What's your plan to stop alts forming other guilds to water down the rotation because that's how a sociopathic subset on this server rolls?
It wouldn't be too hard to lock out individuals from raiding outside their slots, even on alts and friends accounts. GUI's are like fingerprints and that little DLL can just ID you from your INI's. That's a bit of extra coding on the front end, but if it saves time of policing these chuckleheads on the backend, it's probably time worth spent.

That sounds like more work for staff though o.O

Not in the long run. It's a set it and forget it kinda thing. How many man hours did they put into settling the raid disputes over the course of a decade?

Well everything makes more work for the staff though, even just keeping the status quo.

The real question is which is more work: implementing some way to limit people to a single raid window, not limiting them and letting people raid in multiple windows with alts, or having to personally manage things like they do now.
