I've never had to get references before but with the China situation going on its not too easy to get certain things right now, especially GH. Many are asking for a veteran or a moderator of a well known forum to say "this guy is legit and cool" or something like that... so how would somebody go about getting those references. Obviously they must be a board member for quite a while with a lot of posts. However, do you need to know them personally or can you just look at their membership, posts, and PMs to give that person a reference?

Much appreciated if you post anything that I can do to get myself references.
