Entry 1 - An In Depth Look.

The EGS Nightmare Continued?: A Look Into Naze Warbled/The Randy Stair Cult.
By - Kyle Bouchard/Mundane Memoirs/Dark Sleeper
Hello there to any readers, my name is Kyle and I am an aspiring writer. I am writing this up to create an account of a particular subject that seems to have gone relatively unnoticed. A while back in mid 2018 I created a video talking about the rebirth of the "Ember's Ghost Squad" series for my personal YouTube channel. The link will be provided below for reference if anyone cares to see what started me down this path. At the time I was relatively new to the topic, so I may have either perceived the situation as more dire then it actually way. Regardless ever since then I have become somewhat fascinated in the story of the one who is known as "Naze". Why would someone so closely follow and admire one such as randy, what could he possibly hope to accomplish with this continuation? These questions and more swam through my mind day in and day out for longer then they probably should have. Around the same time I was gaining an increasing interest in the world of eccentric personalities on the internet, or "Lolcows" as I have seen them labeled by peers on platforms such as Kiwi Farms.

Looking deeper into the history of Randy Stair and the following he had amassed over the years in life and death I came to a conclusion, nobody took him seriously when he was alive. Regardless of the situation the incident of his suicide also cost several people their lives, so when I saw that save for several small threads that none seemed aware of this emergence of this new group I took action. While it may just be my overly cautious and cynical personality, I am of the opinion that this individual and by extension his group should be as documented as possible as to prevent another series of obituaries added to the bleak legacy of this individual. The following will be told in order of real time procession that my pseudo investigation yielded.

Shortly after my original video I rather ungracefully left a foolish comment to the twitter of Naze, I was far to brash and direct with my statement. This obviously resulted in the total lack of an answer from the individual running the account, although it very well be that he never saw my message as the account was under some sort of observation at the time. I will go into more detail on the observation further into my report.

So with this failure to get a response I began to look more into the individual through other sources, Naze seemed to be under some sort of police investigation at the time as will be later highlighted by screen capture of the elusive discord group. The twitter had all but been scrubbed clean of any information incriminating and none incriminating. The official channel and wiki set for the reboot series offered little to nothing in relation to the creators information save for his twisted obsession with a shooter. What I did find in this initial search was that like his predecessor Naze seemed to be an avid fan of sorts of killers such as Columbine killers, who in turn had a shockingly large follower base themselves.

Further concerned at the ever apparent similarities between the two individuals, and my hope that this was some troll inspired art project dissipating I pressed on. Onward to Kiwi Farms, a platform for the smart ass authors and the archivist of the obscene from across the internet. It was here that I learned that the individual behind the new season of EGS already had a rather checkered past, again for any reader interested they can see mentions of Naze begin to appear around the page 51 of the official thread talking about EGS on the site. https://kiwifarms.net/threads/randy-stair-andrew-blaze-pioneersproductions-embers-ghost-squad-egs.31437/page-51

So while researching this page and others for any information I could find on this group the twitter became live once again. Now with a more firm grasp of who this individual was and what they may be like I created a plan of attack so to speak, creating a sock puppet (I know very original) and posting for a while I chose to bide my time. I wanted to make the account look as much like a legitimate account as I could before, perhaps foolishly I chose to make the account as "edgy" as I could in an attempt to appeal to the apparent teenage angst fueled fan base of this new community.

Enter "Van Zann", the edgy perpetually pissed satanist. In reflection this probably the most generic sort of edgy character that I could have chosen. But seeming that Naze and his peers seemed in a way "slow" lead me to believe that such a stereotypical account could pass for legitimate to them. So what followed was weeks of posting vaguely satanic delusional rants about turning into dragons and burning the world to dust. At the time I believed that the whole "reaching my true form" concept which seemed very popular to the EGS community would legitimatize myself in their eyes. After several weeks possibly a month of posting I reached out in a question session to Naze. I apologize for any cringe that readers may suffer from either my intentionally bad role play and grammer or the subjects natural demeanor.

Following this the individual seemed to open up considerably to me, following my sock puppet account and even liking a few of my cringe inducing posts. Hoping to reel in Naze further along the path to trusting me I created some rather poor "art" in a bid to appeal to his ego, an ego that would become ever more apparent in later incidents.In the messages following I not only learned a bit more about the creator and the EGS concept as a whole, I made my way further along the path to trust. I played up the idea of having visions from the devil that my fictional group would be intertwined with his groups fate.

Following this series of messages I was granted access to the egs discord group, wasting no time I proceeded to scour the chat history. I screen captured anything I considered either important for potential proof of danger or gave me a better insight into the members of this community. I read through literal months of accumulated posts, from August to November in search for information. As I read further several things became very apparent among the seemingly endless posts of bad art and teenage angst garbage. One that this group would not be as much of a danger as I thought, due largely in part to apparently having several key members under police and psychiatric professional observation. Two that Naze Warbled for all intents and purposes could be Randy Stair, from the fascination with killer to a deep seated hatred for anyone with any sort of following on YouTube. Below we have some screenshots of the various squad members discussing their hatred for cops and the injustice of not being allowed to worship cartoon obsessed killers in peace. I have chosen several key ones to post here, more can be found in the linked folder below.

 As can be seen from above these individuals seem to enjoy creating outlandishly impossible tales, weaving stories of perceived injustice and trying to make comparisons between themselves and "similar" people. Difference between people like Stephan King and Randy Stair would be that one seems to have a solid grasp on reality, and the other is a murderous man baby but what do I know.
Anyway while scrolling through the feed I began to notice very clear similarities between Naze and his hero of choice, he displayed an extreme sense of entitlement and narcissism even towards his so called fans. Berating them when they refused or failed to stroke his ego, insulting their works and opinions, and even showcasing a hatred for anyone with more success then himself online. This can be seen in the following screenshots that I will showcase as well.
 

I can't help but be reminded of the numerous hours that Randy himself ranted into the camera about these same things, more subs, more praise, more ego stroking. Its a bit sickening to be honest how some people can be so vindictive of those around them, but I digress. Reaching the halfway point of the chat history by this point in my investigation I turned my attention to some of the other members of the group. As delusional and overly sensitive as Warbled himself these people are all classic examples of coddled children with snow flake personalities. Any differing opinions or conflicting views eliciting a juvenile outburst, I would not be surprised to hear that these people were the type to claim being triggered. Take for example these following shots, the first showcasing the sensitivity followed by several showing possible signs to insanity.

To say that these are certainly very eccentric personalities is a severe understatement, I will never understand this fascination with deceased emo killers. Though as delusional as they seem I am not sure if they or those who have attempted to "troll" them are more pathetic. Weens as I have come to understand they are called by the Farms are those who attempt to recapture the ideas already accomplished by previous trolls. They are either too desperate for peer validation or too lacking in ideas to enact an original plan, thus leading to rather hilarious failed attempts that often earns the derision of the very trolls they hoped to impress. Below are some classic examples I found reference to in my investigation into the various threads and channels of the server.

The EGS community is something after my search and documentation I would deem a none threat in it's current state. While these people are definitely unhinged and obsessed with Stair, they also seem to be under some form of observation if any truth lies in the embellishment. So with this endeavor completed I will leave it in the hands of others who may wish to pick up where I have left off. I am rather new to the platform of discord so I am unsure how the invite system works, the link I was provided may or may not work for anyone else I am unsure. If anyone wishes they may PM me for access to the code, whether it works or not is up for more experienced discord users to know. I hope that I could provide some insight into this group for any person reading, I hope that this situation does not become a repeat of the Randy Stair massacre.
