Certain people whom I once had a huge amount of respect for have lost almost all of it since these insensitive, narrow minded, and often simply plain childish anti-KDIZD "comments" and so-called "jokes" started.
No other Doom project has ever had this much antagonism ranged against it, even though several projects have had just as much (or sometimes more) hype, and many people promoting their Doom add-ons have acted in a far more arrogant and egotistical manner than any of the KDIZD team members have shown.
Recently, some formerly great Doomworlders have been acting like they're completely incapable of feeling empathy or compassion towards their fellow human beings... and the only reasons I can think for this are negative: jealously, hatred of one or more KDIZD team members, gaining perverse pleasure from causing other people distress, and so on. No suprise there, of course; people rarely act in a negative fashion for positive reasons.
Whereas I once believed the Doomworld community to be one of the better internet gaming communities, that opinion has begun to drastically change with the actions of certain individuals. I'm starting to dislike the attitude of the "typical Doomworlder" to such an extent, that I'm seriously considering looking for another community to join instead. Prefferably where the average person is considerably more pleasant than so many of the people here, and where things like respect, compassion, understanding and general pleasantness are far more common than hatred, jealousy, spitefulness and sheer bloodymindedness.
A lot of Doomworlds really do need to let all these negative emotions go, and try to remember why we're all supposed to be here, editing and playing Doom in the first place: for FUN. For me it isn't so fun anymore, and unless that changes soon, and for the better, I'll be out of here.
