Most places will take care of abuse issues if they get to the right person, but some places simply won't wake up their network admin at 11:00 on a saturday night because some script kiddie's DSL is getting attacked by another script kiddie on IRC.
You've had good experiences with abuse departments. I'm glad for you. The rest of us have not. Yes, some places ARE helpful when you call with a genuine problem. Most places are not. And honestly, regardless of the reason, shouldn't abuse departments be responsive to this type of thing? DoS attacks often effect more than the end target, they often cause people on immediate surrounding network many problems also.
