It appears that the Geocaching Live API is reporting my account as a basic when in fact I am a premium until 7/28/13. Two different apps report me as having no available full downloads but will allow me to do a light download. It was fine on Thursday but not today.

The following text appears on the bottom of the Pocket Queries page.
"If you don't need the files for your GPS or PocketPC, you can also run your Pocket Queries on the search page. This is also a great way to ensure that your Pocket Queries are returning the results you want."
I do know how to view PQ Search results by clicking the "Preview your Pocket Query" icon, but this text implies that you can do the same thing from the search page. How? Also, since even an advanced search is not the same thing as a PQ search why would you even go to the search page to run a PQ?

It seems that I eventually received my PQ but it is taking an extraordinary amount of time to run. Normally I just refresh the page and it is there. Now it is taking more than an hour to process PQs.

I see that the PQ's stopped running for a while yesterday. Well, it appears that they are not running again today. I received one very early this morning but I have new ones that have never been run before that will not run today. Yes, before you ask, the checkbox for today is checked.

Forgive me if this has been mentioned before. I searched for it and didn't find any reference to mystery or unknown caches where the final is an LPC. We do this quite often as it is our view that our mystery or puzzle caches should be rated by their difficulty of finding the solution, not the difficulty in finding the final. We do have exceptions but we have had very positive feedback about our finals being easy to find after a difficult solve. Nothing is worse in our book, of taking weeks or months to solve a puzzle, travel great distances to sign the log, only to not be able to find the cache.

There have been suggestions in the forums that the Groundspeak site should become more like "Facebook". Cyber bullying/bashing is one of things that goes on in Facebook that might start showing up more often if the site starts to become more of a social media platform."
Funny, cyber bullying/bashing started way back in the bulletin board and forum days before Facebook was even dreamed of. This smells just like a good ole fashioned Usenet flame war to me. The only thing that FB has introduced is Trolls. Ha!
Oh, and bash is the superior shell! Macs rule! Delorme beats Garmin! And Androids are better than iPhones!
Friends don't let friends plank! It's all fun and games until someone get hurt!

What do you do when you have already thrown the packaging away? I didn't realize that the item that I had was trackable until I had opened it. It is an HQ Lost and Found Trackable that they gave away on July 4th 2010 for finding 5 landmarks in Fremont. Anyone know what I can do to get it activated?

BTW, I just tried again and the problem appears to have magically fixed itself.
