Simul nettiquette

Dear all,
Observation: So many players love simuls. Luckily many great players give simuls. Unfortunately, many simuls show lack of professional behaviour (mostly by lower rated players).

Hence it would be great to have:

1. A documentation how a lichess simul should be conducted. E.g. a) welcome message b) show start condition in time and players

2. A rating of the player if he is a proper simul player

3. A timeout for simuls (if the host never reacts in the chat or starts) as e.g. 15 minutes.

I am sure there are tons of more good ideas out there
Best Regards
Stefan Edlich

P.S: The simul de.lichess.org/simul/kBHdTpFq from renan rais is sticky in the 'running' block if I call the simul page although it was finished days ago!
It would be nice to have some kind of recognition for those who adhere to the above, perhaps after you have done a certain number you could be a "known host" or something ??
