If you want to play jDOOM, play Quake 2.
Another one of those fucker's with no apreciation for advancment. What makes you different from that idiot who calls himself a "puritain doomer"?
First of all, orion, fuck you.
And now I'll answer your question.
I appreciate advancement, and unlike that jerk who calls himself "puritain doomer" I don't hate source ports, I like source ports. If I don't like some of them, it's not because I dislike the new features but for cosmetic reason or for the uselessness of some of the features.
JDOOM happens to be one port I like. It's really cool and it's a great job. But DOOM isn't about the graphics or sound, but about gameplay. All the cool features of JDOOM add little to the gameplay of the original DOOM, and if it's the graphics that attract a person, he may just as well play one of the many visually awesome games that have come out after DOOM and continue to come out non-stop. The majority of people who wouldn't play original DOOM, wouldn't play JDOOM too.
The whole point of DOOM is it being the evidence of an old, simple game, that even a 486 can run, can nevertheless be very fun. If you have a comp good enough to play JDOOM, it's great, if not, it is still not a big loss in terms of DOOMing.
