Welcome to the Native American Forum. Enjoy yourself while you are here, but, please be respectful of others. There will be no profanity, offensive jokes or criticism of others allowed in this forum. Please be aware that the forum is for people of all ages so enter writings that can be viewed by anyone without them getting hurt or angry.
I welcome all viewers/posters regardless of your culture and beliefs. You do not have to be of Native American descent to post in this forum - as long as you follow the rules and respect all others here you are welcome to view all threads (posts), reply to other posts or begin your own thread.
Please read my "Forum Rules" if you have any questions.
Posting off-topic presents some problems:
1. The original purpose, question, subject matter of a post can be lost if you post something that has nothing to do with the original title subject/question because it pulls the discussion in a new direction.
2. Your new post that is on a different subject can be lost/buried under a completely different title.
3.New people coming in to look for a subject may be looking for something that is buried within an unrelated title, therefore cannot find what they are looking for.
Please, do not post off-topic. Since I have had to remind the same person a few times already, I thought maybe I should send out a message to all on this matter.
I have my Forum Rules to guide you and BellaOnline has some Forum Guidelines and terms of use, etc., for you to read :

Posting off-topic in threads:Please do not post in a thread if your message does not follow the original topic in the thread.
