Fastest way for ref/verification? Hhr?

[weebmanau]

Just curious between the hobbyist friends, is HHR a valid method for getting references/verification?
I understand YMMV, just looking for experience/opinions. Thanks.

I think a number of us are confused at what is meant by the question.

Seeing a provider... is seeing a provider...

There's no "fast way" for a guy to get verification... just need to go through the requirements for verification and wait for mods to have time to look at it...

I believe one thing that helps is being active and involved on the site... This being your first post in 6 yrs doesn't bode well for that...

Time length of appointments doesn't really fall into any factors for getting references and/or being verified.

Just need to get screened and book with a lady who is willing to be a reference and vouch for you.

An appointment is an appointment

Being active here has nothing to do with verification.



Some guys are so obsessed with getting verified status here because they think it will get you a lot more from girls or get them in faster. It will not. It should not.

Being *verified hobbyist* here should mean very little to girls who are checking you/him out. It means that you can read *gents only* area and does not guarantee that you are safe or nice or polite.

And if you have hustled a girl for a shortest possible date at discount, and you/he was less then perfect, do you really think, that that girl will go out of her way and do anything for you? I think not.

I was verified in about 4 weeks - which seems exceptionally fast based on what other hobbyists are saying.

I obviously followed the verification instructions. But beyond that I was getting vouches from every provider I saw - I didn't stop at three. I think I had 5 vouches at the time I was verified. I also participated actively and respectfully in the forums - and believe this helps. Interestingly, I have never posted a review - so I don't think that is a significant factor.

Finally, and I think this is what made the difference for me, I know that some of my vouches were from longtime companions who are well known to CK, and they spoke very highly of me in their PM's.

Of course this is all speculation on my part - every hobbyist is unique and your mileage can and will vary.

Cheers and hobby safely.

Perfect strategy Breastmann!
Excellent!

Perfect recap Breastmann. I?ve been a hobbyist short of a year. In that span, I?ve had some amazing appointments with companions who took my lack of forum participation with a grain of salt. Some great text and voice conversations helped get booked.

Give 3 current good references. Just answer our questions.

Please, be real. If you don?t have 2-3 good references then you need to be ready to show your id. We want safety with all playing.
Go to P411. It is so much more relaxed with verification… They ask prequalified questions.

I personally don’t care about time length. It actually is about being safe and fun.

The time that you spend is your providers preference.Nothing supersedes her safety. Be kind gents… … You have rewards.

If you follow the site protocol it only takes a couple weeks to get verified on oh2. Follow process.

I think that I misunderstood the question. Not sure… Alexandrasand is right. Don’t give up.

Now you have screening info and verification process. It really isn’t so difficult.

There are plenty of "active" hobbyist, with less than stellar reputations. Not everyone wants to get involved with the HS board drama. There's quite a few lurkers, and even some that are verified.
That being said though, like we've mentioned time and time again, a verified status simply gets you access to the Men's Lounge and the dirty details at the bottom of reviews. Nothing more and nothing less. You STILL need to provide screening requirements/info to each individual lady. It's not an automatic "shoo-in" to getting seen by most ladies.
Do I think "who" is giving the reference makes a difference, sometimes. If it's 2 new girls that just joined and got verified themselves then it could be a MANdle or "management" trying to sneak in. Being an active hobbyist I would assume helps (different from active poster, those need not go hand-in-hand).
People need to remember and realize admin/mods are getting at least 2 messages for every single hobbyist trying to get verified. Not just Austin, but ALL over as well. If not done in the proper format, it can make that process more difficult and they are back logged from my understanding.

I've tried to get verified here and it's just never happened. I've been on P411, over 60 okays...since 2011, and was on ECCIE for many years 50 plus reviews. Left the hobby for a few years and when I returned all the ladies had seemed to gravitate over to here, so I created a profile. I've seen several ladies on here, two are in this thread, and had vouches made for me and attempted to get verified here for two years now, and... crickets. So no reviews from me here or anywhere anymore. I just look at the ads here, and then reach out to them on P411 to get okayed. This place is just for me to look at photos, description of services, etc. I would love to contribute to the community but OH2 has not made it easy.

It took me a long time to get verified on OH2 as well (several months). Getting verified was worth the trouble, time and effort. I have benefitted immensely from the all of the info on this site.

Your profile status says "Verified Hobbyist"... you should be able to access the Locker Room and ROS now.
