I heard that contacting the New Zealand Commerce Commission could help light a fire under Cryptopia. If you would like to help, please also send them an email.
Here is the body of the message I've sent to

Greetings New Zealand Commerce Commission,
I am writing you today regarding Cryptopia / cryptopia.co.nz , a New Zealand business.
Said company is a cryptocurrency exchange. Part of the function of a cryptocurrency exchange is to temporarily act as a custodian of customer funds in the form of cryptocurrency, while the customer is trading those funds and until the customer requests to withdraw those funds.
Cryptopia, however, has disabled the ability of many customers to withdraw certain types of cryptocurrency without a reasonable explanation as to why, and without a reasonable effort to restore the critical withdrawal function. In my case, I've been waiting 2 months already, and in another 2 weeks a dividend payment to which I am entitled will be paid to Cryptopia.
This situation has led some to suggest that Cryptopia is purposely scamming customers, that they are insolvent, or that they will soon cease operations and run away with customer funds.
Please see the following page for information about the specific cryptocurrency of which Cryptopia has dispossessed me.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/preliminary-scam-accusation-vs-cryptopia-for-holding-customers-funds-2948513I strongly suggest that the Commission looks into this matter towards resolution before it spirals out of control and brings a cascade of bad press to New Zealand.
Kind Regards,
Feel free to use any portions of this in your own email.
