Or make a copy of the originals and replace the patch whenever Blizz decided to do one and profit.

Actually, I think someone at Darknest tried that. It just gets rid of yours and re-downloads an unedited MPQ, if I remember right.

Quote: It's not people who edit their characters to spice up their game that they're worried about, they're worried about the people who edit Netherwing eggs into Murmurs and delete gates in WSG/Strath to gain an unfair advantage in the game. I'm sure if we didn't have this problem Blizz really wouldn't give a damn. I'm trying not to point any fingers, how people choose to play this game is their business, but Blizzard's job is to prevent such situations from happening, and we simply end up catching the shrapnel from it.
