How do I change the caption under my username?

I'm not with an agency and would like to have that removed.

Thx,

That's a system thing and will be adjusted shortly.

Also, what is the difference, where this site is concerned, between a Verified Provider and a Verified Companion?

[ck1942]

All "verified" provider carries the Verified Companion title; agencies have (soon as software updates is in place) have Verified Agency title.

home2 carried forward a few standards from aspd, for example.

As was done there, providers lost ad status if they didn't post didn't post for extended period (90 days); ditto for gents with "BCD" who didn't post new reviews.

home2 philosophy is somewhat adjusted.

Companions who are absent more than 90 days don't necessarily lose their access to ad forums immediately, just access to the security forums if they had it (which are in the process of being further adjusted for security needs).

Gents don't get BCD here unless they are vouched in by established providers. Gents here don't have to keep posting reviews (or, for that matter, even post reviews in the first place) to gain or keep BCD. But they do need to be re-vouched to keep that access.

Hope that 'splains a bit.
