This is what I wrote to Groundspeak:
Hello,
I want to propose an extension to the handling of trackable items.
Very often there are TBs or Coins listed to be in a cache but aren´t there.
As you know, there can be multiple reasons for this:
Someone took it out and did not log that
The cache was muggled
...
What I would like is an option for the cache-owner to set trackable items as "not in the cache".
This must not have the same effect as if an owner sets his tb as "missing" but it should remove
the TB from the cache listing.
So cachers that visit the cache are not disappointed that they did not find the TB or Coin there anticipated to be there.
You may say that a cache owner can mail to the TB owner to set the TB as missing,
but I found out that many TB-Owners do not show any reaction of "Did not discover" -mails.
What do you think about this?

Hi,
Thank you for your feedback. I’d be happy to pass this suggestion along to our development team for you. Since this is a concept that affects all geocachers, I am going to suggest that you also post this in the Geocaching.com Web site forum. You can reach this forum at this link http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showforum=8 . Our development team keeps a close eye on that forum as well.
Happy caching!
So what do You think about such a feature?
