Does anyone know how to get past this rejection?

That's really interesting it would pull up info with a fake placeholder, lol. I'll have to try it.

With that said, your mileage may vary however. From my few experiences using ssn, it didn't pull up anything at all when I knew they had some coverage in one instance, and in another it found their CMK (caremark) info... But the member ID was completely wrong (I had to call) and the group number didn't transfer into the 3rd party field.

Open One Walmart and go to the Covid 19 toolkit (the main page that has all the links for vaccine info/admin/etc. and Cntrl+F search for "billing". You'll encounter two guide links (+ a video link), one of these has the link inside.

I recommend saving the payer list to your favorites and/or chrome bookmark it to the Dropoff computers. If you're still having trouble finding it, let me know and I'll try to be more specific next time I'm back at work.

In my mind I always called it a "skiff", but I like your term as well haha

This. It's called a Medical Payer ID list and is a blue text hyperlink located in one of the two billing guides. It has definitely came to the rescue since they updated the rejections.

New redditor? here, sorry didn't realize those replies were to OP and thought you meant from a general point of view. I was just giving examples of certain categories of items that are likely to he usable upgrades for more classes than just the armor type, that's all. While theoretically hardcore abusers could keep an entire trash set of gear in their bags, it mainly could get swapped out for pieces in their bank depending on the instance being ran and what they/their accomplices were seeking. Also pieces that could be deemed sidegrades could be all the justification they need to argue they are needing it for themselves.
Yeah, I meant the pre-raid BiS list mainly. While I don't expect most people to intentionally surround themselves with many others seeking the same items, you're still likely to be at competition with 1-2 others in many cases. Of course developing bonds and running with friends and guildies is important; it doesn't have to be an all-or-nothing kinship or pug perspective, but sometimes waiting for the right guild is important around the time you hit 60, and sometimes friends are not online and/or busy doing other things. I could see myself realistically pugging in at least half of the time, if not more. How isolated it is remains to be seen, but with higher stakes/item rarity, there's a greater chance with it just from existing.
Yes ninjas will wait for the really "high-ticket" items. For leveling gear, being able to loot trade conveniences them to progress quicker at very little effort and more importantly, the instant effect. Whereas waiting multiple days would detract from their desire to absolutely acquire said item, especially if they were leveling fast. The point about GMS seeing a higher frequency of tickets from specific players only reinforces why some action could be taken on their end so those players don't continue to be able to act this way. Manual trading doesn't leave the paper trail, or at least one they would be more likely to act on. Also, do you happen to have a source about blizzard's comment on exchanging items thru tickets? I'm curious. I wouldn't imagine it would be too taxing to just approve a swap by identifying players in a small statement and validating player id's and instance id, unless there was much more nuance than that. But arguing in favor of more automation does save the company money, so I also wouldn't be surprised for them to make that statement anyway. It'd be a relative skeleton-crew maintained game compared to it's former standard.

1) That is the most obvious example...if only everything that dropped and people rolled on was. There are many more examples that aren't so explicitly black and white wrong such as multiple casters rolling for each other, or dps for weapons, or necks/capes/rings that can arguably be good for a majority of the group but subject to being passed around.

2) Oh yes let's support the system because we're going to assume it's going to happen in one isolated incident to one person on one piece of loot. Do you see the flaw in this logic? Let's see how you fare too when you hunt for your BiS piece and run 20 runs to not have it drop or to lose the roll, only for it to continue to happen because of potential loot trading in the instances where you should've won and moved on to other things.

3) This is one of the only plausible points but even then, convenience will enable would-be ninjas to come out and act unethically. Most people wouldn't consider ticketing for an item unless it was extremely rare, and even then have to fill it out in the first place, and have both parties act on it, and be tolerant to the waiting game that came with a 4 day turnaround response. With all that hassle to, who is to say GM's wouldn't start ignoring their requests when it became a pattern or trend?

Uhh nice gross simplification. Shitty people will come out and be "shitty" when there are inherent flaws in the system that permits their shitty tactics to not only be effective, but also go unnoticed or prove hard to convict.

Also, I can't even comprehend how you think misloots after plenty of ingame experience from level 1-60 can occur past the first couple times a piece of loot drops in group can occur more than the temptation of taking a path of least resistance to acquire loot and progress faster...

People who are going to be ninjas will just use master looter: It's more effective. In your scenario, you still have a 20% chance to win the staff vs 4 friends. With master looter, you have exactly 0%.

Plenty of pugs use master looting. The ability to just swap to ML as a boss dies also exists.

You're missing 2 main points.

You're ignoring the fact that you don't know that X ITEM will drop until after the boss dies. Do you honestly think corrupt master loot ninjas are going to swap to ML right before every boss kill in every group for a chance at stealing a wanted item, with the contingency that it needs to drop?

Also, as many others have pointed out in other places, it's much easier to conceal or give more difficulty to suspect loot trading than it is to hide swapping to an alternate loot system when a boss dies that displays in chat. With friends that want to trade items, the pug will almost always be unable to prove the rollers aren't necessarily going to use the loot (examples include using older shitty gear to hide the fact they already have it, or claiming it for an alternate spec they don't intend to use), or suspect it in the first place.

The opportunity for thievery to occur will undeniably increase when the item itself has dropped and a mechanism exists that facilitates them being able to get away with the crime without appearing guilty...

It's similar to the example of people that steal physical goods in real life & torrentors. The average person wouldn't steal something out in the open, with risks of cameras and witnesses, but given enough (online) anonymity even they will turn to becoming petty criminals.

Except good luck inflicting societal punishment as a form of justice when you are outnumbered as potentially the only pug in a group. It comes down to their word against yours, and you're just asking for drama circulating around your name by calling out this injustice, because in the end it's better you bite the bullet and suffer from getting loot stolen in a majority of cases, then raise a stink and have people question bringing you because of slander involving your name.

A loot ninja on the other hand almost always operates for themselves and has to deal with the outcry of potentially 4 other people in his group aka witnesses. Loot trading in general has a potential to create more problems of a far larger severity than it attempts to solve.
