Yes you are right and I always support diaries with x-ray and videos are more reliable . In the past when i had asked xray or videos in this forum ,they said i am troll and was abused.
I'd even say that xrays can be faked. People here come for information and get info for free (thanks to admins and mods who run this for free. Huge shoutout to them).They at least should have the decency of giving back in return. At least they should do everything they can to make future LLers believe them and post xrays,pics,scars,videos,food pics, apartment pics and everything. That in no way would reveal their identity. And I don't think that would be inconvenient either.
If I ever get it done I would post EVERYTHING.
Not some "I had the surgery ,was in hospital , some pain, some problems and boom I'm taller and believe me the doc's great" BS. Anyone can fake it. God knows how many people end up going to docs who probably have had a billion complications already and have made fake accounts to post good things about them here.
Note- I'm not trying to be an ahole and I'm not saying with certainty that this guy is fake. It's just that some docs(specifically sarin) aren't really known for being the most ethical docs of the world.
