This is known as "loot-sniffing". An entire guild got banned for it during BC for sniffing till they got Glaivez. Blizz looks down upon it, and I think they might actually have taken measures to stop it.
This is either rumor, or the poster is lying through his teeth.
...stated that even though it is cached to drop on the server, it still cannot be linked until actually looted...
True. You cannot play the instance like that.
After killing a mob, the loot is determined by RNG (Random Number Generation), where it pulls from a database of possible drops. Until you kill that mob, loot isn't generated. Thus, all you'll accomplish from running in and out of an instance and resetting is wasting your time, unfortuanately.
Blizzard confirmed that loot is determined upon mob spawning.
You are wrong.

@nicalapegus As the saying goes, put up or shut up.
I'm not quite sure you understand that saying's meaning...

Uh well that may be.
But I don't see what this has to do with, well, anything?
