Blizzard historically had not taken kindly to MPQ hacks of any kind whether it be modifying the existing mpq or adding new "patch" mpqs. These types of changes are picked by Warden and likely will result in your account being flagged.
You may want to take down this How-To until you can verify the legality of what you are doing.

Alright, I've done so for now (
EDIT: It's back up now)...now explain this. I have not once seen anything about
adding files being against ToS (unless of course, the obvious cross-faction communication or game automation etc).
Also, I really dislike how you've alluded to this being a "hack".
It's not. All this is doing is adding a file that says "Hey WoW, instead of using your own file how about you use this one?" (EDIT: Actually it doesn't even do that. It just exists. WoW is
choosing to use it.) In fact, it's really no different than this:
http://www.wowinterface.com/download...rrorsound.html
The only thing that's different is that this file is a .MPQ, and that one is an audio file.
NO BLIZZARD FILES ARE BEING ALTERED IN ANY WAY WHATSOEVER.
So perhaps before you villainize someone you should back up your claims with some solid evidence? Innocent until proven guilty...the burden of proof lies on you, not me.
