Contact Eligius or F2pool operator:

Or wait until it drops from the mempool then resubmit with proper fee.

I'm not sure what's being asked or what the replies to this thread even mean.
Contact pool operators? What for?

I see that the transaction already has 16 confirmations and was sent with a decent fee in the first place.

Pool operators are miners and it is the miners only who decide which tx they include in the next block they might find. So if you ask them to include a certain tx, they may do it, if they're so inclined.

The tx was on the network 2015-09-15 21:13:18, it is now 2015-09-17 16:58:39 (blockchain.info time). 16 confirmations are about 3 hours. I agree, patience wins the blockchain "game" most of times.

The fee was too low for the amount of data.

I think it's far-fetched to ask a pool operator to specifically include your transaction. I don't think anybody is willing to go through the trouble of doing that.

Like you said, waiting is the best thing you can do or make sure your fee is more than enough to process quickly.

They offer the service, so you'd think somebody is looking for that service. Actually F2Pool service was free for a little while, they shut it with their referral system pretty quick though.

I've heard a lot of people complain about the usefulness of http://eligius.st/~wizkid057/newstats/pushtxn.php.
I've always thought it was broken but I'm not sure.
