Not your game. I'd leave it alone. Complain to the location or game operator, yes. Let them check.
And unless you can take the glass off and have a level, there is always the chance you are wrong. Or someone else is. And with everybody playing with it, it will only get worse if everybody adjusts it to their thinking.

Quoted from mystman12:Since when can power cycling damage a pinball machine?
Can happen. Especially at power up is when things can happen.
On my original AFM I had a customer win a bunch of games and went to cancel them off. Started the games. Turned the game off. Turned it back on. Blew a few fuses.
I prefer that my customers leave me do anything that needs doing. Then I won't blame them.

Quoted from Zitt:Gotta be honest... I'm firmly in the "don't touch my stuff" camp.
Can't blame you for that. A custom game like your Star Trek that you put a lot of work into. Best leave the owner deal with anything that needs attention. Especially if a player thinks there is a problem and there isn't.

Quoted from jeffspinballpalace:If your game is out of kilter, you should welcome someone trying to help or at least not want to murder him.
You are coming from experience and knowledge on how to do these things. And how the game should be.
Too many people don't know what they are doing, why, or how. Yet forge ahead no matter how bad things get.

Disclaimer : May not want to murder them. Would like to hurt them a little.
Quoted from stangbat:Ops should be tightening down the leg leveler nuts. If you do this, the game will not go out of level unless it is physically moved to a different spot at the location.
Or the customer has a wrench with him. If they think they know best, they'll come prepared.

Quoted from yancy:If I operated pins and one got off-level, I would thank any reasonably capable pinball person for correcting it.
You'll get over that thinking after they F up a couple of your games.

Quoted from Bud:I never did find the silicone feet,
No glue will stick to silicone to make theft a little harder.

Disclaimer : Maybe a leg leveler with the silicone foot molded on it ?
