gutonc, I find it really troubling how you respond to people who post on this forum. You are very stand-offish and hostile with your questioning, and I can't imagine why you would respond to this post the way you did. Someone comes here to ask a very legitimate and important question that could not only affect him, but could affect his classmates, colleagues, and friends as well. You then proceed to assume that his question only has legitimacy if he is an MS4 who has matched to BID, as I gather from the hostile tone of your question. I feel that not only as a mod of this forum, but also as a respected attending physician that you should really pause to think about the antagonistic tone of your questioning. Whether or not the OP is an MS4 who matched to BID is irrelevant. Your reasoning for asking whether they matched there: illogical. The OP was put off by your accusation, and other people in this post were wondering the same thing. I was curious about their question after reading the post. Is this not what this forum is all about? We should be here to answer questions without being hostile, and to foster discussion without putting people off.
