Hi group,
May seem like a strange topic, but why after so many people, who come up with a idea for a alternative timeline get criticized by people saying that it would happen. I always thought that is the point of alternative history, stranger things have happened in history. If we are not open to ideas then why are you on this site?
If someone writes a time line about, say for example no Russian Civil war, and has taken time to do all the research, why do people reply that is was bound to happen because of such and such a reason?
I just thing it is strange that a interest I enjoy is changed by people who should be discussing stuff on a historical site and not this one.
If I did a idea of the BEF landing in Serbia, which might of happened, who’s do say it wouldn’t because of such and such reason, we should be talking about the consequences of such a action
Remember it is What if, not what happened for such a reason.
Simon
