Require verification for patient experiences

Also, I first suggested that we move to verifying all posts in the future, but maybe that's unrealistic. I think it's enough to have two separate patient experience sections: Verified and Unverified. The OP can choose which to submit to, they can decide which route they'd like based on their circumstances (less scrutiny vs more privacy).

That's a good idea.

I fully support you when you say a diary needs validification and proofs.I have been saying that for long,almost since I have signed up this forum.
It is too easy to make diaries here.I'm tired of random guys arriving here and making "patient experience" like:
"Hi,I have done 80 cm on tibias but i don't want to share pics or videos because of privacy"
Altough i trust actual admins and mods,admins can be corrupted(as we have seen with old forum) so I would choose an another method
In order to write a diary it should required AT LEAST pics,videos and x-Rays.
Face can be covered with dark circle and who claims to fear being recognized by scars is simply a joke,or worse (a promoter)

I completely agree!

I know this and old forum for some time now but just recently joined. I started reading all kind of posts on a daily basis and had my doubts from time to time... so I think this plan is excellent..

Me neither don't get the fuss about NOT posting x-rays due to privacy.
