Maybe it's time to measure these numbers in the RIPE region by trying a time limit experiment. If it doesn't work, we stop it again. We would have to discuss criteria for what "it work" means. That's a discussion I'd like to see on this list. By never trying anything concrete it's easy saying it doesn't work. Fact is, that other players have changed once pressure has been upped.

Well … exactly the same way it has been already implemented in 2 other RIRs, working and no issues.

None of this will make a company who doesn’t want to deal with abuse complaints deal with abuse complaints. It’s a total waste of resources.
Then RIPE has to sanction that member.
So we’re back to: how much will it cost to do this and how much will it actually improve anything?
Which ignores a lot of big questions like: does RIPE actually have the authority to sanction folks, who is going to sanction them, what is the appeals process, how do we get to the sanctioning decision, how are we going to pay for the inevitable lawsuit, and a bunch of other things.
It’s clear, though, that this is actually a much older argument. I’m pretty sure I’m not the first person to ask HOW this will all be implemented. The fact that someone can’t point me to a FAQ or actual proposal addressing these questions tells me how seriously this is being taken by the folks who are proposing it.

Example of ignored Abuse Reports regarding email hacking attempts:
You get countless hacking attempts to your email server (ie. brute-force attacks trying to login as a mail client by using either a valid email login name or some random names; they usually fail b/c of wrong password). It all gets logged in the emailserver logs together with exact timings, so there is enough evidence available for verification.
You send an Abuse Report to the owner of the IP from where these hacking attempts occur.But there is no reaction, the hacking attemps day and night continue. So, it's not just a one-time thing. Even if you block that IP, it still generates traffic and eats-up resources on the server.
We need an effective solution to stop such abuses. RIPE NCC should ask the client to fix the problem and formally inform the RIPE NCC about the fix within 7 days.
If the Abuse Reports still get ignored, then RIPE NCC should issue a 2nd warning and thereafter then terminate or suspend the membership until the issue gets fixed.

For each complaint to RIPE NCC then such an (automated) email should be sent by the RIPE NCC to the abuse-c of that member. This should be the absolute minimum that should be done by the RIPE NCC.

The proposal is to send verification emails to abuse mailboxes and have a link in them clicked, right? I would have no objection to that.
Is there more that is being proposed in this proposal specifically?
