Thank you everyone who decided to check this forum out. I realize this is very shaky moment in Doom Community history. I appreciate everyone's cooperation in holding it together during these trying times.
With respect to the old guard of this forum, I just want to let everyone know that moderation is gonna be a little more vigilant at this time of emergency. I advise everyone to be on the lookout, be nice to our new members, don't feed the trolls, and most importantly, keep your cool.
I love all of you.

^A very brief summary:
>Post on Doomworld about Doomer Boards.
>Everyone from Doomer Boards is a nazi.
>Doomworld is love.
>Some people got triggered.
>Enter the dingleberry.
>The dingleberry apologizes.
>Turns out dingleberry was the demons.
>And then dingleberry was a zombie.

40oz posted a thread on doomworld inviting people here, and the usual suspects entered the thread labeling everyone here doomworld rejects or nazi scum...some fuckhole named Strawberry made an account here to call all of us pigs, and then changed his name to Dingleberry and blamed a mod here...and then after we all let Strawberry know our opinions, he apologized, deleted his posts, and hasn't said much since then.

It's a lot of overblown nonsense. Many of Doomworld's most vocal users seem to believe that the internet is a controlled place and that there are (or at the very least, should be) limits on what topics you should be able to discuss on a forum. They are right that there are limits, many of which I certainly agree with, but they are far below the threshold in which they have been conditioned to believe. Doomer Boards is a place for Doomers to go where Doomworld's rules and jurisdiction doesn't apply.
We now have a very complicated relationship with Doomworld and its members, mostly due to the forum human resources activists responding to it in such a manner that would promote the belief that I'm alt-right, misogynist, fascist, racist, and a white supremacist, and that anyone like me is not welcome on Doomworld.
I shouldn't need to tell you that is all untrue. It's no coincidence that the people making these public accusations have also never attempted to have a conversation with me before announcing they knew what all the skeletons in my closet are. So there's a pretty obvious problem (at least to me,) of dishonesty over there.

Ah, damn, DoomWorld was such a cool place... I still think it is, but, as others have noted, there is seemingly little room for interesting discussion any more. I've read Doomworld on a daily basis for years now, and I'm not too happy with the current direction. Too much clownhaired bullshit, too little WAD-making. |
