Seriously y'all read the rules. Use the Megathreads

Today alone, before lunch, I have removed twenty-odd posts about The Crash. We are getting so much abusive modmail from people upset that we aren't pulling them fast enough, or that their content is being pulled while others' is seemingly allowed which it isn't it was threads that existed before the Megathread went up.

Please read the rules. Please report people who are breaking the rules and most of all please stop sending hate messages to your all-volunteer mod team because clearly listed rules aren't being followed.

Whale Sanctuary Project Response

With the news that the Marineland Orca will be sent to Spain rather then Canada after over a year of waiting the Whale Santuary Project has issued a formal response. https://whalesanctuaryproject.org/whale-sanctuary-project-responds-to-french-decision-to-transfer-wikie-and-keijo-to-loro-parque-zoo/?fbclid=IwY2xjawR1jGVleHRuA2FlbQIxMQBicmlkETBHNWZ4VEZTYXY3N1ZId1Zuc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHnVbJClACuMyeTBLdrpYybwW7QgzHuVO15Bvg5hqhkMD6H60nfszRYoNCPTa_aem_GOzVXcIRbbBAcHqikPc66Q To the surprise of very few of us they are highly upset but even now have provided zero project updates proving they were ever capable of opening much less opening by this Summer as they originally promised.

Hello friends. I am taking a trip from Richmond to Baltimore to catch a flight the next day out of country for a few weeks. Apparently, it's the Carolinian instead of my familiar Northeast Regional. I usually book business class on NER if I have multiple bags and my rollator as I have found they are less likely to load me into a car already full where I can't safely find my seat. I have booked extra assistance getting on but I know it can be more questionable getting off and in this case I don't have my rollator but my cane but I do need help with bags and getting off safely and quickly.

TLDR I usually book business on NER to be safe. This time I apparently didn't and its the Carolinian. I have a cane and two bags. Should I upgrade to business (currently about $40 for a good bid) to be safe about being able to get a seat and help?

I booked tickets to Germany next month. When I booked my Global Entry status was still in progress. I now have it and my flight is in two weeks. I was told to make sure it gets added to my boarding pass/ticket. I don't see a way to do it. Elizabot says to do it from manage booking. When I try to manage my booking they tell me I can't do it online and need customer support. I called customer support and they said I needed to add it at booking or on the website but I can't figure out where. (although they did help me add student status which won't help this flight but is nice) I'm just lost at what I'm supposed to be doing here.

Someone posted this morning about not getting a refund on a tattoo deposit. Another commentator, not OP looked at the screen shots of the refund policy OP had posted. Determined what shop it was and posted this comment.

OP too classy to, but I'm not.
OP posted a screen shot from their website.
Also mentioned what country they are from.

A ten second Google later...
Boom.

*for your viewing pleasure only of course. please do not contact the shop or leave reviews or do anything else reddity. merely an fyi so you know which shop to avoid.

We removed it this morning as soon as we saw it and ultimately purged the thread. However, looking at reviews for the business, it is clear they had a fantastic reputation until this morning when the post was made they now have a page of abusive one star reviews and have taken down their social media to avoid more. We banned the user although they claim that was overeach since it was public information and they told people just to warn them. Is there anything else we can/should do?

Update: It was even the wrong shop I feel so bad for them
