Thanks for the expansion....

The basis here for ROS/verified/confirmed hobbyist status has always been "current" and "recent" companion confirmations and up until 2018 the process was very laxly enforced.

A single confirmation has always been valid for at least 90 days or so.

Multiple confirmations were not intended to be cumulative. Expiration is more or less imposed 90 days after the last confirmation.

However, greater leeway was always extended to well-established hobbyists with multiple reviews and multiple confirmations.

Finally in place now we have a somewhat more refined process (not fully automated yet) in which the base period continues to be the 90 days duration.

Newly confirmed hobbyists (with or without reviews) always earn a 90 day verified status and are expected to request confirmation of recent sessions (or reconfirmations) and the oh2 system should send a reminder if 75 days past last report.

Since this is an "active" hobbying community, the expectation for most gents is that they hobby every month or two, and

yes, we know many gents are not always sessioning with "reportable" companions here or elsewhere nor with "reportable" agency, studios and spa companions in the oh2 community.

Community companions (agencies, spas, etc.) who are members here (or sometimes elsewhere) are already well-attuned to the confirmation process and many will ask clients as a matter of course if the client wants them to send a confirmation.

OH2 now has a start up process by which spa/studio hobbyists who post qualifying reviews will be granted limited ROS (yet to be defined) and we hope that will spur them to gain confirmed status.

The issues with the review template gremlin are simply not being explored at the moment since something like 95 % of all review posting attempts appear to be posting without issues.

Linking reviews to companion profiles is something we ask the companions to do themselves, and they can insert links in their "About Me" or the Albums and or in other spots such as ads, signatures, etc.

But staff is considering how to educate companions to the possibilities -- especially since creating a photo album gives the companion an opportunity to display her attributes and her accolades.

Happy Hobbying!
