And yes, that comment (or the whole discussion about "what Russia has to offer") has nothing to do about the subject of this thread.
You are a moderator?

Some people get it, some don't. See this to get a clue:

Doesn't matter how well you start out in political debate it never finishes well.

I see nothing wrong with the thread, as originally started. It was a response to a press report regarding 1C:Maddox. AS Oleg has now confirmed, the report was misleading, but we had a sensible enough discussion about the implications of the thread. The fact that some people used this as an excuse to indulge in idiotic trolling is no reason to delete the lot. I'd say edit out the trolls, ban them for a day or two, and let it stand. Not that I'm a moderator - or would want to be when people make postings like that.

Question

so, is everything about Russia wrong that is/was on the History channel?

also, curious... why don't other countries (other than the USA) have a history channel??
note: there is an International History channel I watch on Cable TV, and it's quite good..

"History - Channel" doesn't report history, "Hystory - Channel" makes history!

I doubt anyone that watches would necessarily dispute this.

However, it is better to have information out there... than none at all.

Most of what they show and explain is pretty well done.

Afterall, for viewers to enjoy TV even history has to get dressed up abit to do enough "horse and pony show" to keep viewers interested in history.

You could probably poll most students and find that history is boring... remembering all the stupid dates and such.

The history teachers seem to always focus on the details that people forget the fastest.

In Europe, England, Middle East, if you do any traveling you're looking at a life-size 3D history channel.

Well,History Channel is quite good for propaganda,but Hollywood still the best for this purpouse.
They can make the biggest historical fiasco to turn into a glorious and unique event.

They do, they're just not as notorious for rewriting history to favour their home countries. There's Yesterday, UKTV History and several more in the UK. There's quite a lot of history programmes on other British TV channels already. Don't know whether it's the same in the US.
