First I was playing doom 95, I got a bit bored, so then I look for doom mods. I found Simpsons doom and it was suggested that I use Zdoom for It, So I searched Zdoom, but Then I Saw Skulltag Multiplayer Doom, I clicked It. I've been playing it ever since.

I came to Zandronum from Skulltag. I came to Skulltag back in it's days of 96b, migrated from Zdaemon... the horrible community drove me to ST, and then this whole fiasco has driven me here. That's it I suppose... That's all I can really think of to say about that. Skulltag was the best port around, especially for Multiplayer, but now Zandronum is the thing, and I can't wait for a final release. *tips hat*

Luck, I suppose.

Back when I was a wee lad, I was on a huge FPS binge. Now, being a self-appointed FPS junkie, it was my duty to educate myself in the forefathers/forebearers of the genre, so I went to find a way to play Doom. With, y'know. Mouse support. And updated controls. Because I wasn't THAT much of a purist.
Looking back on it now, there were lots of different engines I could've found. I mean, there's a lot of different source ports out there with a lot of different capabilities, but I found Skulltag and downloaded it. While I've never really started seriously modding for it until a few years ago, I've played Skulltag and Doom ever since, and now here I am with Zandronum.

I have to wonder where I'd be in the game/community now if I'd found a different source port.

Played Doom when I was a kid, then after a hiatus played Doom2 Via ZDoom at around 2004-2005. I Didn't know about multiplayer back then, and eventually deleted it from my computer. Then at around december 2008 I started playing doom again, This time JDoom, and after that I searched for multiplayer and discovered ZDaemon, which I played for about 1 month before finding out about Doom connector which lead me to playing skulltag to this day :smile:

I have no idea when this was, but a long time ago me and a friend used to LAN in Doom. We tried downloading PWADS to play with doom and hosting servers with them became a real hassle for LAN, so I found Skulltag and downloaded it for LAN play. Didn't actually play online for a while after that and then only in Survival for a long time.
For a while now I haven't even had fast enough internet to play online so meh.

September 2005, I had just started my junior year in high school. One day after school I was super bored on my computer and saw a copy of Doom II on one of my shelves and thought it would be cool to see if anyone still played an old game like that online still. So I Googled "doom online" and for whatever reason Skulltag Online was one of the first results. So I downloaded STO, made an account, and have been playing Skulltag ever since, through the good and the bad. I feel blessed that I found Skulltag when I did because I feel it gave me a much more tangible online experience that most casual gamers don't have. I've made a lot of friends and had a lot of good times on Skulltag over the years, I definitely don't regret downloading STO that day. Even if I have made some really catastrophic mistakes recently, I still had a really good time overall for most of my run here.

It was like 2010 just Watching some doom videos on youtube, then i saw something called mario doom (of course i'm a mario fan) looked at it there was a link to it. i never had any newer Doom ports i never had doom at all during that time. so i just wanted to check it out on that website. found out it had a download of it with GZdoom and freedoom as well. so after fooling around with mario doom and freedoom i've seem to get bored playing by myself so i looked up a coopbot wad or mod. which i have found one on youtube. there was 2 files included, one works with GZdoom the other one works with Skulltag. but it didn't work with my Gzdoom. so the other one that works with skulltag i just left alone. so then after like about 2 weeks later i look up Skulltag and then downloaded it. And i still remain happy playing skulltag (and also the new Zandronum) [oh i got the doom 2 game later on too. and doom builder 2! which i quite got used to and know how to build about anything]

I came across Skulltag in 2009 while looking for a way to play Doom. Was a simple installation, so I stuck with it. And, when the time came to move to Zandronum, I reluctantly complied. Lurked the ST forums for a year before registering here.

I was 10 years old, and 3 years before got the Doom collectors edition wich i so long begged for at my mom's, after getting it me and a friend played doom all the time, seeing who could beat levels best, highest kills, lowest time, whatever, i then came to realize Doom95 noted something about WADS, i googled, i soon found out you could play deathmatch on some maps, and i searched up "Online doom", and bumped on Skulltag.com, downloaded it, and Voila, in 2005's december i started playing skulltag, and in 2006's January i joined a clan called [SA]

I can't even remember properly how the hell I came to the ghoul wads and stuff, but I had skulltag for quite a while.

The one thing that made me join the community, however - was GVH.
And then began the legacy of pain and suffering and stuff. (But really, something.)

I came from the Zdaemon like early 2009 'cause of how buggy it is. And I made the right decision , IMO.

Back in 2008, while randomly looking on google for a fun map to play in gzdoom, "oh look this can be played online too lel", still Skulltag caught my attention while choosing more than Zdaemon ;)
