This forum has, and still is, giving people free reign to spout hateful rhetoric as they please; openly stated opinions or snidely sprinkling it around in all corners of this board. Homophobia, transphobia, disparage of the mentally ill, politics, wordsalads of insanity, regurgitated Doomworld hate, petty baby lying about ban reasons, spam and slurs of all kinds abound. I always wondered why it was allowed to exist. Why people like dn, Xeep, Vordakk, Tainted Slav, Deathclaw886, Kontra, Mayhem, Shibainumaster etc. were allowed to splurge so prolifically without moderation Did you know that Doom forums are about the game DooM (1993) and having a casual chat? Everyone doesn't need to conform to whatever perverse insanity they're pushing this week.

Three of those quotes on the first page are from me, and one is Xeep talking to me. I stand by what I said: you're a narcissist who thinks that managing a small fucking video game forum is some act of martyrdom, acting like having to read the posts here everyday is some deep torture for your soul. The fact that you place such importance on a forum where your moderation consists of doing jack shit is goddamn stupid, you need to see a therapist. You should be the one with the Jesus avatar, because you act like a poor man's internet Christ. You aren't that important, neither is this forum. You aren't a moderator, you don't moderate anything. All you do is act like an emo teenager peddling thoughts of torment that are only deep to yourself. Instead of cutting yourself, you sit there and absorb the deep hatred of your fellow netizens. Put the proverbial razor down and actually do something other than having these pseudo-intellectual whining sessions. It's embarrassing to read. Discord has nothing to do with it, the fact that you think so is flat out ridiculous.
The reason your forum sucks and causes you the kind of pain that can only be expressed with your favorite Linkin Park song is because you have a forum whose regular patrons consists of a kid obsessed with his limp dick, a dude who wants everyone to know he hates Arlene and has a Kiwi Farms account, an incomprehensible troll who has a daddy fetish for you that you loved to reciprocate, various people who hate transgender people even though they occupy half their mind, a guy who actually thinks he can change the minds of people who hate transgender people, the schizo manchild who keeps forgetting his meds, and a leader with a God complex who has no fucking idea how to lead anything. Oh, and the lurkers who only come here to laugh at you and wonder what the fuck is wrong with you, making bets on how many years it's going to take for you to get a life. Or at least a therapist. There's a recurring theme here - almost nobody likes you. You'd understand why if you didn't have your head so far up your ass.
If an internet forum like this that you control is a source of such strife and causes you so much deep pain and confusion, you're pretty fucking whacked in the head. You got a ban button right there, use it instead of jerking off to your own self-made sorrow while everyone watches. I know it will cause so many conflicting thoughts in your head, and you might not sleep for a week, but you'll get the fuck over it. You can practice with me if you want. I'll still lurk here every now and then when I'm having a bad day so I can look at you and say "at least I'm not that guy", so don't feel bad.

Why people like dn, Xeep, Vordakk, Tainted Slav, Deathclaw886, Kontra, Mayhem, Shibainumaster etc. were allowed to splurge so prolifically without moderation, and so profusely color the impression of this board to all that visit and make it an absolutely miserable place both to be in and to try and make sense of. Xeep is like the least offensive member on these boards. I would find more offense in getting a pickled cucumber on top of my burger than I would from the average Xeep post. As for "allowed to exist"... last I checked, I don't need permission for that. Sure, DB could demand that we all run our thoughts through a ideological purity filter prior to posting, excommunicating those who refuse to comply. That's how this place came into existence in the first place, as diaspora from a certain website that did exactly that. Where would the poor shriven masses go, once dispossessed of their home for a second time? Think they'd just stop "existing?" Or you think maybe they'd hit the chans, where bad language, disrespect & casual cynicism would finally give way to actual honest-to-christ radicalization?

When telling you directly fails and they resort to other methods as a wake up call and plea to you, you loser (and then ban) some of them. ??? What is this in reference to? I fail to recollect a time where I have ever seen you give an honest reply to honest feedback, instead always ignoring the point at hand and deflecting to other, to you, more interesting or important subjects. ??? What is this in reference to? That is my feedback. I can only advocate (here comes the "solution" you clamor so much for in other replies when people give feedback) for much, much, MUCH harsher moderation on every aforementioned issue. Feel free to do with this feedback as you will, it is just my parting message after all. Checking the facts here, I reviewed your entire 38 post history to check for feedback I must have missed, and you've never mentioned anything once. No reported posts, no questions about this forum, no comments about the forum at all. You don't make any threads, you don't contribute to the doom discussions that are here, not even in any places where described vile shit isn't taking place. You've only used the forum for the project and have been openly friendly and cordial about it the whole time. But today is the day you castigate everything else here without doing anything about it, and then point your finger at me like I'm supposed to somehow know your opinion on it without ever disclosing it. You're parroting the attitudes of the people on the discord and leaving. Making demands for how this forum is supposed to run when you say in your own post that you never wanted this forum in the first place, you wanted to use me for my resources and then spit in my face on the way out. Glad you got what you fucking wanted. Discord has absolutely nothing to do with the state of this place or its community. please.

Discord has absolutely nothing to do with the state of this place or its community. There is no way around it: Quite frankly and openly to your face, the cause has always in my view been you, 40oz , solely in your role as administrator/moderator. This forum has, and still is, giving people free reign to spout hateful rhetoric as they please; openly stated opinions or snidely sprinkling it around in all corners of this board. Homophobia, transphobia, disparage of the mentally ill, politics, wordsalads of insanity, regurgitated Doomworld hate, petty baby lying about ban reasons, spam and slurs of all kinds abound. I always wondered why it was allowed to exist.

That is my feedback. I can only advocate (here comes the "(FINAL solution" you clamor so much for in other replies when people give feedback) for much, much, MUCH harsher moderation on every aforementioned issue. Feel free to do with this feedback as you will, it is just my parting message after all. The time has come to crush these sub-humans, HEIL!

As for the topic in question, I'm not sure what to say. I was invited to some channel by Glen back in the day (not sure if it's the same one still) but I prefer forum interaction over a chat so not much came of it. As such I haven't seen myself what goes on in the current channel. I do recall that there were speculations about you, 40oz even back in 2017, and I'm not entirely sure why that was. You seem a bit aloof in conversations some times, maybe that's why? It is also my understanding that when you came back after a long absence and reclaimed ownership of the DBPs all the participants weren't thrilled. (i.e. the mapping gym mentality vs. what it had become when you were gone). I also know people were annoyed that you let mayhemic spree-post for a while. I think I get what you were/are going for but I thought it was pretty annoying too, to check new threads only to see some throwaway response. In x number of places at once. Anyway, these things build up after a while so maybe that's why they were venting their grievances. Or maybe they're just two-faced faggots. Drama is everywhere on the internet and part of the charm. Don't let it get to you 40!

What is this in reference to? [about "honest replies to honest feedback"] To be fair I know what he's talking about and I can think of a few examples. One that sticks out in my memory is the whole chimp-out about keeping the mapping workshop and DBP forums closed. The thread kept piling up with dissatisfied members and you barely addressed the subject at all, instead talking about very loosely related things. I don't think you ever made a post about your reasoning, you just ignored (or even locked?) the whole thread. I believe there were at least a couple of other cases like that, but the mapping workshop one is the one I remember right now.

I'm absolutely sure that discord has to do with it because these feelings always arise before the time I find out this platform is getting traction. - feeling very alone in my own community- feeling very confused about people's reactions to things - feeling a need to be very cautious and tactful about what I talk about because of said reactions - feeling like my messages aren't even being read - reading posts that feel like responses to things I didn't actually write Sorry to hear you feel this way. I think morale's been kind of low across the board for a while now, hopefully things will improve in the future. It's a bit distressing to know that this is affecting you as well. For what it's worth, feel free to reach out to me if you ever want to chat about anything or want me to lend you an ear.

I spent a stupid amount of time writing this thread topic and it's really annoying to see so many people avoid the subject all together. Oh, please, nobody's ignore you or anything. People simply speak their mind, you know... Just so you know it's not Discord that is a problem here, my guy, it's the fact that: 1. This place is legit isolated from newcomers, either through bad PR by our fellow doomworld snitches bitches users and moderators\admins that don't want to see a competition to their heir. Simply as. OR, the fact that the workshop section have been hidden from the eyes of lurkers which, by any means, would might have been interested in the next project's theme, and register, participate. See what I mean? 2. At the first age, at the first day of this forum existing DB got branded as the place for outcasts such as we all here, including you, thus proving the brand\title\taint was a reason to come up in the light 3. Well, we live in very idiotic times when schism among human beings reaches quite a massive treshold and IRL and politics shenanigans are get a way into community places, if not by users them jannies and site owners do so. GZDoom and their unhealthy fixation on lgbtqpnz+++ rhetorics and pushing it right at the doorstep (specifically when you plan to enter discord server you're being met by rainbow colored logo that, on its own, is already pushing back some people that still not feel warm about queers and transgenders) aas the most notorious example of such shit going on and why this plague is should be called approprietly. 4. Overall, as I would never stop mention that all the time some wicked shit happens, people in their nature are retarded and higly chaotic animals have got consciousness either by mistake or deliberate way of evolution that, unironically, after tens of thousands years of Homo Sapient exist, now backfires at us because *insert current society decline in X country speech*. You don't like having drama here and that's understandable, but as long as there are people that don't have hivemind-like mentality and follow one way of thought (like Doomworld does en masse, yep), there will be conflict of ideas, interests, points of views, etc. and drama is a part of the cycle that you can't surge out from the chain link by any means. --- Now to the post that got my interest I signed up here because I like mapping, and wanted to try out a different flavor of community project from what I had previously been used to participating in. The DBP format seemed interesting to me, and as I found out, it really did suit me. I have since participated in three DBPs. On its own in isolation, I have enjoyed participating. Mapping, receiving feedback, giving feedback, testing. There was then a sense of accomplishment after the releases, seeing people in lots of places enjoy the products as a whole, knowing I had a hand in some part of it. A very honorable deed to sign up here and contribute to great idea of a project that keep on delivery a quality content. I mean it. The things going on in this forum, the absolutely vile shit that has been said (and is being said) here by even viler people makes me regret ever signing up as a member in the first place and even associating with this place. I always wondered why it was allowed to exist. Why people like dn, Xeep, Vordakk, Tainted Slav, Deathclaw886, Kontra, Mayhem, Shibainumaster etc. were allowed to splurge so prolifically without moderation Okay, first of, I'm not a vile person you cunt. Just because I let myself tell what I really feel\think doesn't make me vile. Saying that having principle of being yourself is somehow "vile" is just sound like Doomworld soyjacks\jannies. I despise such people for good reasons, just as much as some of them despise me, both for my honest opinion on modern day affairs with the pointing out that we deserve Hell be called upon all of us for how sick the mankind have essentially become AND for absolutely untrue and rather slander-tier shit. I got used to it and often ignore such things happening because I know a simple truth: the only person I can change is myself, and nobody else, and I sure as fuck not gonna pander to delusions of some group of intellectually questionable cunts whining about "insert the current thing" and that I, for whatever reason, MUST OBEY AND FOLLOW. No, thank you, I'd rather not. This forum has, and still is, giving people free reign to spout hateful rhetoric as they please; openly stated opinions or snidely sprinkling it around in all corners of this board. Correct me if I'm wrong here (probably not), but... are you suggest that speaking our minds in the open is somewhat a crime and should be forbidden, punished for happening to be? Because by the look of it you imply exactly this and that's DW's kulkidz\GZD handlers rhetoric, which is basically the voice of left leaning governments ie democrats in USA, trudeau's cuck party, etc. Homophobia, transphobia, disparage of the mentally ill, politics, wordsalads of insanity, regurgitated Doomworld hate, petty baby lying about ban reasons, spam and slurs of all kinds abound. Unlike the "stunning and brave" caste of XYZ challenged degenerates I don't have to lie to myself that IF I do A, B and C my life will miracously get better because I will be a new man, somehow. No, it will not get better, and this "new" will be jast a sick, wicked masquerade gone too far. Yeah sure call me transphobic because of this but I spell what's essentially and realistically true. Ignore or deny, it will not change the actual state of things. That's first. Second, whatever you like it or not but: 1. There always will be people that are homophobic, mainly because homoseuality is against their life staples and the ways of their social mentality compass (like in my case although I know some gays IRL, even worked with a bunch and can confirm they were whining spoiled brats) 2. There always will be people that are transphobic because no healthy people would suggest to themselves "boy oh boy, I don't think it was fair that I was born X instead of Y!". That's just a demonstration of illness to them, again because of transgenderism is against their life staples and the ways of their social mentality compass. I wouldn't have been so harsh on these petty meatsacks if I was not aware of what kind of crimes the trans people do perform mostly (spoiler: rape, and not only of full legal age human beings) and what utterly atrocious agenda they push. Do you really want me to believe that 5 year old Bobby would understand the context of gender dysphoria and feel himself to be actually trans? No, he can't, he's just a goddamn KID, he don't know shit neither should to, according to his age. BUT THEY (trans) WANT HIM TO, DUH. Also google "egg hatching" term in trans "language" for get better understanding why am I so highly negative of this kind of human beings. 3. Politics, like it or not were always a part of communities, nor necessarily IRL ones though. The desire to get rid of this shit from your hugbox is understandable and goood and shit, but, like I said, people are retarded and they WILL bring politics in either way. It's just how it always works. 4. Can't say much on wordsalads, we all have moments of skitzo, that's not something that can't happen to anyone of us. 40oz with this thread or Kontra's mumbling regarding DBP48' negrating are the most obvious examples. 5. I don't dislike Doomworld. I just dislike the people that are in control of it and the policies they push on userbase. 6. Shiba, I think he mentioned you. 7. Spam happens, it's a norm of internet. Bad one. 8. Slurs of all kinds you say... I haven't seen any racial, or hard R one. Dude... I always wondered why it was allowed to exist. I, for one, just like you, am contributing something to DB projects from time to time. I ain't mapper I used to be (and even them my maps were meh, that's true and I don't deny it), but I do art pieces for it. I'm still there because although I don't want to stick around most of the Doom community places I still have to hang around some small pockets like this forum, Russian Doom Community site or that Doom thread on Kiwi Farms. Also, because I'm not a deceitful and always pretending cunt, I let myself to speak my mind and be honest with people. That's why I'm still here: honesty, transparency and paintbrush. Some misplaced sense of loyalty to founding members? Lol, I never was a founding member. To be honest I have had to think Doomer Boards Projcts are, essentially, somewhat of 4chan things. Well, I was wrong and have been there since 2020. The reason your forum sucks and causes you the kind of pain that can only be expressed with your favorite Linkin Park song is because you have a forum whose regular patrons consists of a kid obsessed with his limp dick, a dude who wants everyone to know he hates Arlene and has a Kiwi Farms account, Quite reach coming from you. Also, what's so wrong in hating a certain person that have threw pedophilia slander at you? Nothing. Also beating the shit out from such people like her is the God's blessing that he have left us before his presumed death from cringe caused by witness what we, as species, have become. Also also, hey, admitting I visit New Zealand agrarian forum and participate in some of activities here is not a crime, neither participating in their activities is.

Did you know that Doom forums are about the game DooM (1993) and having a casual chat? I find it adorable that the people on the doom forum that's the least about doom are the ones who can't shut up about "we just care about doom man... this forum is only about doom!" when even themselves know that's a blatant lie at best.

I didn't know this forum was about something other than what I said. I originally came here for more DooM and less bullshit, and so far I'm not disappointed.
Is it an agenda these days, to not have an agenda (other than free speech)?

You saw right through our facade. Fawty pack it up, they got us. And we thought we were slick by calling the forum HitlerBoards. That's what we're all here for, because we're terrible people who only want to talk about how much we hate black people and other minorities. Suck my (content removed).

People on discord congregate and use it as a group chat to spectate on forums and add in a lot of speculative content about everything that goes unsaid on it without meaningfully participating in the conversations that are actually here. It is its own community among the doomer boards community; keepers of information about what's really happening with doomer boards. And whatever drama manifests there somehow spills onto my forum in unpredictable ways. Using only the speech I can read on this forum, it never makes sense why people are so jaded. But whenever I call it out, a coordination of people will post at me here on the forum about how I must be the one that's losing my mind. But I guess blaming chat rooms (which have been around since, what, 1993?) is easier than actually doing any self reflection. imagine sounding like a lunatic online and still scratching your head over why people dislike being around you but discords fill a void that forums cannot. Discord has absolutely nothing to do with the state of this place or its community. Just so you know it's not Discord that is a problem here, my guy,

40oz This will be my last post here. I'm also deleting my account. I've always given you the benefit of the doubt. Defended you and the DBPs. I almost got banned on DW for defending your right to critize Romero when One Humanity was released, even if I disagreed with you. When I first joined the community, you were kind and constructive on Facebook, giving me some great feedback on my first real WAD. Thank you for that. But the last few months have been terrible. I don't know what's going on in your personal life, or how that has influenced your choices here, nor is that my business. However, I don't understand what you think you owe Kontra Kommando that you allowed him to run DBP48, despite the blowout in the rest of the community. I don't understand your need to antagonize and ban Joe-Ilya, and to antagonize so many members of this community will not opposing the toxicity that has made this place unbearable. Yes, I talk shit about DB (while defending the DBPs and you) on discord. Rightfully so. There are a few characters here that turn this place into a joke - and you do nothing to oppose them. I don't want to make this personal. I don't know what has made you this bitter and paranoid lately, but I suspect stuff outside this forum and community. It's not healthy. I advise you to take a step back and spend time doing other things. Don't feel like you need to put out a DBP every month. Spend time with family or friends. Do some reflection. I wish you the best. - Pistoolkip

Originally I was just going to leave my last post be the last thing I posted here. I always thought the people here were rather funny with the whole ritual of deleting accounts. However, if we're going to make personal declarations about why exactly we're peacing out, then I suppose I should follow along. When in Rome... Something very interesting comes to light when you look at the previous DBPs. You start to notice a pattern: names show up, deliver consistent high-quality stuff for a few months, and disappear without a trace. Now of course there's some names that have stuck around for a while like cuppykek or lunch or even joe-ilya (ripperoni), but on the whole the DBP as an institution suffers from some serious churn. Now, I can't really say why all of these people left, and of course naturally people are going to come and go as they please. But given that there's this recent blow-up of what seems to be long-standing, deep-rooted issues with how this place is run, I can only assume that a huge part of that churn has to do with people showing up to participate in the incredible ongoing project you have going on, spending a little time, finding out just how deep the rot is here, and backing out never to be seen again. I don't know exactly how many people left or whether or not they said anything about what's happening (not like saying anything would do jack shit; it's clear by now that you are incapable of internalizing any sort of criticism), but I'd hazard a guess that if the rate of people leaving the community over time was at normal levels because the same five or six shithead rightoid losers who don't even care about or play Doom anymore weren't constantly dumping their ass at all times, your average monthly DBP in 2022 would be a 32-map megawad with custom graphics, sounds, enemies, music, the works. We'd be out here making whole-ass total conversions. Every month. We'd be a fucking unstoppable juggernaut of classic Doom content. This place would be such hot shit that it'd be impossible to ignore. But we can't have that. What I find really interesting was, earlier in the thread, you posed the question "what do we do to improve doomer boards' image?", as if the image of Doomer Boards was really what's at stake here. We both know this is a non-starter; you could literally implement Doomworld's moderation style, posting habits, population, etc. down to a T, and certain people over there would still assert that this place is fundamentally evil over some bullshit drama from years ago. No, the problem was never about image, it was about demonstrating a basic level of respect for people. Many, many people in the Doom community are LGBT or have people close to them who are LGBT; you've openly acknowledged the background radiation of anti-LGBT sentiment (among other forms of bigotry) in this place and how is it driving away LGBT people, which I dare to assume means you understand that this is an issue; yet you have done nothing about it. You ask us why we're not posting in this forum and are spending our time in discord. Well, can you fucking blame us? Why should we be expected to spend my leisure time socializing with people who are openly advocating to kill me and my friends? Why do we need to play babysitter for a 15 year old who is clearly developmentally disabled and shouldn't be on the Internet at all, let alone in a forum as raunchy and unmoderated as this one? Why is it on us to break bread with pathetic fuckers who are trapped, Bill Murray in Groundhog Day style, in PTSD flashbacks over the time a woman on Doomworld told them to fuck off? You act as if Joe Ilya's discord (of which you were always welcome in, and Joe has openly stated that, before everything blew up, he would've happily handed admin rights over to you) is the nexus of some kind of insurrection threatening to rip your forum asunder. The fact of the matter is is that this rift has existed for a very long time. On one side, you have a revolving door of incredibly awesome, talented creators who want to jam out together and make cool shit for everybody to enjoy. On the other side, you have a handful of pathetic, whiny fucking losers who, when given the very environment they seem to want (a place where they can say the most vile shit they want without consequence or even criticism), still find a way to act like babies with soiled diapers. One side sticks around and decides to do their own thing until they A) can't stand the cognitive dissonance anymore or B) get pushed out, by you, for daring to criticize the other. And I guess that brings it to me. You made this thread because you found a place where people were posting about their discontent with the direction this place is run, and instead of actually talking to us there, you decided to make it about a deep-seated conspiracy to destroy the community out from under you. Even if I didn't respond and "tell on myself" (read: make myself loud and fucking clear, like you wanted), you'd still target me because I had already made the mistake several times of voicing my dissatisfaction with certain people on this site. You've decided that I'm now an Enemy, and it would be impossible for me to disabuse you of this notion. Even if I approached you, hat-in-hand, tail between my legs, profusely apologizing for ever questioning your decisions or going behind your back, you would be scrutinizing literally every action I took and seeking reasons to get rid of me. We don't have time for that shit. We don't have time to grin and bear a half-dozen sore-winner waste-of-carbon burnout failures who are medically incapable of behavior approaching a kind, empathetic human being; failures who, for whatever reason, you have decided deserve to stay here more than everyone else. We don't have time to have our every word and movement scrutinized by a man who is dead-set on finding every excuse for this place's toxicity that isn't himself. We don't have time to spend contributing our time, effort, blood, sweat, and tears toward a project just to have us called homewreckers. So we're fucking off. Thankfully unlike some people we don't need to spin up a new proboard, because Doom Universe exists, and Doom Central will exist soon afterwards. My only suggestion is that, to people like pixelfiend and matador who might not be in the loop on all of this shit, to reconsider spending your time here and instead move on to somewhere nicer, where you don't have to feel ashamed to log in. We're gonna do our own things, make our own cool shit, and hit that point where we make 32-map megawad total conversions on a monthly basis ourselves. - Segfault
