There's nothing bad about this method at all, and it allows you to run mods - not my fault if you choose not to use it. You could even use a compression software to archive and compress the backed up data to make it take up slighly less space. Make two copies of the data folder, one that acts as a backup and one that acts as a vanilla data folder to quickly switch to if you want to play vanilla. That being said, the method is entirely easy. The servers were run by the company 'Gamespy' and they recently shut down.
