It takes a while because there is only one person doing verifications - ck1942. "A while" to some has been a year or longer. This site has grown by leaps and bounds the last year, so he has a lot to do. He also has a life outside this as well. Make sure to follow the directions on the link I posted above.

FYI: being verified doesn't mean you don't have to go through a provider's screening. It just means you get to see the men's lounge and some of the private areas that are on other states' sections.
