Completely agree. I've been trying to find other ways to communicate known issues and so far, things have been running more smoothly. The sad thing is, I have tried pretty much everything you've mentioned in the past, and the outcome was still the same. I've learned that sometimes, people really don't want to hear what you have to say, and they (like myself) need to search elsewhere.
