Quite a weird reaction to get from what you thought was an innocent post, huh? Ive been lurking around here for several years now since I was in med school. People tend to forget the reason that student doctor exists, (for students). I know that I viewed student doctor as a kind of mentor, since I didnt have a good mentor in medical school. Some people on here get extremely anal when you bring something up that they have already discussed. They read your post and think, Gosh, what a ******, we discussed like just three years ago (Read that quote with a Napoleon Dynamite voice). Some people view numbers of posts as a pre-requisite to be in the cool ER crowd. You get the impression that they would write on the rest of their resumes for the rest of their lives that they have 1000+ posts on student doctor. Why do I come here? It is a sick obsession that my wife tells me I need to stop. I get a kick out of a lot of the threads and once in a while, learn something. Once in a while, somebody will be extremely helpful and post a link to the previous discussion, rather than flame the OP. I think mostly, that people just love to win an argument, and put others down while being completely anonymous. I'm making around $220,000 a year just out of residency. I work 12 12's a month.
