What was iddqd? My guess is gore, but not interested to check.

[–] yukichigai@kbin.social 28 points 11 months ago (2 children)

From the site:

IDDQD: Instance For /vr/, /tg/, /g/, etc.

In other words an offshoot of 4chan's gaming-related boards (vg - Retro Gaming, tg - Traditional Gaming, g - Gaming). Unfortunately it's 4chan, so....

/g/ is the technology board, not gaming

[–] yukichigai@kbin.social 3 points 11 months ago

Agh, right, so you are.

Larger point still stands though.

IDDQD is a cheat for the original Doom, as a random fun-fact. God mode, iirc.

I was.

It is basically a bunch of low quality shitposts between 3 people.

Disappointing.

Looks like it's just following the pattern of racist shitheads cooping cool shit and being shitty about them. Like Pepe, the Punisher, and now this one's using Doom.
