If you two don't knock it off back there I'm going to turn this car around.
But... But... he started it! lol I did edit my log...hopefully that takes care of that.

In one of my caches another user has logged a find, and used to log to completely talk trash about my cache, as well as give away the hide. My first instinct is to just delete the log, but I am afraid of that action being judged against me, so I have done nothing yet. My second instinct is to send a message to the user, asking them to change their log completely or else I will delete the log and that they have 24 hours to comply (but again, I have not taken any action)
OMG!! I can't help but to laugh!!! Her current log is (IMHO) FAR worse than the original one!!!

...
But people can't seem to post their own opinions in logs. Cache owners seem to be quite defensive of their own hides, and any criticism seems to be taken as a personal affront to the person placing the cache. Instead, I believe cache finders should be entitled to their opinions and the ability to express them.
...
Agree completely here. In my own not-so-gentle way, I would say that if you are not willing to accept some negative logs on your caches then you shouldn't hide them.
I don't blame the CO for his emotional reaction. The key is to get over it and realize that you can use the feedback to make your caches better.
To expound a bit with my own intemperate thoughts;
If you don't want negative logs, hide great caches.
A film can at the base of a tree has lame written all over it.
If it really is a film canister at the base of a tree in a forest listed as a small (not a micro) with no hint and 40 foot descrepancy, I would have had a very hard time not letting others know about it in my log and a very hard time not letting my disappointment show.
That is exactly what it was... and not up to the level of caches that I have come to expect from the Duke. hence the point of my log which I have now erased and replaced with the cachers cop out log TFTC...which I HATE by the way because I go to some effort to place a cache and to get a TFTC is like peeing in a cemetary just not ok. But thats what I shall from this point and time sign on Sir Dukes caches so that I dont get made FAMOUS on a message board... flattery I guess???

Then it was not where it was supposed to be.
Then I should have posted a Needs Maintenance? My log was not rude. It was to the point. If you were offended that was not the intent.
-
It's not 40 feet off. The GPS has accuracy of about 40 feet here, like I said, I think it's lying though. When I visit this one about once a year, somehow I still manage to zero in on it.
I feel the container doesn't need camo, because it's sufficiently dark at this place, but also it's not meant to be a hard hide in the first place.
NO it was sitting there on top of the pile not hid at all...that was the point.
-
Better yet why dont I take the high road and change my log......there done. Its all changed. (You really should go take a look at it and FYI I did not just jump to OWNER MAINTENANCE) when I logged. Happy Caching ya'll!

I am the one that wrote the log (thank you to a cacher who saw this and alerted me to the thread). I did write the log and if it was taken as RUDE well thats how it was taken. What I wanted to write was that i was disappointed in this hide from this person because he is capable of much better hides and CALLS OUT THESE KINDS ALL THE TIME. I believe that this could be a replacement and I believe that I did say that in my log (if I did not I had intended to do so) I also intended to send the CO an email alerting him of said cache and its lack of camo. ALSO i noted that I did hide it better than i had found it. Now YES I have deleted logs for my own reasons and I am allowed to do so. Just as Anthony you are allowed to bash my log all you want. I do believe that there are a few in this thread that said that my log was not rude to them and they have seen worse. Well Thank you to them. I did not give away your location. I did not give away your hide. I simply stated that it stuck out like a sore thumb and I did my best to hide it better. I believe that you are still mad because I made a find while you were there and got the log signed and replaced a cache that you still havent found all under your nose. Thats fine you have the right to still be mad. I have the right to not find any more of your caches. Either way you want this to play out is just fine with me....its just a GAME! Dont pick up your crayons and go home and then complain that some are broken. If anything you should be glad that I brought this cache to your attention so that you can go and actually check on it in a timely mannor and make it a cache of your shall we say quality? Rather than the white film canister at the base of a tree in the open that it was before I rehid it.
Have a fantastic day!

I a little bias here but there a Smiley Series in NW Victorville, CA, GC1JERK, established in 2008 with the Groundspeak Series just NE of the Smiley Series GC24C8W. Up Highway 15 past Las Vegas you'll find Kokopelli Series GC29A8E. Coming soon "Peace Series". You got to love GeoArt.
We did the smiley near Victorville and the star with the Kokopelli series along with the alien head in NV to qualify for the challenge cache, 3 State Geo-Art Challenge GC2CJCM. They were all fun geo art's to do.
We jusxt did the Alien head AT NIGHT BY FOOT and it was amazing!
