--Briefly, "respect" and "kindness" are expected, encouraged and demanded for and from all OH2 members and "getting along" is also a community requirement. Please keep personal "stuff" off the board!

--Alerts and Security - alert forums are for information vital to community security, not to be used for general member information distribution. The disclosure of any personal data, including health data, is never allowed (with certain exceptions) in any forum, including alerts and security forums.

--Alerts and Security - Documentation will often be required for staff to evaluate, assess and determine action to protect community security. First hand data is required by staff. Second hand or hearsay reports are not acceptable. Open forum accusations/reports will be treated by staff as hearsay unless documentation has been provided.

--Welcoming new members is encouraged, and a new member's first Welcome Wagon thread may also include photos, rates, services, and that thread may be updated as often as necessary until verified status is achieved.

-- Ad forums (and ISO forums) are primarily for the marketing of in-person services intimate services only. Inclusion of other material must be ancillary, such as links to photo albums, reviews, websites or paid on-line and virtual services. (clarified 12-02-20)

A basic rule of engagements: (1) Ladies set their own rules for engagement AND (2) Ladies should make sure that gents know their rules. That way gents may make informed decisions and cannot complain before, during or after; includes "no review" policy issues and pre-pay or deposit issues and personal real world information requirements.

-- It is a companion's choice to have a "no review" policy and that will be enforced by staff. The companion must include such policy in her signature/ads to keep hobbyists informed. There is no retroactive enforcement by staff. Staff will enforce the policy as long as the companion applies it uniformly. If a companion allows ANY hobbyist (either by request or otherwise) review to stand, then staff will no longer allow her to post "no review policy" and will not enforce her statement.
