What exactly is the withdrawal issue? Is it only some stuck, or no one is getting any money out? If it is the former then there might be still hope that it is due to incompetence.
Some people claim instant withdrawals and some claim they've been waiting for months. After Mt. Gox I wouldn't take any chances. If you don't mind trading derivatives I suggest using Bitshares' decentralized exchange. More volume is needed on there though before it is truly a great solution. Volume is very low except in the BTC/BTS/USD/CNY markets.
Edit: Oh wait.. I remember you. You really hate Bitshares from what I remember from our previous conversations. Disregard my comment.
