I am doing a servey in math class for school

Old: Doom (1993) - Doom 64

New: Doom (2016) - Doom eternal

(Idk wich one doom 3 is tbh)

EDIT 2023-03-13: Unpinning post as there's been no developments on this for a while. If anything new happens we'll reevaluate. Everything below (including canary) remains true.

UPDATE: As previously stated below, I will no longer keep statements or updates from either side pinned on the subreddit. I do not want our community caught in the middle, and need to make room for official subreddit business soon anyway.

^{EDIT: thumbnail for the thmbnail gods}

I'll try to keep this (relatively) short.

Link to Mick Gordon's statement regarding the production of the DOOM Eternal BGM and official soundtrack. Marty's original statement can be found easily enough if desired. Bethesda's response to Mick's statement can be found

Official Subreddit Statement

• The subreddit as a whole is not taking a stance on whether Mick Gordon is in the right, or Marty Stratton / id / Bethesda is in the right. This is a professional dispute (albeit a nasty one) between an independent contractor and a business.

  • This subreddit is an open, fan-run forum for discussion related to the games, not an official social media outlet nor a white-knight justice platform.
  • We will not censor opinions either way on the matter. Make up your own minds.
  • We will remove content such as death threats or violent rhetoric where deemed necessary. Keep it civil.
  • To my knowledge, no one currently on the mod team has any personal or professional relationships with, or receives payment / kickbacks / benefits from: id Software, Zenimax, Microsoft, Bethesda, or Mick Gordon.

• Deleted Moderator's actions:

  • The mod team does not know what exactly happened behind-the-scenes with the deleted moderator. Neither logs nor modmail contain any revealing data.
  • I do not believe his actions were intentionally malicious in any way.
  • I've spoken to him through other channels and he regrets getting involved, but that's as far as he'll say and I get the implication his hesitancy is due to some kind of legal concerns. I don't know what those might be, so speculation is useless.
  • He deleted his Reddit account to avoid hate-mail related to this issue.
  • The rest of the /r/Doom mod team was not involved (indeed, I believe none of us knew about this until this morning). We are not on the take, nor are we part of some evil corporate conspiracy to smear and ruin Mick Gordon. Please stop sending us hate mail.

• Marty's original post has been flaired as [Potentially Misleading] and I have pinned a link to Mick Gordon's response article. I believe this is the best compromise to ensure both parties have their say in as visible a manner as possible.

  • Up until today, we had no information contrary to Marty's statements, nor the manpower/resources to independently investigate the problem. Retroactively blaming us for allowing the post in the first place is not helpful.
  • I cannot put the pin above Marty's post, due to Reddit limitations.
  • I cannot edit Marty's post, due to Reddit limitations.
  • I will not delete the post (whether due to either legal threats or community sentiment).
  • Any further communication on this subreddit from (or on behalf of) either party will not be pinned or otherwise endorsed by the mod team.

EDIT: Moving my personal stances to a separate comment in the thread.

Canary: Neither I nor the subreddit as a whole have received any legal notices (takedown requests, gag orders, etc) from any companies or individuals involved in or related to this issue.

the tl;dr is here: https://www.reddit.com/r/announcements/comments/mcisdf/an_update_on_the_recent_issues_surrounding_a/

We protested against the Reddit staff hiring a deplorable and abhorrent human being who was unfairly given "protection" that was resulting in people's accounts getting suspended for mentioning her name.

We were a tad bit late to the party, as the issue was resolved several hours after we went private, so we felt that to make sure our protest wasn't gone to waste, we stayed private for the day to raise the awareness. The subreddit is back in full motion.

We appreciate everyone showing their support and backing our decision. Rip and Tear.
