Also, much as I hate to confirm some member's feelings (suspicions?) that not all companions are created equally in that some may have less than strict compliance/follow through when they tell a hobbyist that "yes, I have sent ck1942 a session confirmation" and when ck1942 scans his pm/em incoming messages he finds nothing from that particular companion regarding that individual hobbyist ...
Plus, any member seeking verification status who persists in sending an additional four or five messages in the first week of his joining the community, is simply jamming more PMs into ck1942's already jammed pm string.
Pre-covid, the hacienda'42 had loads of empty common and empty personal space and residents could steer clear of each other's personal space very easily ... covid has reduced much of everybody's personal space and some of the so-called temporary residents no longer are occupied with "on line learning" and thus frequently wander/range/plumb/search the hacienda'42 in pursuit of very personal"attention" which diverts/divests/prevents both screentime/keyboard time from accomplishing certain community support activities. Due to inability to depart the hacienda solo, cannot use escape time for community duties, and frankly, if and when escape is possible, time is concentrated more on intimate "engagements" when those are possible. "Yes, dear, running up to HEB for the next three hours" no longer carries any weight since the recent responses are "take both of the rug rats with you or ELSE!"
Those who cannot understand/appreciate/accommodate much if any of the above ^^^ may well be doomed or even excluded herein.

addendum: icw mm1972's issue; using a total search process, read member's mail citing endorsers' was able to locate one companion's PM; could not locate the other companion's PM but did send her a confirmation request.

shortly there will be TWO new PM addresses for endorsements to be processed; one for endorsements from verified companions, another for endorsements from verified hobbyists. With a little bit of time management, both will be in place today and welcoming packets will be edited to reflect the process change. System notices will be sent to all vc/vh members in due course.
