Looking for support from others in the DMD community. 

Are there others with lost coins due to Cryptsy's lack of interest in fixing their DMD wallet issue?  I attempted a withdrawal (to stake) of 2200+ DMD from Cryptsy on 06-29-2014.  At the time of the withdrawal, these were worth approximately .77 BTC, although I realize it is worth considerably less now.  These coins were taken from my Cryptsy wallet and basically disappeared.  I opened a support ticket with Cryptsy and was given generic "we are aware of the issue and are working on it" responses for the first few weeks.  Although I respond to the ticket asking for updates on a weekly basis, Cryptsy has stopped responding and I have heard nothing from them for three weeks.  Since Cryptsy recently added USD, and are a US based company, this gives them responsibility to their customers as a financial institution.  Their lack of concern for their customers, and, indeed, the fact that they do not even feel the need to respond to queries from customers they have stolen funds from is disturbing.  This is no way for a company in the financial sector to act.

I have opened a complaint with the Del Rey Beach (Cryptsy headquarter location) Better Business Bureau.  The complaint number is # 90267759.  The address for the BBB there is http://seflorida.app.bbb.org/search?complaint=Y.  I invite all others in a similar situation to also open a complaint to light a fire under Cryptsy's butt to do something about this.  The more complaints made, the more pressure on Cryptsy to act.

I understand that most of the recent talk has been about how to get away from Cryptsy, but those of us with funds held indefinitely by Cryptsy have no choice but to wait until they finally decide to do something about it.  No other business that handles customers money would be allowed to act this way, and it is time that Cryptsy learned that they can't either.

Any support would be appreciated.  With enough support from the community, we can finally get a resolution to this fiasco.

Other than a  "well said" from UtahJohn, I see that there is no support from the community in trying to recover lost funds from Cryptsy.  I am sure that I am not the only one that Cryptsy has screwed in this, but if the DMD community doesn't care, then I've obviously invested in the wrong coin.  I will continue pursuing Cryptsy for my missing funds, but will dump them when/if finally received.  Moving on to a coin with a community that sticks together.  I have been in touch with the Financial Institution Fraud division of the IRS, and am angry enough to make a goal of getting Cryptsy shut down.  Greed, selfishness, and fraud is the real reason crypto-currency has not gone mainstream.  Good luck in this dead-end, folks!  

What kind of support are you expecting? The problem is obviously coming from Cryptsy. You are not the only one with problems relating to crypty. In fact all those mining at the multipool are in the same position as you. I haven't received a single coin for nearly a week now because of cryptsy.

Here, seems others are also having problems with cryptsy: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=512324.msg5780268#msg5780268 and https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=436149.80

I am sure if I dig I could find more.
