    It's weird, because I tried to let my buddy log into my account during beta (he lives in WA and I live in MI) and an error popped up and SE locked my account until I changed my password. Do they not do that anymore?

    As far as I was aware, this was supposed to happen until you manually disabled the option. One person I know that got hacked had actually disabled this, and as such, had no idea his account was accessed.

    You get suspended if someone obtains access to your account and uses it to shout for RMT. That is currently what I am going through.

    I recieved no email from SE until 3 days after my account was suspended. So I would have to say no, they don't.

    My account was recently accessed by an unknown person and used to shout for RMT. I didn't change settings as far as security goes. Unless they somehow managed to mask their IP as mine. Suppose it's not beyond the realm of possiblity.
