Afrasiabi who WoTLK Classic Gold was sacked without a ceremony at Blizzard this summer, was the only person named directly in the State of California's lawsuit relating to sexual harassment claims. The lawsuit asserts that he frequently smack female employees and try to kiss them, and then wrap the arms of his victims. One of the parts of the suit which is particularly interesting is the claim that Afrasiabi's room was nicknamed the "Crosby Suite," an apparent reference to alleged sexual assaulter Bill Cosby, who in 2018 was sentenced to 10 years in jail in connection with sexual assault allegations, accusations that were later overturned from the Pennsylvania State Supreme Court.
The suit states that Afrasiabi's claimed behavior of harassment was disclosed to Blizzard executives, yet there was no action taken to correct the problem due to his seniority as well as Blizzard chief J. Allen Brack allegedly only giving Afrasiabi an obscene slap on the wrist in response to his behavior. Afrasiabi joined Blizzard since 2004 when he was employed as a hunter creator on vanilla WoW. He went on to become the creative director for WoW's Warlords of Draenor and Legion expansions.
He continues to phasing in and out, but I managed to spit on him prior to them removing buy WoTLK Gold his NPC. Wow!
