Hi! My name is Nathan, I am a 21 year old who likes to make YouTube Videos. I also stream on Twitch where I am an affiliate! I am apart of the Stream Team and an Ambassador for M3RK Clan! I play with a group of people who are funny, amazing and all-around great people and happily get to call my friends.

I have been making videos since I was 10 years old and I have been streaming since I was 14 years old. I like to base my content around Police-Related content on the game series Grand Theft Auto using a mod for both GTA 4 and 5 called “LCPDFR” and “LSPDFR”.

I am a Staff Member on the FiveM community TSDOJ (Tropical State Department of Justice)

My Story

I’ve been watching YouTube since I was 7 or 8 years old. I mainly watched Gaming Videos around Minecraft Mod Reviews and Mario Let’s Plays. Those included Stampy, DanTDM, PopularMMOs, SkyDoesMinecraft, Chuggaconroy, Cobermani456 and many more! In 2013, just shortly before the release of Grand Theft Auto V, while watching a DanTDM video, I found on the recommended page to the side, was a video from BayAreaBuggs titled “GTA IV LCPDFR MP #39 – State Week #1 (California)” and from then on I was hooked, I watched every episode right up until Episode #143 where he ended the series as he wanted to prepare for GTA V’s release. I stuck with him as he released each new video from Xbox 360 to PS4 to PC and then onto LSPDFR and FiveM!

Towards the end of 2014, I got an Xbox 360 and needed to come up with gamertag for myself. I chose to combine the two things I loved watching the most, BayAreaBuggs and Cobermani456. I chose the name “Buggs456” and it stayed like that. On the 2nd March 2015, I decided to make a Google Account under the same name.

I uploaded my first video which was a GTA Online Stunts Montage in which I rode around on a Orange Motorbike ramping off of Containers and Buildings. I had my sister Lauren hold my phone and film my TV because I didn’t own any sort of recording equipment. It lasted like that for a few months before I eventually used books and a phone case to hold my phone at a angle to film my TV. I also filmed a few different kind of videos, such as “Skate 3 Stunt Montages” and a mini series I created called “PGOTW (Phone Game of The Week) in where I downloaded a random game off of the Google Play Store and recorded a 10-20 minute video and showcased the game for a video. I uploaded these videos with NCS Music, especially songs by Alan Walker, including “Fade”, “Spectre” and a few others.

In April 2018, I decided it was time for a change. I didn’t want to be seen as a ‘copycat’ for BayAreaBuggs, so I changed the ‘s’ in my name to a ‘z’, making me “Buggz456”. At the same time, I deleted all of my old videos because I didn’t know how to set them to Private. I got my first laptop with Windows 10 on it and decided to try editing for the first time. I got my friend at school called Jack to make me a 3D text intro with my name and loaded it up into Windows Movie Maker. You can watch that video here: “Update Video | I’m Alive!“
From that point on I was never really consistent with videos kept using the same excuse for not uploading, “I’m on a break LOL”.

On the 19th October 2019, I got my first ever PC and from then I started taking things more seriously. I started making Higher Quality videos on GTA 5 & FiveM, with the occasional Minecraft video here and there and started getting much better at editing videos. From 2019 to 2021 I uploaded GTA 5 LSPDFR videos and a few GTA 4 LCPDFR videos. I decided to stop with LSPDFR videos because the game was too unstable for me to create videos, so I moved to GTA 4 for the time being.

Fast-forward to the beginning of 2023, I have a IRL job that I have been working at for the last few months and have saved up to buy a new PC! I bought a new rig and re-installed all my games and decided to give LSPDFR another go and start up FiveM videos again. I also started streaming fairly consistently to the point I was live on Twitch for 3 or 4, even 5 days a week!

Halfway through 2024 I recieved a DM from Undead Wolf saying he had an opportunity for me regarding joining a group called M3RK. They were the official gaming group of a mutual sponsor we both had at the time called Dubby. I said I was interested and applied to be an Ambassador with them. I joined up and became apart of the Stream Team. On the 18th January 2025, I joined the TSDOJ Staff Team as a Trial Staff Member, and was promoted to Full Staff on the 23rd May 2025.

On the 20th January 2026, M3RK’s contract with Dubby officially expired and decided it was in our best interest to not renew it. I dropped Dubby as a sponsor with M3RK. A few weeks later during the M3RK General Meeting we entered a bigger and better sponsorship with ULTI Supps.

In early April 2026 I decided to give up my position on the M3RK Stream Team because of my life getting extremely busy over the end of 2025 throughout to April and I decided it was the right thing to do.

and here we are! That’s you all caught up.
