Likewise, the ToS gives Blizzard the right to do something like this.  There's no need for Blizzard to fix the system, it simply takes them doing a little police work (not hard to do) and deal with the offenders in a manner that shows cascading will not be tolerated.

How hard is it to check if you have 3 raid ID's and not let you zone in? As you mentioned I can't think of a way where you would need to legitimately have more than 2.

How hard is it to add a field to the character data that says killed Lucifron at XXX time or killed Mags or killed whoever at XXX time and if that boss is alive in that instance while you still have a raid ID for that instance to stop you from zoning in.

I'm very very pissed about this change. Pissed enough to have posted on the official forums.

It's all just zeroes and ones and duct tape in the end.
