Man, I checked this thread manually today of all days.
I've mostly avoided the Doom "community" since the mid-2000s because it's always been full of stupid drama that seemed more and more pathetic as time went on, but I wind up lurking every few years whenever I get the itch to play new WADs. But like a lot of other communities I'm in or have interests in, they've developed fucking tumors that no one is willing to excise.
I'm not talking about transgenders in general: I'm talking about the ones who use that (or any other identity) as a fucking shield to deflect criticism. Nearly every god damn time, the ones that are the most obnoxious, hostile, and vitriolic turn out to be a sex pest and/or actual pedophile, not surprisingly in communities that attract children/underageb& like flies to shit. (Way to go for representation.)
Marisa (the magician, not Heit) and enablers: consider the damage you're doing to transgender acceptance. Fulfilling the prophecy of 1950's anti-gay propaganda is horrible optics. If you're worried about the safety of transgender people, you should think twice before trying to groom children.

Also, lol at the "ZDoom Discord Simulator" video.
It's not nearly as bad, at least in my opinion. Granted, I'm not that active.I'm not active in any of these communities, is Quake infested like Doom is, ?
Not exactly. Quake has a "modern remaster" that came out recently which performs like ass compared to the source ports that have existed for several years, and so the reddit /r/quake was invaded by a bunch of zoomers (I'm guessing, or they're really retarded adults) making daily posts about a "Quake Eternal" that they'd like to see happen.has it escaped the zoomers by not having a modern remake?
I haven't really touched anything but Crispy in years, but I'm pretty sure ZDoom or GZDoom copied that idtech3 splash screen/pre-game console thingy. I dunno what it's called exactly but I remember I thought it was kinda cool they did that.Now that I think about it, ZDoom stole quite a lot from Quake 2 in its early days.
