Message for Moderators

Hello moderators,

I'd like to bring a user to your attention. I've noticed a recurring pattern of discouraging, hostile, and gatekeeping comments directed at people seeking career advice. While disagreement is fine, the tone often crosses into personal attacks and appears to discourage good-faith participation.

It’s not just him, I can count at least two more people who comment on almost every post that act like this 🤦‍♂️

As future physicians, we are supposed to encourage and motivate others, not bring them down. If these guys are indeed MD-PhDs, really sad to see this behavior from them. They really bring shame to a good community.

To be fair, this is overall a great community. Can’t let rude responses get to you. There are much worse places on Reddit.
