HIYA! I've been here a little over 2 months now, and I want to give a shout-out to those who I feel like welcomed me the MOST to the DOGO community. I would like to thank 13iamgroot, beachbreeze14, callie_b, natcat13, and last but not least sylvie55555 for bringing me into the DOGO community. I would also like to thank everybody for showing me around and helping me settle in. Thanks!

Thanks for the shoutout! I know we all love the questions and fun you bring to this club!

Thanks @chocolate168! We came on here about the same time, and you welcomed me too, you seemed so nice in the comments and I loved your book reviews so I followed you!
chocolate168 chocolate168

Thx so much for helping me with so many things on DOGO! LOVE YOUR REVIEW!
chocolate168 chocolate168

I have a question. If we all met each other in person, would we call each other by our real names, or by our DOGO usernames? I think if I saw, for example, applemango in person, I would still call her applemango.
shootingstars shootingstars

I would call you Chocolate.. I think.. Are those numbers random or is that a special number to you?
shootingstars shootingstars

I probably would call them by their usernames as well. xD
beachbreeze16 beachbreeze16

hmm..that's a good question! I guess some could be shortened, like mine could become BB or something like that :D lol
fosterkeefe fosterkeefe

I would shorten the usernames to make it nicknames and use that for everyone with their permission.
ghost_dk_diemx ghost_dk_diemx

If anyone called me by my username they would still be saying my name cause Ghost is my name- ;o ((the rest of my user is not tho))
olliebob olliebob

i'm pretty sure someone said this a rly long time ago but what if there was like a dogobooks convention thing and we could all meet and we would wear nametags w our dogo usernames on them and yeah anyway i just think that would be super cool
little_angel727 little_angel727

Cool, but what if we live too far away? (btw i live in south Korea)
olliebob olliebob

(first of all, that's super cool that u live in South Korea, what's it like?) idk how it would be done or where it would be. I suppose ppl from faraway could fly out or there could be like a few different meeting places, like one in Europe, one or two in North America and a couple in Asia, one in Australia, one in South America, and one in Africa. ig it would depend on how many users r in each country, my guess is the US has the most tho
shootingstars shootingstars

That would be amazing! I would love to meet all of you guys.
chocolate168 chocolate168

I know! I wish we could all meet each other!
pizzagirl7 pizzagirl7

I know!I wish I could meet u guys!
13iamgroot 13iamgroot

Such a good idea!!! We should ask the editor! ;)
13iamgroot 13iamgroot

Idk, I would probably have to get used to their real name first, and I would just ask them what they preferred, but some people have a lot of numbers in their usernames and it would be hard to be like, "Hey puppy123456789!" *just an example* :)
