I know that many people have been given the run around and lost out on loot because someone sent loot to the wrong character. I also know that none of them have been able to get a GM to grant them the loot regardless of proof and admission of fault by the person giving the loot incorrectly. I myself just won Light's Justice from Prince in Karazan but the loot was given to the wrong character by accident. I know that I will not be receiving this item regardless of any tickets or complaints I may make to Warmane, however, I think an excellent way to eliminate this from happening, and to not have any more tickets being introduced about loot would be to implement the programming from Wotlk and above that gives any BoP item a 2 hour trading window to allow for any screw ups done by raid leaders with loot to be corrected immediately by the players themselves. Dual spec was implemented for the TBC server, and I do believe granting this trade window programming would be a very simple fix that would make a lot of players very happy.

2 Hour trade window for BoP loot in instances.

Well this isnt QoL change, this is just plain stupidity.. Learn from your mistakes, be more focused and such things wont happen again..
Aswell, if you write a ticket explaining what happend, you will get a GM help and item will be given to the right winner..
Stop suggesting any more stupid changes and implementations just because Dual Spec was implemented.. Because if we continue this way, we may move to wotlk realm and just play there..

Experience has shown that people do in fact not get the item (even with recordings, screenshots, etc) when opening tickets. Not that I think that horrible mechanic should be in TBC, but you're completely wrong about what you said.

It actually is a QoL change, not plain stupidity. Wasn't my mistake, it was ML's mistake. There's no amount of me focusing that would have made this not happen. No writing a ticket won't get me the item and a GM is not allowed to give out items under any circumstance regardless of evidence. This isn't just a stupid change suggested because of dual spec, it's a suggestion made to make sure players don't get screwed over by other players mistakes. If you don't like it then an appropriate way to respond might be to actually address a reason why it's bad instead of just calling it stupid. Yes it is a Wotlk thing, TBC is very nice and i believe is better than Wotlk, but if you could move beneficial factors of Wotlk to TBC easily, don't you think it's something worth doing? Again, please come up with a retort that's more than "it's stupid".

We lost a T5 glove token this way, loot master accidently looted a Defender token to a Paladin, GM's will not do a damn thing even if all parties are in agreement, they simply won't help fix your mistakes (nor will they help fix looting issues caused by bugs). In TBC these issues were fixed by GM's, a 2hour tradable system is a technical system that would need to exist in the game, and it doesn't.... Even if it did, it's open to abuse.
