gamers.org is a site administered by Frans P. de Vries which plays host to multiple resources from the early to late 1990s related to the Doom community.

DoomGate

DoomGate is one of the earliest Doom community websites. It was founded by Piotr Kapiszewski at the University at Buffalo in 1994. While originally located at doomgate.cs.buffalo.edu, it eventually moved to its present location on gamers.org sometime around December 21, 1997.

All-Time Best Doom Levels

All-Time Best Doom Levels is a site hosted alongside DoomGate created by Myles Williams in 1995 and maintained until March 13, 1997. It was a democratically determined ranking of Doom modifications via a nomination and voting system, requiring a three-fourths majority amongst voters in order to accept a particular modification into its listings.

Doom Help Service

Main article: Doom Help Service

The Doom Help Service is a site hosted alongside DoomGate operated by Ian Mapleson, which grew out of the rec.games.computer.doom.help Usenet group and serves as a period collection of FAQs, guides, and utility downloads. It is no longer actively maintained and serves primarily as an historical archive.
