2.Vetting is the community practice of checking a potential play partner's reputation, references, and history before agreeing to meet or play. This might involve asking mutual community members about someone's behavior, checking references they provide, or researching their history on community platforms. Vetting is an important safety practice — particularly for people new to a community or meeting someone unfamiliar. While it is not foolproof, it significantly reduces the risk of encountering bad actors who have a documented history of consent violations.
