Just to get to the nuts and bolts of it, I appealed a claim decision. The denial was June 2012, I appealed it through my vso just before the deadline, 2013 via certified mail. It's been over 2 years and the appeal status still states "at local office"
Honestly I never thought anything of it until I started reading through Hadit. Now I'm reading some people who are asking about NODs after 16-18 months... should I be converted? I've written an iris letter asking for a status update but have not heard back.

Keep asking. As long as you got the NOD in before the deadline your appeal should be alive. Can you visit your VARO and ask to see your C-File. You NOD should be in that file. If the VA says they

IRIS states they get back to you in 5 business days. It has been my experience that its more like not at all, or until you send a second IRIS annotating the first and they reply 3-4 weeks after that.
