I'm still baffled by the 12 year olds on this forum.
if you don't believe they own a box, then why don't you ignore them? and the people who trust the poster can proceed with business as usual.
so cringeworthy

"Pics or it didn't happen" is a standard (almost universal) greeting for new folks on internet forums that specialize on a certain something, be it a car, guns, watches, airplanes, or just about anything else. It is meant as a friendly encouragement 
Welcome!

Really AE?
12 year olds???
Asking for a pic is kind of a long time ongoing theme on this forum as well as others
similar to Timco asking a new member about both rear fog lights working.
BTW, have you checked to see if both rear fog lights work?

and then immediately person B says "pics or it didnt happen", then person B is saying they don't believe that person A truly owns a boxster and is, in fact, accusing them of lying about their claim of owning a boxster.
So a new member comes in to say hello, hasn't really gotten to know the community yet and doesn't take the time to post pics with their first post. One of their first interactions with the community will be dealing with a bunch of strangers accusing them of being a liar. really fun time.

WTF is your problem???
Trolling you???
You are reading far more into this than there is. It's all in good fun and part of welcoming someone. "Picks or it didn't happen" is an expression, not an attack. No one is calling anyone a liar.
As most here are enthusiasts, we like to see other peoples cars. To my knowledge, no one has been ostracized or kicked out of the forum for not posting a pic
And in any case I did not call you a liar and you come at me???
Of all the things to get your knickers in a twist. Maybe you should back off of the caffeine a bit?
Millennial?
Jonathan Lamebutt reincarnated?

If you could follow the conversation, you would realize that I'm not talking about anyone calling me a liar in this instance, rather "jcslocum" insinuating that the original poster is lying.
Its tough, I know. You're doing great.
The tone of your response and flippant/excessive use of question marks is probably a good enough testament to your character.

If you bothered to read any of jcslocumn's posts, you would know that he is a nice, intelligent, and helpful person, not prone to calling anyone a liar, especially for not posting a pic
As far as the ??? That is called emphasis
Who died and left you in charge?????????????
A testament my character. That's a good one
I may actually have to use the IGNORE button for the first time

Get a grip bro - this is an internet forum, surely your familiar with Reddit, same premise but without the fake karma and circle jerks.
