I already knew about Multi-Quotes since day one (2018 2021? Haven't checked my old account), never got around to using as I never talked hence the Registered Lurker tag.

This is an old post of mine but I use it as a cautionary tale at times to tell people about what not to do when making a thread. You're more than welcome to look through it if you want.

Wads and mods section is a great sub-forum to check out on-going community projects, dev threads about wads, mapset discussions, or even music projects aswell. You can play-test, check out, discuss or even make maps.
Doom general is another sub-forum to discuss Doom in a more general term rather than just talking about wads.
If you are new to editing maps, feel free to ask any doubts you have at the Editing section.
The other pretty frequent section is "Everything else" where we kind off relate to other people in an offtopic sub-forum, talking about, you know, everything else.

Discord servers are mostly for stream communities or wad projects, I don't think there are many public Discords of Doomworld users so far.

Other forums that talk about Doom? None that I care, welcome to Doomworld, the biggest one in terms of specially talking about Doom, feel free to do whatever is inside the Terms of Service and meet people online.

The community is always active, depends of the time of the year, sometimes the forum is pretty quiet, but never dead, and I must say, right now is at one of those historic peaks in terms of active members because of MyHouse.wad, so don't worry, every single year new things come from here.

I myself found out about Doom community thanks to Myhouse. I rarely get hyped about something, but before this, I was not aware, how serious progress Doom modders had made since 1993. The gulf between Doom II and, for example, Total Chaos, is fascinating and makes me wish to know more about how did it come to this.

It does.

If you really, really want to know, just PM me instead. This thread doesn't need to draw attention to it.

EDIT:

Please take your attempts at drama elsewhere, preferably the theatre.

I think resurrecting old drama isn't worth it. I doubt something positive awaits me there. But thank you

I don't get it XD.
Why would you ask Doom community, if you should install steam?
And what exactly should I look at?

The posts I made there, if you look for a bit, you'll see that my IQ steadly decreases with each post I make there leading to somebody making a steamed hams shitpost about the thread if I recall correctly, I remember asking to get the thread locked because it was an absolute crapshoot lmfao

 

Anyways, how's your saturday been?

 

I'm also just a dumbass, If you couldn't already tell from my custom title 8^)

It was funny to read, not gonna lie.
I am a college student, so my Saturday was pretty busy with studies, but during (very limited) free time I was mostly messing with Doom settings and mods.
I like to record my gameplay sessions and upload on youtube (it's not like I am a wannabe youtuber. It's just a way for me to document, what am I wasting my youth for) so I was looking for a way to minimize lag and still be able to see, what's happening on the screen.
Also, this thread gave me a lot of information to process, so I am slowly crawling through the links and names given.
How did you get a custom title, by the way?
