There are a decent number of knowledgable people in their respective fields active on the site, and they will happily engage new members, answer questions and stimulate lively discussion. A very broad range of subjects are continually discussed there, from pre-history to the 1980's, from Europe to Asia, Africa and the Americas. Military history, architecture, art, archaeology, linguistics, etc. There are also regular essay competitions. History subjects tend to attract a steady flow of bonafide nutters, but the moderation team deals with them quite efficiently. At first, the moderation might seem a little heavy handed at times, but in my time there, I've learnt to give them the benefit of doubt. The rules are clear, and anybody that repeatedly brings up modern politics, genetics, insults fellow forum members or is proselytizing will face sanction. It won't take long before you understand why these subjects are off-limits. People who have a genuine interest in history will enjoy the site. Personally I've learnt a lot there. And I haven't come across any other history forums that engenders such productive discussions.

Like so many discussion sites on the Net, which are only as good as the moderation–this one seems to me to exist so that the control freaks who run it can ban people for any and all reasons that they can dream up. Posters, even those who know the subjects well, are booted off temporarily or permanently for giving their opinions about other posters–while the moderators can publicly say what they like about the posters with impunity. As the moderators also participate in the discussions and get into disagreements with other posters, you can see where they might not be able to act without prejudice at all times. A bona fide science, microbiology. Is a taboo subject. I got permanently banned for suggesting that, since Historum uses an American-based server, they should probably show more respect to Freedom of Speech. Yet a "moderator" repeatedly allowed one of his friends to disrespect me without comment or intervention. My advice is stay away from this forum unless you love being unfairly censored or treated.

Other than one touchy slightly brain-struck mod on matters modern politics, the site offers a lot of insight and good commentary.

Fun site and a bunch of interesting comments. Several posters and one mod are somewhat tender. Just step away when they get silly.

Otherwise it's Censor City.
I just had a thread removed that cited only:
Pew Poll
Gallup Poll (via Guardian)
The Australian
BBC
because it shed Islam in an unfavorable light.
That's all it takes on Pistorum.com.
Thread removed, indefinite suspension (up from initial 3 day)

Pretty much very Juvenile discussion in any case.
The board is filled with Revisionist History
You've probably seen it and the like.
'Afro-centric' B.A.'s telling you they Built the Pyramids, invented the Radio,Tennis Racket, and lived in High Civilization before Greece, Rome, etc.
