Getting started

Install

Only download NBK from the official sources: CurseForge, Wago or GitHub Releases. The CurseForge app or WoWUp is the easiest way, and they keep the addon up to date.

By hand: extract the archive so that every folder lands directly in your AddOns directory:

World of Warcraft/_retail_/Interface/AddOns/
├── NerzorsBlacklistKeeper_Data        (required – images, font, libraries)
├── NerzorsBlacklistKeeper             (core)
├── NerzorsBlacklistKeeper_ChatFilters
├── NerzorsBlacklistKeeper_GroupFinder (Retail only)
├── NerzorsBlacklistKeeper_Sync
├── NerzorsBlacklistKeeper_Recents
├── NerzorsBlacklistKeeper_RememberMe  (Retail only)
└── NerzorsBlacklistKeeper_Statistics

The same files work in _classic_era_, _classic_ and _forever_ (WoW: Forever) too. The game picks the right version by itself.

Open the window

Three ways lead to the main window:

• type /nbk in chat
• click the NBK button on the minimap
• through a data broker bar like Titan Panel or ChocolateBar (NBK brings a broker launcher)

This is what it looks like – and you can try it right here:

Add your first player

The fastest way in game is a right-click on a player – on the target frame, in your group, in chat or in the guild list. There you find Add to Blacklist and Add to Blacklist with Reason....

Or use + Add in the window, or a command:

/nbk add Ninjaloota-Blackrock Scammer

More on the Blacklist page.

And then?

From now on NBK works in the background: it warns you when the player joins your group, shows the reason in the tooltip and hides their chat if you like. Open the settings with /nbk config or the cog at the top right of the window.

After every update the "What's new?" window opens once. Bring it back later with /nbk news.
