Or caches not in the PQ because of parameter selection.
no they should be covered no problem with parameters
and why are you so certain it should?...unless you post those parameters its quite impossible to figure out why they don't show up
-
i am willing to pay more too but heck $100 is too steep even for my willingness lol
-
that was just nasty, you had to keep moving otherwise you would sink in the mud lol
-
there are two separate sections to make changes to, the "Your Location" deals with coordinates the "Your Profile" deals with city and province/state in the "location" line...however i do believe that the line "address", which is not visible to the public, is the one that will show you the correct list of newest caches at the right location

Internet Explorer is still the most popular browser in the world, and should be supported.
very wrong, as an IT person your husband should know

i am not saying you should change your browser, i agree that GS should support all the popular ones...but saying that IE is the most popular its not true

Reasons we never hike unarmed anymore.
where i live the only vicious things i need to worry about are mosquitoes so i have a really hard time imagining how exactly being armed is going to help you against a snake, or what exactly is the purpose of being armed?
ever hear of snake shot, available in many different calibers it does wonders on snakes, I've probably run more snake shot through my S&W mod 19
then anything else
nope, that's why i'm asking
what i am wondering is if they are so fast in attacking how would you have time to shoot them or you supposed to shoot them just in case?

archived caches do not show on the maps nor will they be in any PQ's
unless you know the GC code you have no way to track it on the site
btw disabled and archived are completely different things, you can still see the disabled caches on the maps and run PQ's for them
and caches are never deleted

Yeah, there is. I have met and know a number of them personally. I don't see any reviewer icons in that group.
i can't even begin to imagine why there have to be that many employees, the site says 40 but that picture has 64 including the frog :anibad:lol
and what exactly does a reviewer icon look like?
-
awesome, thank you

edit: you might want to add your Location, perhaps that will fix it

I don't see a hell of a lot of costs in your operation either (being personally savy in such things).
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: I don't think you're nearly as savvy as you might think.
For starters, I bet the salary for all these Lackeys adds up pretty quick.
Then we'd have to add in rent, utilities, hosting, bandwidth, and the list would go on and on.
you got to be kidding, there's no way there are that many paid lackeys, surely that must include the reviewers...or is just plain a simple a joke lol
-
it must have been during the "101 missing days" as seen in this picture from the newsletter, which now it is fixed to correctly read "362"

You say you have to guess the username/password? If this were me and I came to a webpage where I had to enter information without any knowlege of what it was I'd be upset too. I wouldn't know that they did't want personal info. With all the problems of identity theft and malware designed to infiltrate your computer and steal info guess I'd have to wonder about using the website too. Maybe you just need to take the info on the webpage ( the final encryption for the cache) and put it into a physical cache somewhere (multi).
seriously?

while i understand the concern of a sudden exodus of people on an otherwise quiet country road i have recently come across someone taking it upon themselves to restrict access to a trail which has one single cache there since 2005
it is a public trail yet they put up dollar store "no parking" signs
tail entrance is a good distance past their home and with lots of space for a couple of cars to park plus their home is way back away from the road
further more the conservation authority owns the trails and the city owns the road, nowhere does it say it is a private road
-
who would know the guidelines better than the reviewers? so if it was published it is within the guidelines but then again i've seen situations where they go back on their original decision
personally i say it is within the guidelines, we have a few similar ones here
people concerned with web pages logging their visits should not use the internet at all, they should perhaps educate themselves that every page they go to logs their visit
are they even aware that PM caches only has an audit log?

let me guess you're using IE?
try a different browser, i can print them just fine from FF following the printer friendly link from the cache page
What is WRONG with useing IE I would guess about 50% use it so why shouldn't GC gome up with something that will work with IE. Why should I change browser, why should I upgrade Windows, I didn't break it GC did it all??????????????????????
when you calm down please show me where i said to change it...i said TRY...big difference
and no, IE is not the browser of choice for that many people, tbh unless you're forced to use it by policies at work, anyone at home has no excuse for using that snail browser
updating windows? i haven't said that either but regardless you NEED to apply the updates to windows for your own good/safety and for having a computer that works properly
GC didn't break anything, they replaced one map with another...not as pretty as google but that's a different subject
the problem is in your own "backyard"....works just fine for many and everyone else except for the couple of people that posted in this thread...i say that's a pretty good indication the problem lies in your PC and settings
and for the love of God stop breaking the quote tags

I'm also getting a blank page when trying to print with the new maps, even after changing the compatibilty view. Has anyone figured this out?

Every time there has been a change in the maps there has been an outcry that Groundspeak has taken away something that geocachers have come to depend on. Every time there has been a change to the maps there have been legitimate issues with the new maps not performing as well as expected. Yet every time there has been a change in the maps, Groundspeak has worked to address issues and in the long run everyone probably agrees that the mapping solution has improved over the years.
over one year in BETA state with pretty much no improvements/changes is your idea of "addressing the issue"?
Well, they did fix the beta map issue, now didn't they.
no kidding eh?

I fully understand that Google have started charging for their maps, but you know what, I paid Groundspeak for a service which included these maps and now Groundspeak aren't delivering it. To me this seems very unfair.
Nowhere in the "Premium Membership" section does it say that a particular set of maps is a PM benefit.
http://support.Groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.book&id=5
"Maps" are not exclusive to PM's, so I don't see the connection between the two.
There's nothing in your premium membership that has been compromised by this change.
B.
this "See a complete list of benefits." implies that only PM members have access to the maps
i have no idea if that is true though, i've only been a regular member for couple of weeks and i wasn't even caching during that time, as soon as i went out for my first one i became PM
if that were true i don't see how the current PM's can generate 2 million loads per day in excess of the 25K free to make GC pay the suggested $3mil/year
-
today is the maps who's to say what will they take away tomorrow, and the day after and so on?
I for one have been paying PM for the past almost 4 years for the sole purpose of supporting GC, there's two of us in the household paying for PM so i really don't need to, i probably run only a couple of PQ's on my account in the last 3 years, but i do renew every year because i believe GC does have some considerable expenses to keep this hobby going, i am even willing to pay around $5 more a year...however if they start taking things away i will reconsider my support
If they kept the maps and started charging more, you'd reconsider your support as well. Either way, they can't win... seems like they decided to stick to their pledge that a free membership would always be available, instead. They promised us that... they never promised us a rose garden eternally free maps.you obviously can't read all i said
... bolded for you maybe that makes it more clear and you don't assume what i will or not do -
Did you mark them as 'collectable'?
No, they are NOT marked as "Collectible".
regardless of what the page says...they are in your COLLECTION rather than in your INVENTORY
you need to move them to your inventory...go to the trackable page and on the right hand side where it says "actions" the default will be "move to inventory"...click "go"

got to "edit your profile", its down at the bottom
:lol:
