada.

Read up on all the horror stories with Mt. Gox, not worth it.

So while we'd love to be able to offset the costs a little, if we were ever caught doing this as a company, we would face serious fines and even jail time. We hope that knowing that this threat to us exists gives you confidence that we're being kept honest.

I really hope that this is a joke. If the law is all that is keeping you honest then you have little integrity to begin with.

Exactly.

Please do not deposit any funds into Mt. Gox. Puurmaa, they've kind of taken my 1BTC hostage while they decide if they respond to my requests for verification, I couldn't imagine losing 20. I finally received a response on January 24th after nearly a month of waiting. And this is after they decided to increase the wait time to 20 days from my original 10 day wait time. I can't wait to see what their withdrawal time is LOL. I'm looking at it as, if I get my money withdrawn at any point in time I'll consider myself on of the lucky few. This is a very bad public perception you have going on Mt. Gox and it's pretty much your own damn fault as a company.

My opinion is to steer clear from making any transactions with them.

Mt Gox is no longer honoring the withdrawal of Bitcoins either.  I decided to get out of Mt Gox, converted my fiat to BTC (at a loss) and requested a withdrawal.  I expected it to take under an hour - the whole thing ought to be automated right?

Nope

It has been 2 days now and zero indication of any activity.  But Mt Gox certainly took their .01 withdrawal fee.

MT GOX IS A COMPLETELY SHADY and INCOMPETENT EXCUSE FOR A BUSINESS.  I'm in IT and there is no reason such an operation should be screwed up - I can understand issues with dealing with fiat, but not something handled predominantly through software.  I apparently never even owned my bitcoins or even fiat, I suppose - you put money into Mt Gox, you are GIVING it to them!

Bitstamp on the other hand has been superb.

I'm in the same boat.   I've submitted my paperwork to MT GOX over a month ago and it still says that it's reviewing. 

How long does it usually take for US customers that are verified to withdraw their funds?
Months
