I totally agree. It is upsetting with how many folks don't do the responsible thing with trackables or caching in general for that matter. It is supposed to be a fun and enjoyable thing and many times it is not. When bosac and I first started geocaching we would try to figure out what happened and try to correct the problems or contact those we felt caused the problem. Try to explain how things are done. Sometimes people still didn't get it. I recently released a TB and it has gotten lost due to it not being dropped into the cache. I checked the person's profile and it appears that this happens regularly for them. Beware of tkahike1. Either he'll lose your trackable or he'll steal it. Perhaps a laminated attached info card with the trackables wouldn't be such a bad idea after all. Maybe it would help those that aren't computer savy to do the proper thing with the trackables. One can only hope right? Oh and yes, how many times do you go to a cache expecting to trade when an item that is listed there isn't there? Many times. I think those people that can't log them right away should not take them. There is a cacher locally who typically won't log for 3 or more days. Occasionally you'll get a log entry from a few months ago.

I hid a cache and it was stolen twice. It was a cute metal 1-up mushroom. So, I'd say when found they decided they wanted it.

Read this TBs story: TBHZ0E It's too funny.

2 wheelbarrows full of stuff. 2 TVs, VCRs, DVD Players, CDs, DVDs. They had been there so long the tires were flat and some of the items damaged. We left the items fearing they could be stolen or damaged completely. So, have left it for others to see on their way to a cache.

Yes, a cache where you have to get 6 ft up and then use a tool or combination of tools to reach 7 ft down a pipe and attempt to grasp the cache while in plain view of a very popular dog park. This one took 10 trips. 3 to locate plus 4 did not attempt due to high volume of muggles/doggles and 3 attempts with various combinations of tools to finally complete.

You gotta read this story of this TB: TBHZ0E It's too funny.

The scariest moment has to be when I came by a human foot as the cache. Although not real it was still creepy especially when soon after there was a real person who had been found dead in that park a couple months later.
