- 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.

Sophmore?

Now that I am a newly-minted sophomore, can someone tell me why the official designation is misspelled, and remains uncorrected after all this time? I ran a search of old threads and couldn't find that this topic has ever been discussed. Maybe I missed it. As is, I can't figure out why DawgNation would leave it the way it is. Hopefully somebody can straighten me out. Thanks.

    Nice catch. Should be fixed before we get compared to our more “rural”cousins.

    Thanks. As a former English major I can't help it. I never correct spelling or grammar in the posts because that's obnoxious, but it's entirely different having the site itself with a mistake like this that appears on screen a thousand times each day.

    @SavageDawg17 - do you know how to get this resolved? Or who to ask? It's a simple fix and should take about 30 seconds to do. Then we can go back to talking football!

    I am slowly learning to fight the urge to correct spelling and am improving.

    Sorry but I don't have any control over that - it's something internal within the message board itself I guess.

    Apparently BigDawg747 is also having trouble posting. He can still downvote me though lol. He sent me a rather crappy message telling me to go back to my parents’ basement or something to that effect but did say he’s unable to post so I’m trying to not be a dick and let someone know.

    Hopefully you responded with "Go back!? Just where do you think I'm posting from right now!?"

    I wish my parents had a basement! Actually my mom and I would kill each other if we spent too much time together. Plus I wouldn’t want to be in her house when the NSA comes looking for me lol.
