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.. I ban shills. Promise. Special flairs: If you're a United employee or Global Services, PM /u/Player72 with proof (ID badge etc) and you'll get a special flair. Don't come in here with a low quality rant without any additional info. You can complain, just don't be an idiot and make sure you ELABORATE on the issue if you need our advice.
