The “Congrats On” Comments…

The thing I hate most about this community is when monkeys, especially young students, are asking genuine questions or advice on here and give background as to their bank or situation, and you guys try and dox them by saying “Congrats on [X Bank/Group]”.

You’d think that we’d be mature enough to actually try and be a helpful member of this community as opposed to trolling…

You only get a ‘congrats on’ when you try to slot your bank / role in an undeserved rank

It used to be that way but like anything else on the internet it got beaten to death and is no longer funny.

A few weeks ago someone wrote that they went to HYSPM and the first comment was "Congrats on MIT!" . . . Like ok? How exactly is going to one of the top 5 undergrads in the world embarrassing?
