neubejiita Posted April 11, 2010 Is this Eric Harris? I noticed this background to the DoomWorld forums and I just wanted to ask. I know this is a sensitive topic, I am just wondering what the picture is. #EDIT Here is what I am seeing. http://bejiitas_wrath.tripod.com/harris.jpg 0 Share this post Link to post
AndrewB Posted April 11, 2010 That sure looks like one of the two dudes. I've never noticed this in the background. 0 Share this post Link to post
Craigs Posted April 11, 2010 Yeah that's one of the infamous pictures of them. I've never seen it on Doomworld before. 0 Share this post Link to post
Csonicgo Posted April 11, 2010 I bet this is a hack. No one here has that sick of a sense of humor. EDIT: it's listed in display options under "ummm..." for "monster". Who the hell did this? 0 Share this post Link to post
Aliotroph? Posted April 11, 2010 Is it bad that I find it extremely funny? 0 Share this post Link to post
GreyGhost Posted April 11, 2010 I'd seen it before but didn't make the connection. 0 Share this post Link to post
Dco16 Posted April 11, 2010 That's definitely a picture from a Columbine security camera, but I've never seen it before on the Doomworld banner. 0 Share this post Link to post
Ahcruna Posted April 11, 2010 Never seen it before. I do wonder what triggers it to pop up though. 0 Share this post Link to post

Sharessa Posted April 11, 2010 Huh, I've never seen that one before. Do you need some sort of alternate .css or something to see it? 0 Share this post Link to post
40oz Posted April 11, 2010 I've never seen that before. I like it there I think it is badass. AndrewB said:That sure looks like one of the two dudes. I've never noticed this in the background. Dylan Klebold is in the middle with the backwards hat, eric harris is far to the left. 0 Share this post Link to post
Whoo Posted April 11, 2010 I didn't see it in http://www.doomworld.com/images/, or in any of the sub-folders. 0 Share this post Link to post
Creaphis Posted April 11, 2010 Wow, what? Where are these "display options"? 0 Share this post Link to post

Bloodshedder Posted April 11, 2010 It's not in the list of things to appear randomly, but somehow it ended up in the display options. I don't know who put it there or when. 0 Share this post Link to post

Sporku Posted April 11, 2010 I've seen it before, a while back. And isn't that crudely drawn Doom guy from one of Eric Harris' notebooks that was posted on the internet in its entirety? 0 Share this post Link to post
myk Posted April 11, 2010 AgentSpork said: And isn't that crudely drawn Doom guy from one of Eric Harris' notebooks that was posted on the internet in its entirety? Yeah. It seems that the date of the files on the server is a few days after Harris' additional notebook material was released to the public back in July '06. Perhaps the header images were used along with the news entry here about that release, back then. 0 Share this post Link to post
Creaphis Posted April 11, 2010 Crazy. Also weird is now that I've switched my display to "ummm..." and back to random, I'm getting some Doom3-related header images I've never seen before. EDIT: I wish I'd known about the "Display options" before! Now my Doomworld is purty. 0 Share this post Link to post
the_lurker Posted April 11, 2010 am I the only one who finds this seriously not funny? FAKE EDIT: what am I talking about, this is hillarious 0 Share this post Link to post

Ninjalah Posted April 11, 2010 Well who owns this site anyway? Sure I could find it in under 30 seconds but I'm lazy... 0 Share this post Link to post
John Smith Posted April 12, 2010 Internet forum banners are serious business I guess. I'm siding with exp(x) though, the banner isn't particularly clever or funny though. 0 Share this post Link to post
Ninjalah Posted April 12, 2010 Uh, adding on to the "who actually owns this site" thing, is bloodshedder in charge of handling emails (complaints)? That's what comes up when "Contact Us" is clicked. Maybe we can ask him when/who/how this was ingrained into the site? 0 Share this post Link to post
