PLANE GO WOOSHHH!! (click “see more”) READ PINNED POST BEFORE POSTING/COMMENTING. Yes, you can complain. We’re not shills and not run by employees. Promise. Special flairs: If you're a UA employee or GS, message mods with proof (badge/UA app profile) and you'll get a flair. Use http://imgbb.com/upload to send proof to attach images. Don't come in here with a low quality rant. You can complain, just don't be an idiot and make sure you ELABORATE on the issue if you need our advice.
