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.

1) How does one advance in "class" (Freshman, Soph., Grad, etc.) on this Forum? What are the criteria?
2) How do I change my user symbol? It defaults to some smiley face but I don't see any place to change it in my settings.
Comments
1) internet points
2) there is a little person with a drop down arrow next to your profile picture when you go to your profile. Click that and select edit profile. Then on the right hand side there should be an option to change your picture
Those who ask shall be permanently relegated to "Freshman" status. Sorry, dude.

Dang y'all are tough. Must be the off-season blues!
Thank you for responding.
1) How does one obtain "Internet points"? I'm not even sure what that means. I assumed originally that seniority was based on number of comments, but I've seen at least one person with fewer comments than me but who is a sophomore. As an aside, how do people such as yourself have so many comments (6000 or so)? That's thousands per year, right, if this started/was updated in 2018? I have commented for a long time on the AJC sites but whatever counting was done got lost when I had to update my login with the new system.
2) I did find the place to update the picture. I guess now I need to find a pic that doesn't violate the terms of service.Lol. Anything other than the pink smiley face that it defaulted to would probably be good!
It’s a combination of making posts, commenting, and getting upvotes
Ad an avatar?
Go to your profile page and scroll down to your screen name. On the right side of screen just above your name there should be an icon you can click on that gives you the option to edit profile. From there you can change your picture.
Help, how do I get the Forum back to a black background instead of the white one? I have no idea how it switched. Thanks.
Stick around... and then you just begin to pick the points up....
Never heard of this issue. See no where to switch back and forth from the default black. Maybe try logging out and logging back in, and maybe clean up cache and restart.....dunno.....
You can change your browser settings to override the system colors and force your choices instead.
Thanks, but there is something within the site that I can do to get back to the black backgrounds. I’ve done this before and there was something I could go to and change the setting back.
Omg, it's back on my phone. The other experience wasn't awful, but it was an uninteresting format. Thanks for all your hard work.
