To start, I have documented Native American ancestry, and family on the rolls.

Years ago, several members of this forum wanted to tell me all about their "CHEROKEE PRINCESS" grandmother.

I informed them that there is no such thing as a cherokee princess, and that most likely, they do not have any Native American Ancestry.

To my shock and horror, A gang of lindaland users, lead by a member named PIDAUA, jumped on me like a pack of wolves SCREAMING that I was a "RACIST!!!" for telling them they were not Native Americans.

I received an email from the forum owner himself - calling me a "racist" and officially BANNING me from this forum!

I responded to him that it was not racist to tell white people, they were white - but it is racist to falsely claim Native American ancestry.

I am coming back now - years after the ELIZABETH WARREN debacle to say I hope those member and the forum owner have all learned a lesson.

I also learned this user PIDAUA stood accused in other posts of bullying several other members, but because she was 'in good' with the forum owner, her bully behavior was allowed.

Anyway, the whole experience left such a bad taste in my mouth I am unlikely to ever visit this forum again.
