Didn't Joost have a Quake site? I feel like he did.
Time to reminisce: Ran my own Quake levels site back in the day. Meccaworld.com/quake with a lot of the files hosted at quakemecca.simplenet.com because simplenet offered "unlimited" bandwidth.

If you're looking for some quality Single and Multiplayer Quake levels, most of the links work still (thanks to the magical way way back machine).

- pimlottc 10y agoYep, Joost ("rhymes with toast") Shuur started Aftershock, the first major Quake news site, during the pre-release days. Other sites like Blue's, Redwood's and sCaryname's took over after the game was actually released. Sometime after that, Joost, ran a directory (remember those?) of Quake-related sites called Slipgate Central for a while. Here's an old interview with him at the time: https://www.quaddicted.com/webarchive/hosted.planetquake.gamespy.com/spq2/quake1/int_joos.htm https://www.quaddicted.com/webarchive/hosted.planetquake.gam... (Man, sure brings back a lot of memories, and not just of Quake; the 'net sure was a different place back then...)
