So many of you are amazing people and nurses. The time you put in responding to posts on Allnurses really does make a difference.
BUT.
When people come here asking for advice on a situation, they are not looking for your opinion of them as a person or their behavior. You all know what threads I'm talking about.
It's one thing to point out that their behavior could potentially be dangerous to patients.
It's one thing to be honest and tell them that their future doesn't look too bright.
It's one thing to suggest they may find seeing a therapist very helpful.
It's another to tell them they are mentally ill, mock them RELENTLESSLY, or judge them. When you do this to your fellow nurses (that have just come to you for advice), you're worse than that poor, scared soul you FLAMED for thinking a drug abuser may have a bloodborne illness.
These posters are often simply desperate, scared, or just plain curious!
I know it's important to have a thick skin when you work in healthcare, and I sure as heck am not busting out the trigger-words bully†or NETY.†It's just that even in my CNA class, it was emphasized over and over that it's not our place to judge patients. Can't you afford the same courtesy to other nurses?
I'm generally a pretty quiet person, but I believe in standing up for other people. So I just had to put this out there.
I agree there r a lot of uncaring judgemental people who eat their young on here and just rip people up. So when they say if u don't want opinions don't ask I say they want help now the gun to end it! They r the ones that ***** about staffing numbers yet treat new nurses like an antelope and they r lions, seriously it makes me so mad how negative they can be so I say keep ur knives in the sheath and shut it darn mouths just read ur advanced nursing questions and keep ur words to yourself! For the love of God if is no wonder we r in such a crisis in nurses graduating.

It's against the TOS to write in text speak. The occasional "u" isn't a big deal, but when you write your whole post like that, it really disrupts the flow of your post. Not everyone here speaks English as their first language, which is why this is against the rules. You might have valid points, but you lose the impact when the reader has to stop and read a sentence over in order to catch what you are saying.
