FORUM GUIDELINES

Posting

Our forum is moderated, so posting will be frequent but not automatic. We try to post several times a week.

Maintain a Courteous Tone

We do not post messages that are overtly negative. Please maintain a respectful and courteous tone. Mahalo!

Stay on Topic

This is not a "chatty" forum. Try to stay "on topic." Remember, we are a music website. For questions on Hawaiian language or hula, check your favorite search engine.

Keep It Traditional

We are first and foremost a traditional Hawaiian music website. Try to keep things on the traditional side (we realize that these boundaries are not always clear).

Hall of Fame Forum

Welcome to our Talk Story place. E komo mai! Come in. Ask questions... Give answers... Share information about traditional Hawaiian music, its musicians, recordings, etc. We're all here to enrich each other in the Hawaiian spirit which is such an important part of the historical music of Hawaii.

Brief Rules

To minimize pilikia (trouble) this area is moderated, so posting will be frequent but not automatic. We do ask that you "keep it Hawaiian". The code of aloha is "you can say anything you want, so long as it hurts no living thing."

A hui hou? We hope so. We hope to hear from you... soon and often.
