    Verification Process- Does it Even Exist???

    How many folks have followed the supposed verification process, only to remain unverified and in limbo for weeks or months after submitting your request?

    I, for one, had two providers send voucher PMs to CK the end of February, and I sent my verification request immediately afterward...nada. I sent a reminder with forwarded PMs from the providers a few weeks later...nada. I recently sent a THIRD request to CK, and the providers sent new voucher PMs. Still f'n nada!!!

    IF this strikes a nerve, then it's completely justified! If this gets me banned, then admin will have demonstrated a total lack of integrity and honor! Those of us in verification purgatory have good reason to be pretty disappointed!!! When a process has a single point of failure, then the process is not sustainable. Just say'n...

    Before simply banning me for airing stanky laundry, I'd welcome the opportunity to try to find a feasible solution to the verification backlog! After all, problem solving was one of my key duties over my 33-year professional career.

    I do appreciate that there has to be a deliberate process with the Reagan-esque "trust but verify" approach. But the current situation is handicapping good and trustworthy gentlemen, who can be positive members of our community...

    Hang in there & be patient....dont fire off too hard because there's a few " Non -admin " that feel it's their duty to go hyper-defensive when noobs throw shade. I know its frustrating but good things come to those who wait.

    For starters, 'noob' is a relative term. It's quite possible I've been around the game since you were in grade school. You never know who you're addressing, or their background.

    Second, sometimes shade is entirely deserved and self-inflicted. In this case, it's both. Admins will bend over backwards to verify female providers in days, while giving the guys the proverbial middle finger. Don't espouse patience when admins (really just the ONE admin with verification authority) clearly display a double standard for verifying females-vs-males...

    Yes Doc! All the above. Me read good, me follow rules.
    P.S. Reach out to the provider who helped you get started. She's one of my references as well...

    I have seen him a few times, and I also trusted him enough to do a over night.. I recall also being in dis- stress due to my tire basically coming off while 45 minutes outside of, San Antonio. My mechanic came by, he jack the car up and left it on the jack, as he didn't even have all his tools. Next day, Dizzy came to my rescue.


    Dizzy, I know it may be frustrating but I'll be your 3rd vouch.
    CK, I will send you a proper pm aside from my post in this thread.
