Nebu does not appear to be an official Blizzard Poster anymore on the official forums, but continues to add updates to the official website.


Nebu is a Blizzard employee, responsible for much of the official website content.

He is also known by his alias GFraizer on the Battle.net site.

His personal website is Expect Nothing.


Kali Compton

Nebu/GFraizer is the founder and leader of the gaming clan & World of Warcraft Guild Kali Compton.

In 2004, shortly after the game's release, there was a large outcry on the official WoW Forums when there was an apparent abuse of privilege by Nebu when one of his characters' identity was revealed, which included seemingly arbitrary bans.[1] [2] [3] Users also pointed out that the guild name Kali Compton clearly violate Blizzard's naming policy, including both a real-world reference, and the name of a Hindu deity.

The official Blizzard response to the uproar:

This thread was deleted, and all subsequent threads created on this topic were closed. Several other threads containing references to this guild were also deleted, and a few players were wrongly suspended or banned from the forums for participating in these threads. We would like to correct this mistake. If you feel you were wrongly banned or suspended from the forums, please email your character name and the name of the realm you play on to wowreportedpost@blizzard.com. Furthermore, please note that we are taking measures to ensure this does not happen again.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this caused and thank you for your understanding and patience.

In addition, as part of our normal name-review process, the aforementioned guild’s name was reviewed last week and was found to be in violation of World of Warcraft’s naming policy. The name violates the rule dealing with real-world references, and is subject to the same procedure as other guilds. Therefore, the guild will be disbanded and reimbursed for their tabard, and will have to re-form using a different name. Please note that these are two separate issues that have the unfortunate coincidence of requiring attention at the same time.
