Having been on both sides of an issue like this one, I'd much rather see polite requests like the original requestor, rather than a 10 page dump on why provider X is severely borked. Good netiquette, seems to me.
so NANOG becomes a paging service with no vetting process? if you need people to tap their contacts because you've exhausted every other avenue, you're gonna have to at least explain, if not prove, why you need someone else on this list to go out of their way to put you in contact with someone (grammarians can hit me in a private email for that sentence). and who knows, in the process of reading that 10 page dump, perhaps someone on the list can not only point out the real problem to you - but put you incontact with an even more appropriate contact. seems more efficient for everyone involved, to me.
