Good day folks,
I'm a Computer Science student from the US. I'm a big fan of FOSS projects, games, and their respective moding comunities, though I myself havn't contributed much yet. I first got into doom some time in the early '00s through the shareware version, and a couple years later with a full version compilation disk which came with a doom 3 preview. Life then happened for the next decade, but I got back my enthusiasm for the game when a certain mod was introduced to me. (I think you know which one) Since then, I have moved on to everything else that the community has to offer.
And what an offering it is to behold! More than twenty years of maps, art, ingenuity and creativity. I finaly decided today was the day to make an account here (and on Doomworld) so that I can partake in the discussion. The other reason was so I can contribute to content that I like. It occured to me that over time, in various mods and such, I would encounter some small niggling thing that turned out to be easy to fix (like a simple syntax error or a misspelling) and I would fix it. Then, some time later, when I had forgotten about it and redownloaded the mod, the same error/s would be there, because I hadn't shared. Shame on me.
But enough about me. Have a great day folks.
