Hey folks - as a member of the DawgNation community, please remember to abide by simple rules of civil engagement with other members:
- Please no inappropriate usernames (remember that there may be youngsters in the room)
- Personal attacks on other community members are unacceptable, practice the good manners your mama taught you when engaging with fellow Dawg fans
- Use common sense and respect personal differences in the community: sexual and other inappropriate language or imagery, political rants and belittling the opinions of others will get your posts deleted and result in warnings and/ or banning from the forum
- 3/17/19 UPDATE -- We've updated the permissions for our "Football" and "Commit to the G" recruiting message boards. We aim to be the best free board out there and that has not changed. We do now ask that all of you good people register as a member of our forum in order to see the sugar that is falling from our skies, so to speak.

Comments
Pls downvote this comment
I do think that som people accidentally hit the downvote button while trying to hit the up vote button. I have done the same and caught it to change it
The king has returned
Upon further review, and now its 2 pages...
DV must have originally been set up as a disapprove/do not agree, as in -> no big deal. And the Flag was for serious matters.
I think that is how it should be used. Now if enough DVs merely shrink the comment down, then so be it. There is a flaw in the logic/human condition if a bunch of DVs gets a poster in trouble. Shouldn't work that way. Only a Flag should bring the wrath of khan on the poster.
So, everyone, please: LIGHTEN UP, FRANCIS If dire consequences occur as a result of this advice, then I plead guilty of caring, okay? You can charge me with GUILTY OF CARING. And that is all..

I was blessed to simply be a part of this historic event. Very humbling.
DV's worry me so much.......for each 1 I get I lose an hours sleep each night.....have not been sleeping much lately
Most irrelevant thread to date. Good lord!
, but the amount of down votes I see on some is ridicules. I joined the forum because I saw open minded DAWG fans enjoying healthy debates without their egos getting bruised. Now it seems this forum is starting to resemble the other sites in their pettiness. I'm not saying everything should be wrapped in bubble wrap and nobody touches the down vote, but be more objective. Trolls, other fans being extremely negative, and self promotions I feel is all warranted for down votes, flags, and off topics. If we are just debating and we are going back and forth save the down vote. Please don't turn this site into an ego fest. We are here for the DAWGS.
That's cool of you to say that... this group should be about positivity and only hating on anything in orange.
The only time I typically dv is when someone is being **** or abusive.
or is a troll from another team... like @jaynole81 or the guy from bama or the tools that come on during USCjr week... or FU week... etc
OU guys were pretty cool other than one guy talking smack about the big 12 being superior, but he even came back to give us respect
ND guys were the nicest ever... they gave parking tips and invited everyone to tailgates, lol
Lol... this was either m e a n or something silly
Lots of solutions here...may I suggest: THICKEN YOUR SKIN
I've never actually seen a forum where downvotes are supposed to be off-limits for just disagreeing. I think it stems from the notion that comments are upvoted or downvoted on merit. That might tend to be true, but it's far from it. So when someone gets a downvote they start coming up with reasons why it's wrong to have downvoted. Honestly, people are gonna disagree, and I don't think a downvote is that mean. It's whatever.
