Hiya mate, welcome to USC and if you need any help don't hesitate to ask. I've only got one game from your list - Left 4 Dead so my gamertag is WarLokk1980 if you wanna add me. Hey there is a lot I would like to know about Native Americans and in particular the Dakota Tradition. Do you know of this?

welcome to the clan man, got an Q's dont hesitate to ask

To tell the truth, I'm WAY cut off from my heritage. My tribe is located in Michigan. Back in 64 my grandfather moved up to Alaska from there to work on the oil pipeline as a surveyor. We never went back. I get bits and pieces of what's going on in my tribe, but I never really got a ton of info on traditions and history becuase I'm so far away and my father never really cared to tell me anything.

You should make it your mission to find out your traditions and history. My family come from the carribean so I made it my personal mission to find out my roots and what I found was shocking. Most black people originate from Africa and were captured by slavers and sent to the carribean and other places to work on plantations. Many died due to mistreatment and malnurishment at the hands of their captors. Most black people belonged to the monotheistic faith, Islam and were converted to Christainity by the slavers. I know that your people were also monotheistic and were persecuted and suffered greatly at the hands of the colonists roughly 200 years ago. We should not forget these facts and commemorate the bravery of our peoples that fought and died to try and stamp out oppression. I think the world can learn a lot from history and we as human should strive to never make the same mistake twice.

I recently read a book entitled "Ishmael". It really made me realize all the mistakes humans have made in the past and continue to make today. Its an interesting read if you ever get the chance.

I used to live in Michigan. What part does your tribe live in?

Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan

Hey guys would it be possible to put what games we own in our profiles, that way we know what games are popular.

I put the games I have in my signature

I can make it so that that's an option to fill out rather than a signature if that sounds better.

That sounds better, but I'll go ahead and add my games to my sig for now.

That's much better if it's incorporated into our profile as I haven't much room left (I don't want a massive sig) If you do add this a good idea if you can incorporate it would be an [ADD GAME] button where you click it and it allows you to enter the name of your game and you repeat the process for all your games. As our profiles are public we can use them for game-matchmaking for non-included games even. That way we play as a clan more often. for now I'll just tell you what I own: L4D, GoW, COD:WaW, HoV, SF4
