It brings me great sorrow to announce to the BitBuilt community (along with any others who are sent this post) that Jason, better known as @Doom, has passed away. This information came early yesterday morning from one of his close friends, Len-Rod. I hope his passing was as painless and peaceful as possible.
For those of use who have been part of our community or the BitBuilt discord (or other modding-related discord servers), you've undoubtedly interacted with Doom. Whether a casual discussion or times of joy, he has long been endeared by all of us.
For those who didn't get the opportunity to interact with him, know that Doom has lived and shared the modding spirit for over 2 decades. He has long been a part of BitBuilt, the BenHeck forums, and many others (ranging even to a community that modded Hockey games I've heard?) Seeing everyone's creations, documenting them, and, above all, spending time with like-minded people in his hobbies was undoubtedly what he loved to do.
Doom leaving us comes as a hard blow to many of us on a personal level, especially following the passing of @Postman last September. I pray we're not tested by another loss so soon.
Please, use this thread as a place to share your memories of Doom. Whether it's a few kind words, pictures of him and his projects, or stories - everything is welcome.
The BitBuilt logo has been updated to bear his avatar in remembrance, likely "reverting back" at some point in the upcoming months.
