Title: reporting faulty members (not ourselves) from current primary. 

This covers the case where instances die and scout (mostly) ignores a disappearing instance.

We had an instance that went offline for weeks (secondary) and was completely unaware other than the innocuous "node stopped reporting" email that we summarily ignored. If we don't hear about things in hipchat, we don't hear about them. This elevates this case to a triggerable condition.
