Not only would the jumpscares show NSFW content, but they would also play loud screaming noises. The other hacked addons include the "View Extension" addon, the "JAction Extension" addon, the "Dragotheke" addon, the "Trollface Player" addons, and the "Ambient Occulsion" addon.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Popular Garry's Mod Addon Creator Surprises Players With Graphic Images Following Suspected Ban - Game News 24 |url=https://game-news24.com/2022/06/03/popular-garry-s-mod-addon-creator-surprises-players-with-graphic-images-following-suspected-ban/ |access-date=2022-06-07 |language=en-US}}</ref> The player would be jumpscared by a notorious image known as "goatse" <ref>{{Cite web |last=Robertson |first=Joshua |date=2022-06-03 |title=Popular Garry's Mod Addon Creator Is Surprising Players With Graphic Images Following Suspected Ban |url=https://www.thegamer.com/garrys-mod-glue-library/ |access-date=2022-06-07 |website=TheGamer |language=en-US}}</ref>on the Glue Library addon, Racist Spongebob would appear on the Trollface Player add one, etc. If you dug deeper in the files, you would see loads of curse words and death threats directed towards [[Steam (service)|Steam]], [[Valve Corporation]] and [[Gabe Newell]]. <ref>{{Cite web |date=2022-06-03 |title=Popular Garry's Mod Addon Creator is surprising gamers with graphic images after alleged ban - Latest Game Stories |url=https://latestgamestories.com/2022/06/03/popular-garrys-mod-addon-creator-is-surprising-gamers-with-graphic-images-after-alleged-ban/,%20https://latestgamestories.com/2022/06/03/popular-garrys-mod-addon-creator-is-surprising-gamers-with-graphic-images-after-alleged-ban/ |access-date=2022-06-07 |language=en-US}}</ref> Other jumpscares include a picture of a man stretching his [[buttocks]] with extreme vigor, <ref>{{Cite web |last=Shekelhertz |date=2022-06-05 |title=(18+) Garry's Mod Infested With Rogue Workshop Addons Resulting in Graphic "Goatse" Jump Scares |url=https://shekelhertz.com/18-garrys-mod-infested-with-rogue-workshop-addons-resulting-in-graphic-goatse-jump-scares/ |access-date=2022-06-07 |website=Shekelhertz |language=en-US}}</ref> pictures of Neko-Arc that include, Neko-Arc smoking a [[Cigarette|"fat blunt"]], Neko-Arc with the [[The finger|middle finger]] [[emoji]] used by social media platform [[Twitter]], etc.
