I mean surely it would be best to just disable the change email address option? If you wanted to use a new email why not just create a new account with that email address? This would stop hackers, sellers, less work for the mods, less scams from bought accounts, etc.
I was hacked a month ago, it was only complete luck that I got my account back. I messaged this (hacked) account from my secondary I don't really use and they returned it to me, although this won't be the same for many others as that won't happen and they will just lose control of the account or have it locked. I really had no idea people could take over your account completely just by using the password, seems like a giant flaw in security really that the mods have to spend their time dealing with and it just seems unnecessary.

There really is a chance to recover their account i.e. if they really own it and besides not all of those cases are because of the user's negligence since some are compromised ndue to the database leak like hilariousetc.
The admins have their own reasons why it takes time to recover those accounts. Some users recovered their account in a matter of days, weeks and even months.
Also, you can't just expect people to never even try to recover their account.

It's annoying but probably not as annoying as it is for those who can't get access back to their account. I don't think people should expect that they'll never get their account back and this certainly shouldn't be the accepted practice. Most of the current hacked accounts aren't really coming from poor security on the users part either but from having their password broken from the leaked pass hashes when the forum was compromised (so not really their fault).
My impression is, that the numbers of threads about hacked accounts are going down, since the new security feature has been implemented.
There are nearly only threads from buyers/hackers, who changed emails and got "their" new accounts blocked by owners.
