It's not about whether they're easy to implement or not (though in fact quite a few of the things I've seen suggested, though not all of them, would be pretty easy). The point is that they're necessary to implement, at least some of them. And easy or hard, they're all still well within SE's capabilities. And so far we've gotten none. Nor have we even gotten any comments from SE regarding which out of all those suggestions they may be implementing soon, or even acknowledging that there's any reason to do anything at all.

All SE has said on the topic is that their current pattern of banning an occasional RMT account here and there (generally weeks or months after the problems start with it) should be plenty. They don't seem to regard it as a problem that would justify doing anything else. The whole point of this thread (and a great many others) is to point out to them that that isn't a very accurate assessment. It IS a real problem, and a pretty major one. If SE hopes to maintain their NA customer base (which they've claimed is pretty important to them), then they'd better start looking at their NA servers once in a while.
