  1. My guess is that that Jim Shilt guy isn't very eloquent and is doing a poor job of explaining it to them, that has to be the only reason that so many people are not understanding the game.

    ;)

     

    Your doing just fine...so I wont post over there... :P

    Same here, you've got WAY more patience then me!

    Amen Mopar...alot of them are less then computer savvy... and reading way more into things then needed...

  2. Great shades of "The Salem Witch Hunt!"

     

    Reading over there last night was a look into how fast people get hysterical about things before even studying what they are reading over here.

     

    I wonder if they realize how many policemen, firemen, military personel, ministers, Drs., RNs, EMTs, etc. are registered a geocachers.

     

    And YES, I realize we could have some bad people registered also. But chance are, there are probably bad guys registered over there, who find information on that site useful to themselves as well.

     

    What is sad, is getting slammed without them even realizing how family oriented this sport is...

  3. I'm not crazy about them because when they get plundered a whole lot of TB's go bye-bye.

    Exactly!

     

    It also does not help when the TB Hotel owner repeatedly takes TBs out of the surrounding caches to populate "their" hotel.

     

    Supplying a larger cache container to ease the movement of TBs is one thing,

    turning into a full time job and sticking restrictions on those who wish to take them is quite another! :rolleyes:

  4. Not caching...its 105F out right now, so staying in and staying cool. Did some light yard work this morning, fixed biscuits and gravy for woofs breakfast. Will do Rib steaks and garlic on the grill in awhile, with pear cobler and ice cream for dessert.

    Right now have a gin and tonic! :D

     

    And daughter leaves in 1/2 hour for her 15 hour flight to Korea. She has an 18 month tour of duty, then she is leaving the service after 13 years.

  5. I don't think I have ever attended an event where I got log more than 3-4 temp caches on the event page. And even that's only occurred twice. 100 seems a tad excessive.

    I agree with you wholeheartedly.

     

    Aren't events supposed to be about eating good food, meeting people, and maybe doing a little caching?

     

    In my humble opinion, if you're setting up 100 temporary caches for an event, than the event is no longer about meeting people, or eating food, it's about trying to find as many caches as possible...

    You are wise beyond your years Grasshopper :)

     

    I agree!

  6. From the discription, I would guess its someone "signature" item.

    These are trade item that are usually personally made by a geocacher to leave as swag, so they are unique. Alot of geocachers collect sig items. Depending on your location, you will probably run into a variety these often. :o

     

    43 probably means he/she has left 42 others somewhere.

  7. Hey Everybody, I found my first cache....

     

    I'm not sure if I found it because of my GPS or the clue given.

     

    No matter which, I found one.

     

    Thanks to all for the push to try learning my GPS unit. :laughing:

    Stickwalker...you might like to check out the local boards Here see if you can email or meet with some geocachers from your local area.

    They can be an invaluable source of information for you!

  8. I hope you have more success than I had when I suggested the "small animal" cache type. Due to the rigid rules of this site, which stifle my creativity, I instead need to leave my signature hamsters in existing geocaches. You might find yourself shoehorned by "The Man" into the same restrictive corner of the caching world.

    Hey Lep...you could always put a rock inside the hamster! That way they would not jump out of the cache so quick.

     

     

    They only problem I could see happening, is that the rock would somehow stand out because it is out of place for the area and therefor it would be subject to being taken by someone other than a cacher. Also this type of cache is too easily moved by slides, mud etc. It would be too problematic.

  9. But hey.... gave a few of you "Geo-Snipers" out there something to comment on!

     

    I particularly liked the link to a thread that was closed 9 months ago.

     

    Good luck in politics!

     

    In fairness, thanks to those few that cut me some slack and actually added some intellectual content.

     

    Some people have class!  Some are lame in expressing their dissatistfaction, so if it bored you... keep it to yourself or actually provide feedback that is less juvenile than an 'involuntary lack of oxygen response'

     

    Must be tough dealing with mortals!

    Wow......I must say your posting style seems really familiar......

     

    once again.....you asked for it....now you are asking for slack.....

     

    Any suggestions, remarks, snipes are welcome.

  10. I made the effort to not repeat a current thread, and what I really needed was a smart-a** reply about MOPAR (and not even from MOPAR I might add, nice to see some people looking forward to his reply. Would I refer to you as CRABBE or GOYLE? Not implying that MOPAR would be MALFOY, just that those giggling about what he will say resemble them!)

    Any suggestions, remarks, snipes are welcome.

     

    :lol: The Blue Quasar

     

    Hey.....you asked for it...... <_<

  11. Well now...first you actually have to propose a new word, then get it to catch on to the point it replaces muggle.

     

    I haven't seen anything better come along. I have seen it suggested and the guy even came up with a word and then dissapeared.

    Not to mention...not many months ago, this was one of the most heated topics on here........ <_<
