    Exclamation Basic Rules for OH2 Forums, & Verification!

    Welcome to the wickedry!

    From the chief admin, codes of behavior (in no particular order of importance) applicable site-wide:

    NO:

    --
    discussion of illegal substances or the illegal sale of legal substances (per Federal laws... No recreational drugs/euphemisms mentioned, no offers/solicitation of prescription meds.)
    -- bestiality
    -- underage anything
    -- violence or physical threats
    -- health data (except your own)
    -- personal welfare data (except your own)
    -- multiple handles (
    If any member has an access issue/needs a password reset, DO NOT create another account. Please contact support@ourhome2.net to correct the problem.)
    -- operating someone else's account w/o admin permission
    -- outing others' personal (or former) identity data
    (Some exceptions exist ...Discretion of staff.)
    -- racial or gender slurs
    --
    shaming!
    -- disrespecting staff
    -- leaking information from secure forums
    -- thread hijacking
    -- exposure of others' PMs or EMs or texts (Again, some exceptions exist at the discretion of staff.)
    -- stalking/doxing (And other harassment.)

    -- Yes,
    sexual action photos/videos ARE allowed, but only via hotlinks, not hosted here.
    (Please don't upload graphic intimate imagery to our database!)

    The above is more or less a summary of existing rules/expectations for OH2 members within the OH2 site and elsewhere. Yes, elsewhere is inclusive for members. Members' bad actions elsewhere will be considered actionable here.

    Members are expected to know and follow the rules. (Which will be periodically updated as necessary.) Warnings are never mandatory and issued only at staff discretion. -- ck1942

    OH2 is built upon a foundation of mutual respect and shared interests. Let's keep the place politely pleasurable for all participants. Thank you, and Happy Hobbying! -- FIH/staff

    (As stated above, rules will be updated occasionally as decreed by necessity and our expanding membership, so highly recommended that members check the national FAQ/
    Ourhome2 Community Quick Rules Summary every so often.)

    Exclamation Verification

    The H2 verification system is primarily based on vouches by other validated Hobby participants met BCD and sent into admin, and full access (private forums, advertising, etc.) is a privilege of that status.

    Please read the following from our happy host admin, ck1942:

    WHERE TO START! Hobbyist Candidates: https://home.ourhome2.net/vb/showthread.php?48371-WHERE-TO-START!-Hobbyist-Candidate

    WHERE TO START! Companion Candidates: https://home.ourhome2.net/vb/showthread.php?48370-WHERE-TO-START!-Companion-Candidates

    All any member has to say when vouching is, "I have seen _____ recently and am happy to confirm that a session took place."

    The Member List in the drop-down under the Community tab beneath the ourhome2.net masthead to the above left can be used to seek screen names of guys/gals you're familiar with.

    ONLY verified members can give vouches confirming recent in-the-flesh visits BCD, NOT from meet & greets or socials, NOT for people known only "online." Verified Companion vouches for other ladies may be considered at admin discretion IF the ladies have met/played/worked together.

    Under some circumstances, vouches elsewhere may also be considered at admin discretion. PM management for further discussion.

    ONLY Verified Companions may advertise outside of their initial Welcome Wagon introductions. ONLY Verified Hobbyists have access to the hidden details of reviews. ONLY the chief admin approves member status changes.

    Gentlemen, you will STILL have to offer references and/or be screened for play dates by Companions, as H2 verification is for site purposes only and is NOT a substitute for any individual provider's comfort and safety requirements.

    Please bear in mind that ALL staff is completely volunteer and has RW responsibilities, too, and many, MANY site validation requests are submitted daily and vouches must be confirmed, so verification may not happen immediately. Please be tolerant with delays.

    Also, to STAY verified, as this is intended to be an active Hobby community, all members have to log in regularly and should occasionally contribute to the community by posting, and re-vouching may be necessary as time passes.

    Happy Hobbying! -- FIH/staff
