Invisible narratives revealed that the countdown they had previously stated turns out to just be for a merch release on Skibidi Toilet’s 3rd anniversary
Then, many non-Skibidi related accounts that’s post news on various series and topics stated posting about Skibidi Toilet’s 3rd anniversary. Accounts included Cartoon Base, Toon pop and many more.
Some like Cartoon Base and Toon pop added that a Michael bay skibidi toilet movie is in the works. As we previously established, Michael Bay himself confirmed he isn’t working on a movie and it was found from sources close to Inviz that he had a falling out with inviz in June of last year.
Many fans argued that these posts did not reflect the newer claims about Michael Bay’s alleged lack of involvement. After Cartoon Base was called out for this misinformation they deleted their tweet after some attempted to community note and pointed out the misinformation in the comments.
The countdown on the merch shop finally ended on this day with it indeed being just a merch drop. only two products appeared directly tied to the anniversary, and fans criticized the drop as underwhelming. In total, 9 products released. Many were felt by fans as overpriced, costing $35 to buy a transparent bag.
In addition, Invisible Narratives also appeared to publish incorrect dates on some merchandise descriptions, listing “2013” instead of “2023.” This error was present on multiple merch items, suggesting they simply copy pasted the descriptions.
Alexey’s 3rd Anniversary Message
In a surprising twist, on February 7th boom tweeted for the first time in a long time.
For context, Alexey usually makes a post every year for the anniversary, thanking the fandom, and posts the original Skibidi Toilet smiling.
This year however, is quite the opposite.
Fans interpreted the frowning Skibidi Toilet as a possible reflection of Alexey’s mood during the controversy. This in combination with Alexey’s profile picture becoming straight-faced led many fans to believe Alexey may have been unhappy at the time.
We know this post is about the anniversary as a hidden text reads “3 years”.
Following this, Ibio made a tweet providing further context on booms current situation with it blowing up garnering 700k+ views and 13k likes. It gained the same amount of likes as booms own tweet and boosted booms tweets views and engagement further.
Throughout this whole thing, the auto generated X news stories based on the top tweets about the situation consistently changed, and represented the BringBoomBack movement a lot better over time.
The news story also received an amazing number of tweets with it getting over 10k tweets showing the interest in the story and how popular it had become.
On this day, Alexey had also been noticed viewing many DM’s from people including community members @MusakharAli and @DexoLantern

Valve
Santossar posted an announcement claiming Valve was no longer involved and implying that Alexey did not want to compromise with Invisible Narratives.
The community questioned portions of Santossars statement.
When Ibio was asked, fans learned that indeed, Ibio has been sending information to Valve. However he did not send the email to Valve that Santosarr shared. Fans were unsure who might’ve sent that email to Valve or where the email came from.
It was reportedly true that Valve wanted to understand the situation, but we don’t know whether they’re still interested or not anymore. No updates on this as of right now.
There was reportedly no meeting between Inviz and Valve.
It’s been unclear from the beginning what Valve would want to do or be able to do in this situation. But creators and others can keep sending them information. The community hoped Valve would consider creators’ allegations about revenue splits, criticism suppression, and Alexey’s treatment by Invisible Narratives.
Creator Alliance Discord Server Leaks
Iron Cameraman revealed screenshots of the “Creator Alliance” Discord server which appeared to show creators expressing frustration over a lack of response from Invisible Narratives. There has been no new call from Inviz with them from December the 3rd 2025.
DoorCloser “can’t stop” video
DoorCloser releases a video called “this text can’t stop me”. In the video itself the text “nothing gonna stop me now” is displayed on screen and the description reads “nothing can stop me now cuz I don’t care anymore”.
Many fans interpreted the video as a possible hint that Alexey, if he was behind the account, intended to become more active.
Alexey’s Prior Discord Account Deletes DMs
A member of the community with connections to boom Spiggify reveals how his DM’s with Dafuqboom sent from late 2024 and early 2025 were deleted. He says some were deleted as far back as February 2025 with the rest being deleted more recently.
10th February 2026
DoorCloser likes a tweet from RU1 with Duchess fan art. Fans noted how much Alexey used to simp for duchess and PowerCat doesn’t necessarily interact with Skibidi Toilet content much – which some fans interpreted as another sign that Alexey may have been using the DoorCloser Twitter account.

Spidarrund’s Manager
Skibidi Toilet creator Spidarrund’s old manager revealed they had constantly complained about Inviz back in 2024. This was back before Spidarrund was exposed for their behaviour.
In these screenshots, they complain about inviz taking too high of a percentage of revenue. He also complains about Inviz threatening strikes on Spidarrund’s channel back then if they didn’t agree to their terms. They repeatedly calls Inviz a “greedy company” and says how there’s such little he could do here.
According to the former manager, there were claims that tax-related issues in Spidarrund’s country factored into the dispute.
Spidarrund Himself
It was reported that Spidarrund had similar opinions of Inviz all the way back in 2024 that Inviz was not a great company and boom was probably being silenced. Spiggify shared these old messages with Spidarrund.
Spiggify was a mod on Spid’s discord and talked to him often. Back in 2024, Spid had a contract with Inviz to make Skibidi Invasion. But the only reason he had a contract was because Inviz would’ve striked his channel otherwise.
Spid said Boom couldn’t do anything about Inviz striking creators’ channels. Spid said Boom couldn’t speak against Inviz due to an NDA. It’s not confirmed that Spid would know this for sure. But spiggify said Spid talked to Boom often about private info.
In September 2024, Spidarrund unexpectedly announced that he was stopping his Skibidi Invasion series because of “heavy technical issues,” but never elaborated on what that meant. And he was starting a new series called The Invasion, which was basically Skibidi Invasion without the Skibidi.
There was speculation that Spid stopped his series because he either got tired of it or had issues with SFM. But Spiggify revealed that he stopped it because of Inviz. He said Spid and Inviz had some type of falling out or disagreement. Spid believed that Inviz was striking videos on fanmades that they didn’t like, and he became one of those channels they didn’t like. He told Spiggify over voice message that Inviz was going to strike his videos until he either stopped making them or his channel was deleted after 3 strikes.
Spidarrund deleted many of his videos at that time. These were mostly his Skibidi meme shorts, some of which included problematic jokes. He also deleted other Skibidi meme regular videos and non-skibidi videos. These screenshots reveal that he deleted them because he was scared of being struck. He doesn’t explicitly say he was scared of being struck by Inviz, but Spiggify said whenever Inviz came up in conversation, Spid was uncomfortable talking about it.
We saw in Ibio’s contract that if you leave the contract, Inviz could make you delete any videos that have Skibidi content. This also lines up with other Skibidi creators being striked by Inviz around 2024 in order to get them into contracts.
In October 2024, Spidarrund asked why anyone would want to support Inviz? He recommended not buying their merch. This was all before the major drama where Spidarrund was cancelled in the fandom.
Spidarrund’s series wasn’t cancelled due to the allegations against him, but instead months prior for which he said at the time to be “technical difficulties”. These screenshots led fans to reinterpret Spidarrund’s earlier reference to “technical difficulties” as possibly connected to his dispute with Invisible Narratives. After his series was cancelled, Spidarrund continued making “what if”s for a couple more months till January where he was cancelled for unrelated reasons and fled the Skibidi Toilet community.

DoorCloser likes art on Instagram that features a scene from episode 70 of skibidi toilet with 3 titans. The music used on the post is “eyes without a face” which is the same one used in the Incomplete shorts which people heavily believe are referencing the Skibidi Toilet situation with how Alexey couldn’t complete the series.
15th February 2026
On the left – message from Inviz of when DavidLb first joined to help support the creator alliance in April 2025. On the right – DavidLB dms iron after some video iron made. In that video iron talks about how a creator leaked some spoilers he wasn’t meant to show at that time early. He sounds defensive to iron here.
15th February 2026
The “Skibidi Toilet Shop” Instagram account was still posting content, making a post for Valentine’s Day. Even months after the situation began, almost every single comment is related to BringBoomBack.
And as a side note, in this valentines video, they chose to highlight tv woman and simp, when their “love story” in the series clearly shows that tv woman never loved him. Interesting choice to focus on unrequited love for this. It’s kinda funny at the end of this edit to see simp standing there sad that tv woman ignored him, as the words “Happy Valentines Day” come on screen.
They could’ve chosen to highlight Cathy and Dave, an actual love story, because of which fans criticized the post as out of touch with the series’ actual character dynamics.
To add further to this I would also like to point out how how on Valentine’s Day they’ve posted a whole video on their Instagram to celebrate it.
For the anniversary we received nothing but a photo promoting their merch and merch itself. Not one video/post even commemorating the birthday. They also didn’t even say once “happy skibidiversary” or anything of the sort.
15th February 2026
DoorCloser Activity
Activity increased on the DoorCloser instagram account, liking more posts.
They started re-posting videos. The first being this Russian meme which as we know boom is Russian.
Then they re-posted an interesting video titled “Our summer trip to Dubai”. At the time, the DoorCloser Instagram and Twitter had their location set at the UAE, as well as Alexey’s.
On top of that, Adam said he had visited boom in Dubai in Inviz’s December statement and recent private DMs leaked by inviz show Adam discussing this with Alexey. This added to fan speculation that the DoorCloser accounts may have been used by Alexey as well as PowerCat.
Finally, they re-posted a video called “I’m weird but I’m real”
DoorCloser Reuploads
DoorCloser reuploads their recent video of the “nothing gonna stop me” video onto Instagram. However, there’s a change. The text is changed from “nothing gonna stop me now” to “this text isn’t stopping shi” Why this change was included is unclear.
For context, for the DoorCloser short is based on this meme/trend on TikTok – perhaps the text change for Instagram aimed to reflect that.
However, Doorcloser’s description for this video on youtube is still something of note. Also, Doorcloser used the song “Closer” by Nine inch nails. Boom used this song in an Instagram post for his 77 part 4 spoilers. Whereas all the videos for this meme on tiktok use the song “Children” by Robert Miles.
15th/16th February 2026
Boom sees and reacts to community member DexoLantern’s DMs again with one that was released on the skibidi toilet anniversary which he reacts with a love heart and on 1 where DexoLantern tells him to react if he’s not bothering him which DexoLantern ends up doing so.
Alexey had also seen a DM from community member Musakhar.
Alexey’s activity is increasing especially since the skibidi toilet anniversary.
16th February 2026
Alexey replies properly to a fan email for the first time in a while. The original email was sent by community member @Zawg, regarding a power-scaling debate, unrelated about INVIZ. Boom shows clear emotions in it though and doesn’t speak like AI which is a breath of fresh air.
This started a chain of emails for the next 3 or so days that boom replies to.
February 16, 2026
DoorCloser posts a new animation “me and bro be like“. The caption and description match Alexey and PowerCat’s relationship, perhaps representing what Alexey has been doing all this time.
This also features the same characters from the Sleepwalk series that Alexey posted on his main account.
At the beginning it features this phrase on screen “stop shitposting and do something serious” – many think it’s a reference to how we feel about boom telling him to talk about Inviz and stop posting random videos on the Doorclozer channel that are jokes/memes.
DoorCloser had also previously uploaded “Sleepwalk beginnings” in August 2023. This is further indication that Alexey was making videos for DoorCloser throughout the time he was making Skibidi.
February 17, 2026
Alexey replies to another email about power-scaling starting the chain of emails he replies to with this being his 2nd one. He replies in his normal tone and humour and not like an AI. The emails feel genuine with no hidden messages or anything of that sort.
17th February 2026
DoorCloser Animation
DoorCloser channel posts a new short about the perils of using SFM.
Towards the end, a cameraman does the Iconic thumbs up at the end providing more indication this is Alexey’s work.
The song used is “Roxy music – Jealous Guy”, the lyrics of which fans noted as interesting
I was dreaming of the past
And my heart was beating fast
I began to lose control
I began to lose control
I didn’t mean to hurt you
I’m sorry that I made you cry
I didn’t mean to hurt you
I’m just a jealous guy
I was feeling insecure
You might not love me anymore
I was shivering inside
I was shivering inside
I didn’t mean to hurt you
I’m sorry that I made you cry
I didn’t want to hurt you
I’m just a jealous guy
I was trying to catch your eye
I thought that you was trying to hide
I was swallowing my pain
I was swallowing my pain
I didn’t mean to hurt you
I’m sorry that I made you cry
I didn’t mean to hurt you
I’m just a jealous guy
Fans pointed out map used here is “Downpour”, a map Alexey often used in many of his animations
The scream used in the short is VERY similar, basically the same as the scream Alexey sent to Ibio a few months ago during one of Ibio’s livestreams talking to Alexey.
Community member @EVILavigames mixed together the Ibio scream and the scream from the video to provide some comparison. Check the video out.

More Emails
Alexey replies to another email. This one was another power-scaling one and yet again not an AI or corporate response, but in his normal tone and humour.
ZacDoor Animation
After a long break from the community and drama, ZacDoor announced his return to the community on the same day announcing a animation. He also provided a spoiler for this.
ZacDoor made the Speakerman base featured in 79 and in the spoiler he shared, the official Speakerbase map is featured, as part of a BringBoomBack video.
18th February 2026
Prime Tuff
Another DoorCloser short releases about transformers, yet another in the same meme format as “boom tuff”.
Alexey used to upload Transformer shorts way back in the day. It’s actually what Adam Goodman and Michael Bay say that they found his channel and work through. The models used for prime here are the same as booms and as it’s a transformers animation this of course provided further evidence it’s boom animating and uploading on the DoorCloser channel.
A couple of hours after this video released DoorCloser commented under it “Michael Bay sucks ahh”. This shows that this video was meant to be a diss to Michael bay hence why the caption on the video reads “prime stop sliming plebs and go fight decepticons”. It was clear to fans that Alexey seemingly didn’t like Bay at this point, and perhaps even felt betrayed by him maybe due to the movie or short not being made or communicated to him.
It’s well known that Alexey used to look up to Bay back in the day, so it had been quite sad for fans to see this switch up.
DoorCloser Comment
DoorCloser comments “W” under ZacDoor’s animation spoiler featuring the Speakerbase.
Zacdoor had included a mini DoorClozer character hidden in the spoiler.
