# Exposé: Uncovering the Disturbing Behavior of "cool_nom"
## Introduction
This exposé aims to shed light on the troubling behavior of a user known as "cool_nom,"
formerly "scratchingmyhead193," within the Scratch and Discord communities. Initially a
collaborator in game development, "cool_nom" exhibited alarming conduct following an IP ban
from Scratch. This report will detail the incidents leading to this disturbing behavior, including
graphic threats and racial slurs.
## 1. The Beginning of the Downfall
On May 1, 2024, "cool_nom" joined Scratch under the username "scratchingmyhead193." We
collaborated on various games, fostering a positive online environment. However, on May 3,
2024, "cool_nom" received an IP ban from Scratch, which triggered a significant change in his
behavior.
## 2. Disturbing Content and Threats
As tensions escalated, "cool_nom" responded to my references with increasingly disturbing
content. He created and threatened to send graphic images, including a detailed illustration of
the Scratch Cat with its organs exposed.
## 3. Escalation on Discord
After some time apart due to school, I logged onto Discord in July and discovered "cool_nom"
interacting with another friend. A comment I made referencing a character from his previous
works led to him banning me from every server he was in, except for one I created. That’s the
reason I can’t provide much screenshots until we get to DMs.
## 4. The Disturbing Message
On July 24, 2024, "cool_nom" sent me a friend request, which surprised me. During our
exchange, he expressed that unfriending me had improved his happiness and mental state, yet
his following messages took a dark turn.
### Evidence:
- **Racist Remarks**: In a subsequent message, he used a racial slur, which he deleted and
replaced with another derogatory term, highlighting a concerning pattern of behavior.
## 5. Recent Developments
Recently, my friend and I reached out to "cool_nom" regarding the incidents. When we hinted at
sharing this information publicly, he quickly shifted his tone, offering apologies and expressing
remorse for his actions.
### Evidence:
- **Change in Behavior**: Screenshots from our latest interactions show his sudden
defensiveness and willingness to apologize when faced with potential exposure.
## Conclusion
The actions of "cool_nom" reflect a disturbing transformation from a collaborative gamer to
someone who engages in graphic threats and racist behavior. These incidents demonstrate the
need for vigilance in online communities to ensure a safe environment for all users.
### Call to Action
I urge community leaders and moderators on platforms like Discord and Scratch to take these
allegations seriously, review the provided evidence, and enforce stricter guidelines to prevent
such behavior in the future.
