What's good about brutal doom is the fact that you can play it with a lot of other WADs to add more blood and different ways to kill monsters. Although a really good WAD would add that kind of stuff anyway. I guess I just like it cuz it makes everything more bloody. ye blood and gore totally makes it up for the huge lack of gameplay and lack of proper balancing. Other examples include, blood effects that have the potential to lag the game, with the Spider Mastermind having 12,000 health while the Cyberdemon still has 4,000. The code is a complete mess which is why you still have bugs in Brutal Doom which is also guaranteed in v20, to increasing the height and radius of some of the stronger monsters, which automatically makes certain mapsets unplayable.

What would be better is if the good parts of brutal doom (more effects, much blood etc) were bunged into a seperate WAD which could be played without altering the player too much, so it could be played with any WAD. Also, yes, the lagging is definately a problem. Maybe using sprites for blood effects more often than particles might help.

Yeah, that could do with improvement. It's almost like the archvile terry traps.

I thought I take some of the most noteworthy posts from both General Rainbow Bacon and Brad_tilf and just reply to them. First starting off with Brad_tilf: I had actually noticed this trend recently and basically just passed them off as garbage but it appears to be a new trend which is a real shame. You're just now noticing this? It's been going on for at least two months now. Well, it looks like they're doing something - those trapwarning .txt files are helpful - lets you know right away to stay away from it. Yeah you think? You will still download them anyways, so why are you wasting your time bitching about it? Also, this is part of the reason I do This Week in Doom - so people know right up front what is worth bothering with and what is garbage. Do we need yo to tell us what's good and what's crap? That's why we got the newstuff chronicles for wads like that. Disregard that, they never get reviews because those are troll wads according to those people. To start with - stay away from "butthurt" - Terrywad. Warning. Danger Will Robinson - Danger.Likewise, don't bother wasting your time on "Descrate.wad" - "descr.zip". Another joke/terry wad and not worth the time or effort to even bother with. To continue on with the tedium of looking over garbage posted by trolls on the archives - stay away from "desec2.zip" by buntcakester@yahoo.com. The only reason I mention them at all is to save you from the bs I put up with. Please feel free to send this ahole a note thanking him for wasting Ty Hemingways time, though.So you're encouraging people to waste their time complaining about Terrywads? Bitching about them will not make a difference. Now I'm going to reply to General Rainbow Bacon: Personally I think Ty should deny entry to the archive for wads that haven't first been showcased in Wads & Mods and been proven to be good maps, or at least not shitwads. That would take care of the problem. Like he's ever going to listen to you on that dumb suggestion. So in order for a wad to accepted by you logic, it must have it's own thread on Wads & Mods? Talk about being a dumbass when in reality you just want everything you don't like gone from the archives. And you think letting all the shit that currently comes into the archive continue streaming in like piss is fine? How about you actually learn to ignore the wads instead of wasting people's time complaining about them? I don't. I come here to play maps that are fun. I don't like the fact that now when I look in the archive, I have to wade through piles of crap. Then play the map that you like and stop being a bitch about it. There needs to be something done. Maybe not what I suggested, but someone needs to put their foot down and stop letting Terrywads and other similar shit into the archive. Something was already done about this problem back in May of this year. Go back and re-read the archive cleanups again because, Ty did something about it. And no Ty is not going to delete Terrywads off the archives because he you said so. It's like the archive has become a wad hoarder's paradise, we don't need to hold on to most of the shit that comes through here now. So by that logic we also don't need to hold on to those forgettable 94 wads that sucked? I say we give new wads a 1 month window to be reviewed, if they don't get at least an average score of 3 stars by then, they get canned. So if it's a legitimate effort and fails to get 3 stars it must be removed? This is just another dumb idea based on a quality criterion which the archives never generally follow. Yeah that is something, but do we really need to save these pathetic wads? There's no reason to keep them in the archive. Do you keep all your trash and save it for later at home? Probably not, why do we do it here? That's not up to you to decide. We should be able to create whatever we like and also be able to upload on the archives. We have this forum to help build good mapping technique and help each other out when we want to hone our mapping skills. There's no reason to submit something that you know is sub-par to the archive when we have all these resources to improve maps. Then use this forum and keep talking about wads that nobody cares about. I might think about starting a new Doom site, and making this a reality. Somehow I get the impression this idea is just going to fail. Like only a select few would care about your Doom website if you were going to create it. Here's some advise General Rainbow Bacon(He used to be called DoomHero85 at some point before coming up with his current gay username.), why don't you stop watching My Little Pony and get a life, then maybe you wouldn't concern yourself with Terrywads. I wouldn't be surprised if you still live with your parents because, just judging by the amount of posts you make, that alone gives me a sign that you have no life. Now for my last quote: (He's still not very good at getting his points across without ad-hominem attacks, though) I kinda of disagree with you on this one because, they actually deserve those attacks with how they treated me in the past, and with the fact they are all for censorship. It's what I have been saying about this community for years, especially Doomworld.

Mr. Chris still doesn't get it. Even if we get new maintainers, they still won't do anything else to Terrywads. Then there's leileilol who like the rest of the community, also wants something else more done to Terrywads.
